**Executive summary**  
Prediction markets increasingly misprice thin, binary contracts when event resolution is opaque, correlated with securities, or subject to insider‑driven flows, creating edge cases that sophisticated forecasters can exploit if they model structural frictions and regulatory constraints. The real edge today lies not in pure “wisdom‑of‑crowds” bets but in identifying where markets systematically under‑weight execution risk, governance shifts, and cross‑venue information leakage.
