Summary
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has issued a no-action letter, easing up on swap reporting rules for fully collateralized event contracts in prediction markets. This move comes as prediction markets face regulatory battles, with the CFTC filing an amicus brief in support of Kalshi against Ohio, which shut down their sports contracts. The CFTC is also suing five states to assert its authority. Despite compliance becoming lighter, prediction markets like Kalshi continue to push boundaries, betting on federal oversight to prevail over state pushback.
