# 800+ ANPRM comment submissions from both industry and state gaming opponents signal that the CFTC's post-April 30 rulemaking process will face intense political pressure from both sides

**Source:** Norton Rose Fulbright ANPRM analysis (April 2026)
Norton Rose analysis provides detailed comment composition breakdown: 800+ total submissions as of April 19, 2026, with only 19 filed before April 2. Sharp surge after April 2 coincides with CFTC suing three states, raising public visibility. Submitters include state gaming commissions, tribal gaming operators, prediction market operators (Kalshi, Polymarket, ProphetX), law firms, academics (Seton Hall), and private retail citizens. Dominant tonal split: institutional skews negative, industry skews self-regulatory positive, retail skews skeptical. This retail citizen participation (predominantly skeptical) represents a new dynamic beyond the institutional/industry battle.

This retail citizen engagement (predominantly skeptical) represents a new dynamic where the ANPRM comment record isn't just a battle between states and industry but is generating genuine public engagement from people who see prediction markets as gambling.

**Source:** Norton Rose Fulbright ANPRM analysis, April 2026
Norton Rose analysis indicates the ANPRM asks 'whether asymmetric information trading should be permitted across different event categories' and that the proposed rule will likely include 'Insider trading standards sharpened — explicit affirmative disclosure obligations closing Regulation 180.1 gap.' The ANPRM structure includes a dedicated section on 'Inside information' as one of six core topics with separately numbered questions. This confirms the regulatory gap exists and is being actively addressed, but the framework being developed applies to event contracts generally without distinguishing governance markets where insider knowledge is governance participation.

Norton Rose analysis indicates the proposed rule will likely include 'insider trading standards sharpened — explicit affirmative disclosure obligations closing Regulation 180.1 gap.' This confirms the regulatory gap exists and is being actively addressed in the rulemaking process. The analysis notes this alongside other likely rule components including federal preemption framework codification and economic purpose test revival.

**Source:** Norton Rose Fulbright ANPRM analysis (April 2026)
Norton Rose Fulbright analysis confirms Selig's April 17 House Agriculture Committee testimony where he stated 'CFTC will no longer sit idly by while overzealous state governments undermine the agency's exclusive jurisdiction' and warned unregulated prediction markets could be 'the next FTX.' Analysis notes Selig is 'sole sitting CFTC commissioner' with 'prior Kalshi board membership' and that 'regulatory favorability is administration-contingent, not institutionally durable.' Timeline confirms no proposed rule before mid-2026, with NPRM likely late 2026 or early 2027, and final rule 2027-2028—meaning all major regulatory decisions flow through one person for 1-2 years.

Norton Rose analysis documents Selig's April 17, 2026 House Agriculture Committee testimony where he stated 'CFTC will no longer sit idly by while overzealous state governments undermine the agency's exclusive jurisdiction' and warned unregulated prediction markets could be 'the next FTX.' Analysis notes Selig is 'sole sitting CFTC commissioner' with 'prior Kalshi board membership' and that he 'hired David Miller (former CIA/SDNY) as Enforcement Director specifically for prediction markets.' The ANPRM timeline (no proposed rule before mid-2026, final rule 2027-2028) means all major prediction market regulatory decisions through 2028 flow through one person.

**Source:** Norton Rose Fulbright ANPRM analysis, April 2026
State gaming commissions submitted ANPRM comments citing that during NFL season, approximately 90% of Kalshi contracts involved sports, making the 'derivatives not gambling' distinction hard to maintain. American Gaming Association data shows $600M+ in state tax revenue losses attributed to prediction market sports betting. Arizona filed first-ever criminal charges against prediction market operators on March 17, 2026. Eleven states have active enforcement actions. The ANPRM comment surge after April 2 (from 19 to 800+ submissions) coincided with CFTC suing three states, raising public visibility of sports betting controversy.

State gaming commissions' ANPRM submissions cite that 'during NFL season, ~90% of Kalshi contracts involved sports — makes derivatives not gambling distinction hard to maintain.' This provides specific quantitative evidence that prediction market volume is dominated by sports betting, supporting the claim that the boom is primarily gambling-driven rather than information-aggregation-driven.

Norton Rose analysis documents that after April 2, 2026, there was a sharp surge in retail citizen comments (predominantly skeptical) following CFTC suing three states. The comment record shows 'institutional skews negative; industry skews self-regulatory positive; retail skews skeptical.' This confirms the asymmetric mobilization pattern where anti-gambling sentiment generates public engagement while governance market proponents remain absent from the comment record.

Norton Rose documents that after April 2, 2026, retail citizen comments surged (from 19 total to 800+ by April 19), with retail comments predominantly skeptical. The analysis characterizes the tonal split as 'institutional skews negative; industry skews self-regulatory positive; retail skews skeptical.' This confirms retail mobilization is creating asymmetric input, with the ANPRM generating 'genuine public engagement from people who see prediction markets as gambling' while governance market proponents remain absent from the comment record.
