Didn't read past the paywall, but if your take on this is not "Whoah, Greenland might actually be bought by the US" and is instead "wow gambling is bad" I'm at awe.

There's potential problems that might come from the benefits of prediction markets, like insiders getting incentivized to change the outcome or leak info.

But gambling is an old problem which emerges in many scenarios, casinos, card games, sports betting, financial markets, crypto.

This take is like a new hooters opening up on the moon and people complaining that there's alcohol addiction, food addiction, sexism, wage exploitation... yeah I know man, but it's on the moon!
