Kalshi and co-founders charged with felonies under Utah gambling law

Original: Kalshi and its co-founders face felony charges for violating Utah gambling laws

Prediction market platform Kalshi and its co-founders are facing felony charges in Utah for allegedly violating the state's gambling laws. The case has escalated into a broader legal fight, with reports that the Trump administration is suing Utah to challenge the state's total ban and protect Kalshi's operations, raising questions about how prediction markets are regulated across the US.

Why now: The clash between a federal-friendly stance on prediction markets and a state criminal prosecution has turned Kalshi into a test case for US gambling regulation.
