美国参议院禁止议员参与预测市场交易

The U.S. Senate unanimously passed a resolution (S. Res. 708) prohibiting senators from participating in prediction market trading, effective immediately. The proposal, introduced by Bernie Moreno, aims to curb speculative trading using non-public information.

Several recent incidents have drawn regulatory attention, including individuals profiting from prediction markets using confidential information. Meanwhile, platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket are also strengthening internal controls to prevent insider trading.

At the state level, New York and Illinois have also implemented similar measures restricting public officials from using non-public information to participate in prediction markets.
