A recent ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit permits states to regulate sports betting, impacting the prediction market industry.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled on Friday that federal commodities-trading law does not override Nevada's gambling law regarding sports betting regulations. This decision marks a significant setback for the prediction-market industry.
The unanimous 3-0 ruling could influence the U.S. Supreme Court's eventual decision on the matter, especially as the Third Circuit previously ruled that New Jersey lacks the authority to regulate Kalshi, a prediction market platform.
Currently, around 20 states are engaged in legal disputes concerning the ability of prediction markets to offer sports-related contracts without conflicting with existing gambling laws.
