**Source:** ProphetX CFTC ANPRM comments, April 2026
ProphetX's Section 4(c) proposal specifically addresses the Rule 40.11 paradox by creating explicit CFTC permission that overrides the 'shall not list' prohibition, rather than arguing around it through field preemption. This is architecturally more durable because it doesn't depend on the 'swaps are preempted' theory that is currently being litigated in multiple circuits.

ProphetX's Section 4(c) proposal is architecturally more durable than field preemption because it creates explicit CFTC permission that directly overrides Rule 40.11's 'shall not list' prohibition, rather than arguing around it through preemption doctrine. This provides a fallback path if courts reject the preemption argument.

Ninth Circuit oral arguments on April 16, 2026 showed marked skepticism from all three Trump-appointed judges (Nelson, Bade, Lee) toward Kalshi's federal preemption argument. Judge Nelson's direct questioning of CFTC Rule 40.11 ('40.11 says any regulated entity shall not list for trading gaming contracts. It prohibits it from going on. The only way to get around it is if you get permission first.') signals likely ruling for Nevada. Article published April 20 stated ruling expected 'in the coming days' rather than typical 60-120 day window, suggesting imminent circuit split confirmation with Third Circuit. Multiple states (including Arizona) have already filed to delay their own cases pending this ruling, confirming its dispositive significance.

ProphetX's Section 4(c) proposal represents a regulatory pathway that could survive a hostile SCOTUS ruling on preemption. If the Court rejects field preemption, Section 4(c) provides an alternative mechanism for federal authorization through CFTC rulemaking rather than litigation.
