|
|
## Timeline
|
|
|
|
- **2026** — Obtained TRO blocking Kalshi operations in Nevada; initiated enforcement actions against Robinhood Derivatives and Crypto.com
|
|
- **2026-04-16** — Defended consolidated cases before 9th Circuit on CEA preemption vs. Nevada gaming law
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
The Nevada Gaming Control Board is the state regulatory authority responsible for enforcing Nevada gaming laws. In 2026, the Board successfully obtained a temporary restraining order against Kalshi at the district court level and initiated parallel enforcement actions against Robinhood Derivatives and Crypto.com, arguing that prediction market contracts fall under Nevada's gaming law definitions of "sports pool" and "percentage game."
|
|
|
|
## Legal Strategy
|
|
|
|
The Board's enforcement actions test whether state gaming law can regulate CFTC-licensed prediction market platforms, challenging the scope of federal Commodity Exchange Act preemption. The consolidated 9th Circuit cases represent the Board's defense of state regulatory authority over prediction markets operating within Nevada.
