Federal appeals court panel gives Nevada a win in its fight to regulate prediction market Kalshi

The 3-0 ruling says federal law likely does not block state gaming rules, deepening a split with the Third Circuit.

  • The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that federal commodities trading law likely does not override Nevada's gambling regulations in governing Kalshi's sports event contracts.
  • Nevada's Attorney General called the decision a major win, affirming that sports betting remains regulated under state gambling laws despite Kalshi labeling its offerings as 'event contracts'.
  • The court sent the matter of Kalshi's election contract trading back to a lower court for further consideration of Nevada's challenges, while trading remains blocked in Nevada.
  • Kalshi plans to seek further review of the decision.
