Prediction markets allow speculators to bet directly on events, as opposed to betting on the market’s reaction to said events. They can be used as hedging tools and also as a place to place bets on real-world unknowns, such as whether or not the BTC ETF will get approved by X date.
I don’t know how the market is going to react if the ETF is approved, but I do think it will be approved. I’ve been using Polymarket to facilitate this bet. Purely trading the news is taking a load off of my back, so if anybody is pulling their hair out trying to predict ETF PA, this is what I would do if I were you.
