Prediction Markets & Event Contracts
Venues offering exchange-listed event contracts.
What this category covers
Prediction market venues list contracts whose payout depends on the outcome of a defined event. In the United States these are typically regulated as designated contract markets by the CFTC. Contract structure, fees and settlement rules differ by venue.
