This can be deleted or moved if there is another place where this is being discussed, none of the existing threads seemed to fit the bill.

Anyone have any opinions on what to do with existing contracts, how secure balance are? Would assume there is going to be a massive run.

I guess the regulatory body basically pulled approval and it is shutting down.

Contracts beyond Feb 2023 are cratering so people are either gonna be screwed there or the site will just make everyone whole.

Here's what you need to know:

The security of trader funds will not be affected by this action
We intend to continue operating existing markets for trading through Feb. 15, 2023 unless they resolve sooner under their respective market rules
In light of this decision, we are halting the addition of new markets
No determination has been made on how markets with end dates after Feb. 15 will be settled
PredictIt will continue to accept deposits and new signups
PredictIt will continue to honor all withdrawal requests
PredictIt maintains that all open markets are within the terms of the No-Action letter. We know our PredictIt community is incredibly strong and committed to this project. If you want to respectfully comment on this action, you can submit your comments to the CFTC here.

We will continue to update this page with additional information as it becomes available. Thank you for being a PredictIt trader!
They finally have something up on it...I have DeSantis for the GOP nomination that I got right after the 2020 election and I'm not looking forward to having to cash that out early.
