  ## Gameplay
  
  Tradesports.com offered Fantasy Sports predicting with real money entry fees and real cash prizes. Tradesports was a prediction market asking players to make YES or NO predictions about the outcomes of things that happen during sporting events, where the best predictors won. Different from traditional fantasy sports, Tradesports contests were based upon the teams and players fans know about. There were no drafts or rosters.
  
  Tradesports.com users were able to participate and play for as little as $2 or up to $1,000, and each contest had pre-determined cash prizes.
  
  Free-to-play contests were also available.
  
  ## Media Coverage
  
  Tradesports was featured in a wide range of publications including Business Insider, The New York Times and Forbes.
