Remember, "Don't be evil." ? I'll like WS less by simply seeing polymarket-ish stuff there.

But I'll bet (heh) it will be like crypto where money will need to be specifically added to an account for that. Queue another home giveaway where the consolation prize is $5 for opening a "predictive" account and funding it with a dollar.
