Gary Gensler submitted a court opinion stating that the CFTC has no authority to regulate sports prediction markets
Former CFTC and SEC Chairman Gary Gensler submitted an amicus brief to the appellate court, arguing that federal law does not grant his former agency, the CFTC, the authority to regulate sports-related prediction markets.
Several other entities have submitted similar amicus briefs, stating that sports-related prediction markets violate state and tribal regulatory provisions. Courts in various parts of the United States are currently deliberating whether sports-related prediction markets should be regulated at the state or federal level, with related rulings involving tax collection and other regulatory matters.
