Intrade Archive: Data for Posterity by Panos Ipeirotis.

From the post:

A few years back, I have done some work on prediction markets. For this line of research, we have been collecting data from Intrade, to perform our experimental analysis. Some of the data is available through the Intrade Archive, a web app that I wrote in order to familiarize myself with the Google App Engine.

In the last few weeks, through, after the effective shutdown of Intrade, I started receiving requests on getting access to the data stored in the Intrade Archive. So, after popular demand, I gathered all the data from the Intrade Archive, and also all the past data that I had about all the Intrade contracts going back to 2003, and I put them all on GitHub for everyone to access and download.

If you don’t know about Intrade, see: How Intrade Works.

Not sure why you would need the data but it is unusual enough to merit notice.
