As long as there's a risk involved and it is some kind of prediction, win or lose type of games, then I would always consider it as a form of gambling.
Sometimes even if it's not directly money as long as it have a value and it is being risk then yes it is gambling.

Sometimes we forget that it is gambling and still think it is not gambling. We think that anything that uses money is gambling, whereas that does not use money, it is not gambling so in predicting it, we say it is not gambling. But as you said, whatever it is, if there is value to be gained from predictions, it is gambling. Well, that is the response from people only.

Actually the response to this Op case is still a hot topic of conversation because everyone has different opinions and thoughts, like now you think it's gambling because there are several risk triggers to gamble using real money.
For myself, betting for free to get real prizes from the results of this prediction can be considered open gambling as long as we consider this only a game that allows us to earn money from this guessing or prediction game.
But it will be gambling if the person is triggered by this prediction and bets using personal money to predict, then this is gambling.
So all responses return to their respective mindsets.

It's true what you say. But it's already a gamble because it's a free bet to get a real prize, even if it's just a prediction result. And many people don't realize that it is gambling because they think they are not spending any money at all to give their predictions and if they are lucky, they will get a real prize.

And that will trigger people to bet because eventually, people will want to get big prizes where there is a requirement to use real money to place bets. For this prediction game, I remember a site called futuur which also provides lots of predictions and we can use the tokens in the casino besides using other main coins.
