Prediction Firms Are Flagging Insider Traders. Many Will Not Face Charges.

Experts believe that the agency responsible for regulating the industry lacks the necessary staffing, legal tools, and motivation to effectively crack down on easily manipulated wagers. As a result, many individuals flagged for potential insider trading are unlikely to face charges. Prediction firms are identifying suspicious activity, but the agency's limitations hinder its ability to take action. The lack of enforcement allows some individuals to continue making potentially illicit wagers without consequence.
