The Crypto Council for Innovation and Blockchain Association have filed a motion to block the tax before it launches, citing violations of state and federal law, including due process and internet taxation principles. Governor JB Pritzker defended it as a “privilege tax” based on trading volume, not profit, but critics warn this could set a dangerous precedent nationwide. Meanwhile, Illinois is also targeting prediction markets, sparking lawsuits over contract bans that clash with federal rules. As legal battles intensify, the showdown highlights the growing tension between regulators and the evolving digital finance sector.
