The CFTC's draft regulations for forecasting markets have drawn differing opinions: Polymarket and Kalshi support stricter regulations, while some other organizations are calling for more stringent oversight.

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) received over 1,500 public comments on proposed rules related to prediction markets, indicating a continued escalation of regulatory discussions in this area. The comments revealed significant disagreements regarding the compliance boundaries, product attributes, and regulatory positioning of prediction markets, suggesting that subsequent rule-making may be a key variable in the industry's development. Platforms such as Polymarket and Kalshi expressed support for the regulatory framework, believing it would contribute to the industry's standardization; however, some participants called for stricter regulatory and enforcement measures to prevent potential risks.
