CME CEO Questions CFTC's Authority Over Prediction Markets, Says Dispute May Reach Supreme Court

Odaily News: CME Group CEO Terrence Duffy stated that the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission's (CFTC) attempt to expand its regulatory authority over prediction markets is "a bit of a stretch," and that the related regulatory dispute could ultimately reach the U.S. Supreme Court.

Speaking at the DC Fintech Week event on Tuesday, Duffy said the battle over prediction market regulation could evolve into a legal showdown among state governments, tribal governments, and the federal government. "This is going to the Supreme Court, and I think the states and the tribes will prevail," he said. (The Block)
