Trader consensus reflects low expectations for a federal law banning sports prediction markets in 2026, with "No" implying 89.5% probability, driven by the lengthy legislative process ahead despite recent bipartisan action. On March 23, Sens. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and John Curtis (R-UT) introduced the "Prediction Markets are Gambling Act," amending the Commodity Exchange Act to prohibit CFTC-regulated platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket from offering sports event contracts or casino-style games, amid concerns over gambling circumvention. However, the bill remains at introduction stage with no committee hearings or floor votes scheduled, while CFTC's March guidance and advance notice of proposed rulemaking—comments due April 30—signal regulatory oversight rather than outright bans. State-level moves, like Massachusetts' January prohibition, have not spurred federal momentum, and industry responses including self-imposed insider trading curbs further diminish enactment prospects before year-end.

Any bill that prohibits federally regulated prediction markets from offering sports betting contracts, or otherwise places such activities under state-level gambling regulation rather than federal regulatory oversight, will qualify for a “Yes” resolution.
Qualifying legislation may include joint resolutions and must pass both the House and the Senate, and must be signed by the President, become law without signature while Congress remains in session, or become law through veto override. Presidential pocket vetoes that expire resolve to "No".
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the US federal government and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC); however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.
