Stopping insider trading
Markets only work when the price reflects honest, public information. Trading on inside knowledge — or manipulating an outcome you can influence — is prohibited on Prediity, full stop. Here's how we screen for it, catch it, and punish it.
Screening
We proactively screen to prevent insider trading
01
Connected persons
Anyone who can influence or has non-public knowledge of a market's outcome — event participants, organizers, insiders — is prohibited from trading that market under our rules.
02
Restricted accounts
Admins maintain a restriction list that blocks flagged identities from broker trading and withdrawals — and it follows the identity, so re-registering under a new account doesn't lift it.
03
Frozen on suspicion
Suspicious accounts are frozen immediately — before profits can be withdrawn — while the investigation runs.
Surveillance
Detect → Investigate → Enforce
01
Detect
Every trade is recorded with full context. We review anomalous timing, win-rate irregularities, and coordinated activity across accounts — and every action leaves an audit trail.
02
Investigate
Flagged accounts are frozen. We review funding sources, trading history, and connected accounts before deciding whether a violation occurred.
03
Enforce
Confirmed violations result in confiscation of profits, suspension, or a permanent ban — and the identity is added to the restriction list.
Transparency
The crowd is our forensics weapon
100% of trades and settlements on Prediity are publicly visible in the Explorer. Anyone can inspect trading patterns, and users regularly report suspicious activity. Public data makes it very hard for insiders to hide.
Our belief
