The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) received over 1,500 public comments on proposed rules related to prediction markets, indicating a continued escalation of regulatory discussions in this area. The comments revealed significant disagreements regarding the compliance boundaries, product attributes, and regulatory positioning of prediction markets, suggesting that subsequent rule-making may be a key variable in the industry's development. Platforms such as Polymarket and Kalshi expressed support for the regulatory framework, believing it would contribute to the industry's standardization; however, some participants called for stricter regulatory and enforcement measures to prevent potential risks.
