Thẩm phán New York từ chối yêu cầu của CFTC nhằm ngăn chặn hành động thực thi đối với Kalshi

The Huoxing Finance report states that on August 4, U.S. District Judge Jed S. Rakoff denied the Commodity Futures Trading Commission's (CFTC) application for an emergency temporary restraining order aimed at halting enforcement proceedings by New York State against the prediction platform Kalshi. The judge ruled that the CFTC failed to demonstrate a likelihood of success on the merits of its case or the risk of irreparable harm. However, this denial is without prejudice, and the CFTC may refile its motion by August 7. New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a lawsuit against Kalshi last Friday, alleging that it operated an illegal, unlicensed prediction business by offering contracts on sports, elections, and other events; New York State had already issued a cease-and-desist order to Kalshi in October 2025. The core dispute in this case centers on whether federal commodity law preempts state law—state authorities argue that event contracts fall under state-regulated predictions, while the CFTC and Kalshi contend they are derivatives under the CFTC’s exclusive jurisdiction.
