Sign InA US appeals court has ruled in favor of Kalshi, blocking the state of New Jersey from enforcing local gambling laws against the platform's sports prediction markets. The Third Circuit Court of Appeals determined that the federal Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) takes precedence over state-level regulations in this matter. This decision prevents state authorities from taking enforcement actions that could disrupt Kalshi's event contract operations. The legal dispute highlighted the tension between federal commodity regulations and state-governed gambling statutes. Analysts view this ruling as a significant victory for the prediction market industry, providing a legal shield against fragmented state interference. The outcome is expected to bolster the growth of regulated event-based trading across the United States.
