UNICOIN sails

2/ The Smart Coin for Smart People, Unicoin can be mined on SafeBets.world through proof-of-intelligence. 

Yesterday, we issued a press release about the regulatory advantages of the SafeBets positive-sum business model, made hugely important by the new MN law:

The Minnesota statute defines a prediction market as any system that allows consumers to “place a wager on a future outcome.”

SafeBets users conversely never place a wager. No user ever deposits money, stakes capital, or risks financial loss on the platform. Under this definition, SafeBets does not meet the legal standard for a prediction market and is exempt from the law’s provisions.

On conventional prediction market platforms, prizes are funded by other users’ losses. Every dollar a winner receives was deposited by a losing participant. This zero-sum transfer of funds between users is the legal mechanism that state regulators classify as gambling.

SafeBets operates on an entirely different model. The platform monetizes the collective intelligence of its oracle community by deploying verified prediction signals to trade financial markets across cryptocurrency, commodities, equities, and currencies. Prize pools are funded by market inefficiencies captured through proprietary trading. No user funds the prize pool. No user’s loss creates another user’s win.

This positive-sum architecture means SafeBets requires no “consideration” from participants — the legal element that triggers gambling classification across virtually every US state and international jurisdiction. The result is a platform that is compliant with anti-gambling laws everywhere zero-sum platforms are not.

The Minnesota law does not stand alone. The prediction market industry is facing an accelerating wave of state-level enforcement:

Polymarket is currently banned for US users. Kalshi faces active criminal charges and cease-and-desist orders in multiple states.

And SafeBets can operate without restriction in all 50 US states and across 135 countries.

SafeBets (SafeBets.world) is the world’s first risk-free financial prediction platform. Users predict the prices of publicly traded financial assets. Accurate predictions earn prizes in Unicoin, the network token of SafeBets. Positioned as the Smart Coin for Smart People, mined through proof-of-intelligence, Unicoin is scheduled to ICO on September 28, 2026. No user ever deposits money, places a wager, or risks financial loss. The SafeBets concept is discussed here.
