Thats a different phenomenon than what I was discussing, but a really interesting one. Nate Silver discussed the topic with Tyler Cowen and said many platforms ban sharps, but then look to other platforms that allow them to benchmark their own odds.

I think the analogous situation to what I was proposing would be if a platform had open betting and organic odds, but sold the sharp betting data to 3rd parties.
