State prediction-market source tracker
A dated guide to official state positions, source gaps and procedural records. It is not a platform availability list or a legal opinion.
Texas
Read the state’s general legal framework and the Legislature’s prediction-market study agenda without treating either as a blanket product approval.
Nevada
Nevada’s regulator has published specific enforcement announcements. Their dates, product scope and procedural posture matter.
Maryland
Separate an agency’s dated notice from the later court history and from a platform’s own access claims.
New York
Read the Attorney General’s dated allegations and requested remedies without presenting a filed lawsuit as a final judgment.
Florida
Start with Florida’s official regulator and legal texts; a general statute index does not settle a specific event-contract question.
Informational source check: 2026-11-05. No platform availability list, operator recommendation or legal opinion is supplied.
Why federal registration is not the whole question
The CFTC’s consumer page states a broad federal-jurisdiction position. State enforcement sources reviewed here take different positions on specific event-contract offerings. This tracker sets out those positions with their dates.
- CFTC: Understanding Prediction Markets and Event Contracts (undated)
- Nevada Gaming Control Board: Ninth Circuit Rules in Favor of Nevada — published 2026-08-28
- New York Attorney General: announced lawsuit against Kalshi — published 2026-07-31
Read each record for what it establishes
A statute, a hearing notice, an agency allegation, an injunction and a final judgment answer different questions. Match the exact entity, product, contract category, jurisdiction and effective date. Later orders can change the practical result.
What the tracker does not measure
This is a selected source check, not a complete docket search or a map of operator availability. Source-access dates are kept separate from publication and action dates.
