According to FT, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has launched an investigation into the prediction market platform Polymarket in recent weeks. The investigation is still ongoing, but the specific focus remains unclear. The report states that Polymarket was granted permission last year to resume limited operations in the U.S., and this investigation adds new regulatory pressure on the platform. As prediction markets grow rapidly, multiple U.S. states and consumer protection organizations are calling for stricter regulations. Over a dozen states have taken legal action against Polymarket and Kalshi, accusing them of operating illegal sports betting businesses. https://(wublock123.com)/news/cftc-investigation-into-polymarket-multi-state-consumer-lawsuits-63568
