About Event Trading Hub

Who Runs Event Trading Hub

Event Trading Hub is operated by Machiawelli, the editor and researcher behind the site’s guides, reviews, tools, and platform reference pages. The site is built around a practical editorial workflow: read the rules, compare the source claims, test how the information is presented for beginners, and separate facts from interpretation.

The practical experience behind the site comes from following event-market platforms, reviewing official documentation, studying how real-world events move prices, maintaining structured platform records, and building tools such as the YES/NO Contract Calculator and Prediction Market Scanner.

This is not a licensed financial, legal, or tax advisory service. It is an editorial research resource for readers who want clearer context before they decide whether a platform, article, or market is worth further research.

What The Site Does

What The Site Does Not Do

• No financial advice. Content is educational and informational. It is not individualized investment, trading, tax, or legal advice.
• No profit guarantees. Prediction markets can be wrong, illiquid, ambiguous, restricted by location, or resolved in ways a trader did not expect.
• No pressure to risk money. The site does not tell readers to deposit funds, chase markets, use leverage, or treat event trading as a reliable income source.
• No unsupported platform promotion. A platform is not described positively because of monetization potential. If a page ever uses an affiliate, referral, sponsored, or paid-placement link, the page must say so clearly.

How Facts Are Checked

Event-market facts change quickly, so the site uses a source hierarchy instead of relying on memory, search snippets, or generic summaries.

1. Primary sources first: official platform pages, help centers, fee pages, terms, market rules, API documentation, and official announcements.
2. Regulator or legal-source context when relevant: CFTC materials, court or enforcement documents, official exchange/entity records, and other authoritative sources.
3. Supporting sources only for context: reputable reporting can help explain a timeline, but it does not verify a platform field by itself.
4. Unknown stays unknown: if a fee, limit, availability rule, or monetization status is not verified, the page should mark it as unknown, partial, or needing recheck.

Fact and interpretation are treated differently. A platform’s stated fee rule is a source claim. Whether that rule is beginner-friendly is editorial interpretation and should be framed as such.

How Pages Are Updated

Time-sensitive pages are updated during planned review cycles and when a source change, platform launch, rule update, fee change, regulatory event, or material reader-facing error is found. Structured pages and reviews should show source status, last-checked language, or update history where that context matters.

Not every page is updated daily. Stable explainers may change less often than platform reviews, database rows, or market-discovery tools. Readers should always check the live platform and official terms before making a real-money decision.

How Platforms Are Selected For Reviews

Platforms are selected because readers are likely to encounter them while researching prediction markets, event contracts, or event trading. Selection can be based on availability, regulatory structure, event categories, reader confusion, source coverage, or relevance to the site’s platform database.

Selection does not mean endorsement. A review may conclude that a platform is useful only for a narrow use case, not appropriate for beginners, restricted by region, or missing enough source clarity to make broad claims.

Editorial Policy

• Use plain language and explain jargon when a beginner would reasonably need it.
• Prefer source-backed tables, practical examples, and tools over generic SEO content.
• Avoid “best platform” framing unless the page clearly defines the use case and evidence.
• Keep claims conservative around fees, legal status, availability, profitability, and risk.
• Do not copy competitor language, ratings, structures, or affiliate claims.

Fact-Checking Policy

Before a platform fact is used in a review, comparison, or tool context, it should be checked against the strongest available source. If the strongest available source is incomplete, the limitation should be visible rather than hidden.

• Fees, limits, funding, settlement, and access rules need official-source support or an explicit uncertainty label.
• Historical examples should include enough date, event, and market context for a reader to understand what happened.
• Corrections should update the page content, not only a private note.
• Old claims should not be reused in new pages without rechecking time-sensitive details.

Disclosure

Event Trading Hub is designed as an independent education and research resource. As of this update, the core reviews and platform-reference pages do not use approved affiliate, referral, sponsored, or paid-placement links unless a specific page says otherwise.

Read the full standalone Disclosure page for current affiliate, referral, sponsored, and paid-placement link status.

If monetized links are added later, they should be based on official program terms, clearly labeled on the relevant page, and separated from editorial conclusions. Monetization should not be the reason a platform is described positively.

Corrections And Contact

If you find an outdated platform fact, broken source link, unclear disclosure, or factual error, use the Contact page and include the page URL, the claim in question, and the source that supports the correction.

Correction requests are strongest when they include official platform documentation, regulator material, or a clear primary source. If a change is accepted, the affected page should be updated directly and, when material, reflected in the page’s update notes.
