HubDub will get quoted in the future, just like the Hollywood Stock Exchange is, today… — PROBABILITY = 33%, AT BEST.
HubDub CEO Nigel Eccles:
I fully appreciate the work that Emile and others have done but just because something hasn’t worked before doesn’t mean it can’t happen. [...] Sometimes ideas take time and a fresh perspective before they achieve their full potential. [...]

Nearly all leading academics, not known for their attraction to unanimity, have publicly supported event markets. A great majority of these academics [...]
InTrade CEO John Delaney’s comment to the CFTC about “event markets” (prediction markets) was so good that even a BetFair shareholder loved it.
Sean Park (who invested in Betfair at inception):
[...] I was heartened to read John Delaney’s (InTrade CEO) contribution [...]. I would certainly have endorsed this contribution – well crafted, robust, articulate and (imo) stating the blindingly obvious [...].

Yes, his input was great, but, alas, it won’t win in the end.

Science comes to the rescue of the “leading academics” suffering lapses of memory —those who, on Monday, signed on to be on the board of the Prediction Market Industry Association, which is supposed to lobby for the legalization of InTrade’s real-money prediction markets in the United States of America —and, on the next Tuesday, signed Bob’s puritan and sterile petition.

Pssttt… Did I tell you that I like InTrade CEO John Delaney’s comment to the CFTC about “event markets” (prediction markets)? I can’t remember whether I did tell you that already. (I do suffer memory lapses, sometimes. I know it’s a common affliction, because I see that Robin Hanson and Justin Wolfers, just before they signed Bob’s puritan and sterile petition, completely forgot that they were on the board of the Prediction Market Industry Association, which is supposed to lobby for the legalization of InTrade’s real-money prediction markets in the United States of America. A lapse in memory, probably.)

Nearly all leading academics, not known for their attraction to unanimity, have publicly supported event markets. A great majority of these academics have been supplied with Intrade market data in the past, a service that Intrade intends to continue, for all study leads [...]
