Gate News message, April 28 — U.S. President Donald Trump has significantly softened his position on prediction markets just days after criticizing them. Trump 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 leave us out.”
This marks a notable shift from Trump’s earlier criticism, when he expressed he was “not happy” with prediction markets, claiming “the whole world has become a casino” and that he “conceptually” disliked the idea.
