π US Regulator Files Emergency Motion To Block Election Betting Contracts
#CFTC #Kalshi #ElectionBetting #PredictionMarket #EmergencyMotion #USRegulator #LegalBattle #GamingLaw #PublicInterest #JudicialOpinion
According to Cointelegraph, the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has urgently filed an emergency motion to prevent Kalshi, a US prediction market, from offering election betting contracts. This action follows a judge's decision to overturn a previous order that halted Kalshiβs election markets.
In a court filing dated September 6, the CFTC requested an βemergency stayβ of the courtβs decision that overturned its order prohibiting Kalshi from listing its election contracts for trading. The regulator argued that without the courtβs detailed reasoning, it cannot make an informed decision on whether to appeal or fully brief a motion for a stay pending any forthcoming appeal.
The CFTC emphasized the urgency of the matter, stating that Kalshi is expected to immediately list the relevant election contracts and begin trading as soon as they are listed. The regulator supported its request by noting that Kalshi had already announced on its homepage that βElection Markets are Coming to Kalshi!β
The filing coincides with Judge Jia Cobb of the US District Court for the District of Columbia ruling in favor of Kalshi, allowing the platform to offer products that enable people to bet on the outcome of the US election on November 4. Following the ruling, Kalshi published an announcement on its website.
Jake Chervinsky, chief legal officer at Variant Fund, commented on the ruling in a September 7 post, describing it as a βHUGE winβ for Kalshi. However, he also expressed a desire to see the judicial opinion before making further comments. Chervinsky suggested that the best way to address regulatory overreach is to file more lawsuits.
The CFTC initially submitted the order in September 2023, arguing that the contracts involve gaming and activities that are unlawful under state law and contrary to the public interest.#CFTC #Kalshi #ElectionBetting #PredictionMarket #EmergencyMotion #USRegulator #LegalBattle #GamingLaw #PublicInterest #JudicialOpinion

π Former Mt.Gox CEO Highlights Centralized Risks and Scam Projects in Blockchain Industry
#MtGox #Blockchain #CentralizedRisks #ScamProjects #HDwallets #KoreaBlockchainWeek #MarkKarpeles
According to Odaily, former Mt.Gox CEO Mark Karpeles expressed concerns about the excessive centralized risks and the prevalence of scam projects in the blockchain industry during an interview at Korea Blockchain Week. Karpeles emphasized that many projects in the industry are either scams or fail to introduce any significant new content. He stated, 'There are too many such projects, and I have to use the word 'bad' in a very broad sense because they are either scam projects or projects that do not bring any particularly outstanding new content.'
Karpeles also advocated for Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallet technology, suggesting that if HD technology had been available during the Mt.Gox era, the infamous incident might have been avoided. HD wallets are designed to securely manage and generate multiple pairs of public and private keys from a single master seed.#MtGox #Blockchain #CentralizedRisks #ScamProjects #HDwallets #KoreaBlockchainWeek #MarkKarpeles

According to Odaily, JUP Catdets announced on platform X that the alpha trial for the PPP Token List selection process has commenced on Jupiter's Discord.

To be considered, these token communities must already be part of the existing Jupiter Community List, formerly known as the token Strictlist. The selection process within the Catdet community is consensus-based and is currently in the alpha testing phase.
During the initial alpha phase, eight communities were nominated by Catdets, with @ChurchOfTheSCF and @M0CKJUP being the first to accept the invitation. Over the next week, Catdets will vote on eligible projects and award the first PPP token label. The plan is to open the entire public testing process, including public applications, in the coming weeks. Token communities with the PPP label will have more opportunities to participate in discussions around PPP and feature in more community podcasts and shows.#Jupiter #PPPToken #TokenSelection #Catdets #AlphaTrial #CommunityVoting #TokenCommunities #Crypto #Blockchain #PublicTesting
