Prediction market platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket are drawing in Gen Z users by incorporating meme culture and gamified features such as leaderboards and badges. These platforms, which require users to be at least 18 years old, offer a lower entry barrier compared to the 21-year-old legal gambling age in most U.S. states. Despite the engaging design, about 69% of users report financial losses, with only a few top users achieving profitability. Concerns have been raised about the potential dependency of young users on high-risk investing due to their cognitive development stage. In response, U.S. Senators Katie Britt and Richard Blumenthal have proposed legislation aimed at limiting minors' exposure to prediction market advertisements.
