Prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket don’t use the typical language that most betting sites use. Instead, they use words that make betting feel like investing, framing the activity in a more positive and productive light. This changes how you feel about betting on these sites, making it feel less risky. You haven’t “lost money”, you’ve “taken a loss on your investment portfolio.” 60% of prediction-market sports bettors believed winning was down to skill, compared with 50% of sportsbook users. Prediction markets feel more sophisticated and skill-based, but carry the same dangers as traditional gambling. Gamban recognises this, and blocks all prediction markets, CFDs, cryptocurrency exchanges, binary options, forex trading and event contracts.
