The CFTC is considering its first regulation for prediction markets, as arrests over \u201cinsider trading\u201d on everything from military operations<\/a> to Google Search data<\/a> continue to stack up. As CoinDesk<\/em><\/a> reports, a notice of proposed rulemaking<\/a> says \u201cthe proposal would establish a structured framework for evaluating whether such contracts involve an activity enumerated in Section 5c(c)(5)(C) of the Commodity Exchange Act \u2014activity that involves terrorism, assassination, war, gaming, or conduct that is unlawful under federal or state law\u2014and, if so, whether that contract is contrary to the public interest.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Separately, Kalshi announced on Wednesday that it\u2019s introducing new market integrity measures<\/a> following the release of an \u201cindependent\u201d audit committee report it commissioned a few months ago.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The changes, which it says will be effective immediately, include a system for scoring a market\u2019s risk of manipulation or insider trading, new whistleblower reporting tools, and employment verification for certain markets:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cFor markets with heightened insider or manipulation risk, we now collect employment information before traders can participate. This lets us identify presumptive insiders \u2013 people who have material, non-public information about a market\u2019s outcome \u2013 and screen them out before a trade is ever placed.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n
