Nearly All Volume on FIFA-Linked Prediction Market Is Circular Trading
A Wall Street Journal report finds that almost all trading volume on a prediction market tied to FIFA consists of circular trading — trades that effectively pass between the same parties rather than reflecting genuine market activity. The finding raises questions about the platform's reported volume figures and the reliability of activity metrics across prediction markets more broadly.
Why now: New reporting exposes inflated trading activity on a FIFA-linked platform, drawing skepticism about prediction market volume claims.
