On Crypto.com, a weather and climate market is a contract on a clearly defined question that settles against a written rule, the named source and date set before trading. A correct side pays one dollar and the other pays nothing, so the price between 1 and 99 cents reads as the implied probability.
Offered via CDNA, a CFTC-registered exchange and clearinghouse, solid US standing.
