Prediction Markets Go to Washington(‘s Appeals Court)

As of the time I’m writing this, the contracts are still halted. The appeals court scheduled a hearing for Thursday, giving each party 15 minutes to make its case – though ultimately it ran for some 2.5 hours. We’ll presumably find out if the contracts can restart before the election happens after the hearing, but there’s no firm timeline here. And of course, there’s still the broader question about the appeal itself and how that may go.
