A new trading site lets users bet money on disputed past events
A platform called Verifact Markets allows people to trade on facts that are in dispute.

Prediction platforms have become much more popular recently. These websites usually let people trade on what they think will happen in the future.
A new platform named Verifact Markets is taking this idea in a different direction. Instead of only looking ahead, it lets people trade on disputed facts.
The website extends standard prediction systems into areas where people disagree about facts that may have already occurred.
The available details do not explain how the platform decides who wins a trade. It is also unclear how the site verifies whether a disputed claim is true or false.
