👮 #BTC #ETH #黑马 Legal Risks of Prediction Markets:

Crypto lawyer Jin Jianzhi analyzes blockchain prediction markets, which aggregate information requiring skill for social value, unlike traditional gambling. The US treats them as derivatives (CFTC-licensed), while China classifies them as gambling.

In China, operators face charges for "operating a casino," and fee-based KOLs may incur accomplice liability. Support providers aiding these markets are also at risk. Ordinary users generally have no criminal liability but may face administrative penalties for large stakes.

Sensitive topics heighten risks, and while there are few cases, existing precedents apply. Compliant markets are unlikely to emerge in the short term outside the US. #regulation link
