Aristotle Exchange is a federally regulated exchange that allows users to trade on the outcomes of real-world events — from the economy to public policy to entertainment and cultural trends — all the while lending their voices to greatest debates of the day. In September 2025, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) granted Aristotle Exchange status as a Designated Contract Market (DCM).
A prediction market is a trading venue where people buy and sell contracts linked to future outcome. The price of a contract reflects the crowd's belief in the likelihood of that outcome occurring. For example, if a contract in "Candidate A wins" costs $0.70, the market thinks there's a 70% chance they will win. These markets are real-time expressions of the collective knowledge and insights of many participants.
Designated Contract Market (DCM) is a type of exchange regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) that facilitates the trading of derivatives contracts. DCMs allow individuals and institutions to buy and sell standardized contracts for things like commodities, interest rates, or stock indexes. Examples of DCMs include well-known exchanges like the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) and Intercontinental Exchange (ICE).
Since real money is involved, US persons over the age of 18 with valid identification can open an account. Businesses and financial institutions may also apply to participate in trading on the DCM.
