At the Indian Gaming Associations convention, tribal leaders express concern over prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi, which they see as a threat to their lucrative gambling operations. These platforms, which allow users to bet on various events, are regulated as commodities by the CFTC. However, tribal chair David Bean argues that they are just illegal gambling in disguise. The tribes, which earn billions from gaming and use the funds for healthcare, education, and housing, have sued Kalshi and others in federal court. They are also pushing Congress to intervene, as the Trump administration backs the markets amid state lawsuits. Tribal leaders describe the convention atmosphere as urgent and tense, as they aim to protect their market share and services.
