Legendary billionaire hedge fund managers Paul Tudor Jones and Stan Druckenmiller were both investors in Intrade as of 2011, the Financial Times reports citing audit documents.

From the FT:

The documents also revealed that the company’s shareholders in 2011 included hedge fund managers Paul Tudor Jones and Stanley Druckenmiller, and a trust connected to Christopher Hehmeyer, the current chairman of the National Futures Association, a US regulatory body. None of the shareholders could be reached for comment yesterday.
