Will Prediction Markets Be Banned?

Category: News & Politics
Duration: 00:26:23

Description: Prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket are rapidly expanding—with over $63 billion in 2025 volume—and are increasingly likely to reach the U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) by 2026–2027. A legal battle is brewing between platforms arguing they are federally regulated "event contracts" (via CFTC) and state regulators labeling them illegal gambling.

Guest: Ryan VanGrack, VP of Legal and Global Head of Litigation at Coinbase
