Survey finds 81% of US adults call prediction-market sports trading betting
A Morning Consult survey commissioned by Gambling Is Not Investing found that 81% of 15,029 US adults surveyed from 17 to 22 March viewed trading on sports outcomes through prediction markets as betting. The report said a similar share supported state gaming rules for those products, while 77% were concerned about access for users aged 18 and potential gambling-related harm.
The polling adds public-opinion evidence to discussions over how sports-related prediction markets should be regulated.
