Trump softens his stance on prediction markets: Other countries are doing it, and the U.S. cannot be left behind

According to Cointelegraph, U.S. President Trump showed a noticeable softening of his stance just days after criticizing prediction markets. He stated, "I know some very smart people who like prediction markets. Many other countries are doing this, and if we don't do it, other countries will isolate us."

Previously, Trump had expressed his dissatisfaction with prediction markets at the White House, stating that the whole world has turned into a casino, and he "conceptually dislikes" such things.
