Deep Tide TechFlow message: On May 04, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) received more than 1,500 public feedback submissions on a proposed set of rules related to the prediction market, showing that regulatory discussions in this area continue to heat up. Platforms such as Polymarket and Kalshi have expressed support for the regulatory framework, saying it would help foster the industry’s standardized development; however, some participants have also called for stricter regulation and enforcement measures to prevent potential risks.

Market analysis believes that this round of comments solicitation reflects substantial disagreement within the prediction market regarding compliance boundaries, product characteristics, and regulatory positioning, and that subsequent rulemaking may become a key variable for the industry’s development.
