A federal appeals court panel ruled that Nevada can enforce its state gambling regulations on prediction market operator Kalshi, blocking Kalshi from resuming trading on sports and election events without a state license.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a tighter market access barrier as state regulators are affirmed in controlling prediction markets like Kalshi within their borders. Seek to pre-empt licensing needs or pivot markets outside Nevada to avoid stalls.
