Summary
Kalshi has sued the state of Minnesota to block a new law, effective August 1st, that bans prediction market operations. The company argues the state law violates federal jurisdiction, which the CFTC also asserts over prediction markets. This legal challenge follows a recent order from Spain to block Kalshi nationwide, indicating growing regulatory pressure on the platform. Kalshi claims the Minnesota ban would 'irreparably impair' its viability as a national derivatives exchange.
