Watch what happens to prices when the supply goes up or down. Talk to any farmer about it.

Too much latency in information flow. Too high a variance.
Worse is that one can double bet on the same underlying asset on different exchanges (like taking out multiple insurance policies on the same car with payout on one policy not necessarily invalidating other policies). This grossly distorts prices.
