Predict the Floor — Game 1: The Read
Starting Oct 22 @ 12:00 AMPredict the summit itself. Lock your picks before the doors open, then watch the day settle them. Every contest here rides on a real event with a real referee — the agenda clock, a headcount, a public data feed — so nothing comes down to a coin flip or a judgment call. Will a session blow past its slot? Will the CFTC's enforcement chief say the word "fraud" on stage? Will a ground stop at LaGuardia scramble everyone's arrival? Read the room, read the format, read the world outside the building — and let Day 1 prove you right. The warm-up game, and the one that gets 2,500 strangers comparing picks before the first keynote.
