Does it need to be regulated? This isn’t pension funds placing bets risking people’s investment money. People using Polymarket are gambling on pretty random things and must understand the risk , whether it is on major geopolitical events or someone counting cars going through a junction these events can all be manipulated pretty easily. People want to gamble on random things? Let them. If anything is regulate the other side, people in government can’t use sites like polymarket because I don’t want them making stupid decisions so bets fall one side or another. | ||

I think making the bets not anonymous is sufficient imho. If a gov't official (including the president) is leaking classified information, there's already laws about that isnt there? (Whether it's effective is another question - i'm assuming it's currently effective). | ||
