$150 billion Extracted in April from Polymarket and Kalshi Prediction market!

Prediction markets are gamble in the sheeps clothing. So it's not like a pure compliant and regulated market. But they seem to be getting a lot of money due to the bots and the agents that are doing the prediction market. So now they seem to be adding up on the cashflow. Like spreading funds across many questions and extracting the good output from them, slowly that does add up. 

In April the combined output of these two added the 150B where the market seems to have done a good response from the spendings there. 

Prediction market remains under the watch of variety of the nations as these bets happen to impact the results of real life some of the time. And by capping it on them and also watching them for compliance and type of questions moderation, it makes sense on the market side that things like this change too. So lets see by the end of the year where does that stand and how they make money.
