I think that that's an attempt to try and prove that they're not an assassination market: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_market http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_market An assassination market or market for assassinations is a prediction market where any party can place a bet (using anonymous electronic money, and pseudonymous remailers) on the date of death of a given individual, and collect a payoff if they "guess" the date accurately... It has been argued that the feasibility of an assassination market precludes the acceptance by governments of any form of anonymous electronic money.
