To my mind, the DMO advisory is the more newsworthy of the two releases today. It shows the Commission’s sharp focus on the potential for market abuse and that it may need more information from DCMs than it is currently receiving to evaluate event contracts.

Today the @CFTC and @MLB made history by signing the first-ever MOU between a sports league and federal agency. We’ve committed to work together to protect the integrity and resilience of prediction markets relating to professional baseball. Through this partnership, the @CFTC is well-positioned to add additional tools to protect our markets from fraud, manipulation, and other abuses. Thanks to @MLB and Commissioner Manfred for working with us to protect the integrity of these growing markets. Read the full MOU⬇️ cftc.gov/PressRoom/Pres…
