There's a massive misconception floating around: prediction markets aren't gambling. They're information aggregation tools where participants stake capital on outcomes based on research and analysis. Unlike casino games with fixed odds, these markets reflect collective intelligence and real-world probabilities. Big difference.

Well said, finally someone explains it clearly. Gambling is purely based on luck, while prediction markets rely on your research and judgment, which are different.

Damn, finally someone said it. These people just can't tell the difference between prediction markets and gambling. Truly unbelievable.

Haha, it's just stubborn talk. No matter how nicely you put it, you're still gambling with real money...

Haha, here you go whitewashing prediction markets again. At the end of the day, it's still just gambling...

Damn, this take is really spot on. Casinos and prediction markets are basically the same concept, just rebranded as "information aggregation" to make them sound different.

Damn, someone finally said it. Prediction markets have just been demonized—a bunch of people criticize them as gambling without even understanding what they are...

Well, this logic... does make some sense, but to put it bluntly, it's still betting money—just packaged in a more formal way.
