The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s legal campaign against predicting market platforms such as Polymarket and Malashi will not only be shutd down, according to Caroline Pham, the chairman of the acting agency was placed by President Donald Trump.
Pham says the agency is Assemble experts for a roundtable meetingProbably next month, which may develop a case for how the commission should approach the regulation and administration of companies that offer betting on event contracts. He noted that despite his continued opposition to recent years with former chairman Rostin Rostin Behnam’s stance against predictions – including wagers made at sports events and political results in the United States – The agency has moved too far to its path to easily reverse it.
“Unfortunately, the unpleasant delays and anti-companion policies of recent years have severely suppressed the CFTC’s ability to pivot the commonly-relevant regulation of prophecy markets,” said Pham. “The current interpretations of the commission about event contracts are a sinkhole of legal uncertainty and an inappropriate forcing the new administration.”
Roundtable setting up is a “first step required to establish a holistic regulatory framework that will both take emerging prophecy markets and protect retail customers from binary options such as Damn and abused marketing and sale skills, “Pham said.
The CFTC lost a preliminary case in court against Kashi when a US Federal Judge decided last year that the agency could not prevent the firm from list of election contracts. However, the agency pursued an appeal to a higher court, and Butili argued with a new legal dispute that Only Congress can stop betting on election.
