## Summary
Most theoretical work on data marketplaces assumes a single round of trading and full information. That makes realistic settings, with repeated interaction and hidden buyer valuations, analytically hard to solve. The authors ask whether LLM-driven agents can still make decisions that agree with game-theoretic equilibria in such markets. They build EvoDM, an agent-based simulation of a three-layer user–platform–buyer marketplace extending the static model of Fallah et al. (2024). For simplified CI, Evolving and β-INC regimes they derive closed-form equilibria, which serve as ground truth. On top of this they design Datamart-Agent. It relies on role-conditioned prompts, a dynamic game tree memory with retrieval of similar past trajectories, and mechanism-guided reflection, and it needs no fine-tuning. Across the tractable settings, the agent comes closest to the theoretical equilibria, outperforming RL-based and LLM-based baselines. The validated agents are then used for exploratory studies of competition and privacy regulation where no exact solution exists. This shows how LLM simulations can support data-market policy analysis.

## Key points
- **EvoDM** models the market as a multi-agent Markov game over T rounds, with platforms entering and exiting. It gives analytical equilibrium benchmarks for the CI, Evolving and β-INC settings (β is the buyer's private valuation). Utilities are based on mutual information under Gaussian signals.
- **Datamart-Agent** achieves the lowest Utility Gap of all compared methods. Its Pass@ϵ is more than 20% higher than strong ABM baselines.
- In the simulations, strict data-deletion rules raise user utility, and dynamic pricing helps both buyers and platforms.
- Platform lifespan inequality was measured with the Gini coefficient under four privacy regulation regimes:

  | Regime | Gini |
  |---|---|
  | No regulation | 0.256 |
  | Privacy ban | 0.435 |
  | Uniform mandate (σ=0.5) | 0.387 |
  | Cost-tiered mandate | 0.259 |

  The cost-tiered mandate is the fairest of the three regulated options.
- In the experiments, privacy-sensitive (high-α) users concentrate their sharing on a few trusted privacy-first platforms as such platforms become more common. Low-α users show little sensitivity to market composition.
