The agreement aims to strengthen the protection of the integrity of professional baseball and cooperate on potential risks in prediction markets, including preventing fraud, market manipulation, and other misconduct. According to the MOU, both parties will share information within a legal framework to respond more quickly to related events and identify emerging trends in advance. CFTC Chairman Michael S. Selig stated that this move will help improve the integrity and resilience of prediction markets and provide regulators with more tools to protect market participants.
