With traditional sports betting, the masses lose — the money goes to the bookmaker, who has baked in his margin. Prediction Markets work in a fundamentally different way.
Instead, money flows from those who don't know to those who get it right — through risk management, portfolio diversification and disciplined capital deployment. You can trade 24/7, build and unwind positions, and wait for the binary resolution of the event.
Those who understand this aren't speculating — they're engaging in systematic trading.
