-extraction_notes: "Single high-quality legal analysis source. One new claim about CFTC rulemaking as resolution mechanism for state-federal jurisdiction crisis. Four enrichments connecting regulatory framework to existing futarchy governance claims. Created CFTC entity, updated NASAA entity with state opposition timeline. Confidence rated experimental (single source, regulatory outcome uncertain despite strong signal). Critical for futarchy regulatory viability—rulemaking scope determines whether governance markets get federal clarity or remain in jurisdictional limbo."
+extraction_notes: "Single source (Sidley Austin legal analysis) provides regulatory context but not empirical evidence of outcomes, justifying experimental confidence. The critical uncertainty—whether CFTC rulemaking will explicitly cover governance prediction markets—remains unresolved in the source. Created new CFTC entity as it's a major regulatory actor not previously in the entity index. Enriched existing Polymarket and futarchy-fundraising claims with regulatory timeline and jurisdictional implications."
