Wait- why isn't there any conflict of interest statement provided in this paper?
Because it's not required and not common practice in our field at this stage. But none of us (I'm one of the authors) is affiliated with or has a financial interest in any prediction market platform.
Isn't it common practice and required to disclose a conflict of interest? Just not to explicitly say there are none.
Yes, when you submit for publication. In our field, you rarely see one for pre-prints, unless you have one to disclose.
Thanks for the clarification. Given the scrutiny on these platforms, this is timely done. Thanks.
