Connecticut can’t take action against Kalshi for now, judge rules

Özet

A US judge has temporarily blocked Connecticut from taking enforcement action against prediction markets platform Kalshi, which received a cease and desist order from the state’s Department of Consumer Protection (DCP) for allegedly conducting unlicensed sports gambling. Kalshi sued the DCP, arguing its event contracts are legal under federal law and fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. The court has paused enforcement while it reviews Kalshi’s motion for a preliminary injunction, with further legal proceedings scheduled through February. Kalshi, a CFTC-regulated platform that saw record trading volume in November, is also engaged in similar legal battles with multiple states, including New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Nevada, Maryland, and Ohio, over regulatory jurisdiction and gambling licensing.

A US judge has granted prediction markets platform Kalshi a temporary reprieve from enforcement after the state of Connecticut sent it a cease and desist order last week for allegedly conducting unlicensed gambling.

The Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection (DCP) sent Kalshi, along with Robinhood and Crypto.com, cease and desist orders on Dec. 2, accusing them of “conducting unlicensed online gambling, more specifically sports wagering, in Connecticut through its online sports event contracts.”

Kalshi sued the DCP a day later, arguing its event contracts “are lawful under federal law” and its platform was subject to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s “exclusive jurisdiction,” and filed a motion on Friday to temporarily stop the DCP’s action.

Connecticut federal court judge Vernon Oliver said in an order on Monday that the DCP must “refrain from taking enforcement action against Kalshi” as the court considers the company’s bid to temporarily stop the regulator.

The order adds that the DCP should file a response to the company by Jan. 9 and Kalshi should file further support for its motion by Jan. 30, with oral arguments for the case to be held in mid-February.

Kalshi is in a battle with multiple US states

Kalshi is a federally regulated designated contract maker under the CFTC and, in January, began offering contracts nationally that allow bets on the outcome of events such as sports and politics.

Its platform has become hugely popular this year and saw a record $4.54 billion monthly trading volume in November, attracting billions in investments, with Kalshi closing a $1 billion funding round earlier this month at a valuation of $11 billion.

However, multiple US state regulators have taken issue with Kalshi’s offerings, which have led to the company being embroiled in lawsuits over whether it is subject to state-level gambling laws.

Kalshi sued the New York State Gaming Commission in October after the regulator sent a cease and desist order claiming it offered a platform for sports wagering without a license.

In September, Massachusetts’ state attorney general sued Kalshi in state court, which the company asked to be tossed. So far this year, Kalshi has sued state regulators in New Jersey, Nevada, Maryland and Ohio, accusing each of regulatory overreach.

2026 New Policy Interpretation: The "Mutual Pursuit" of Intelligent Agents and AI Terminals, and the Three Major Value Reconstructions in the AIoT Industry

In May 2026, China's national ministries released two pivotal policy documents that jointly establish a strategic "dual-track" framework for the AIoT industry. The "Intelligent Agent Standardized Application and Innovation Development Implementation Opinions" defines the "soul"—positioning intelligent agents as core AI products. The "Artificial Intelligence Terminal Intelligence Grading" national standard defines the "body"—establishing a four-tier capability ladder (L1 to L4) for AI hardware. This synchronized policy approach is globally unique, moving beyond market-led (US) or risk-focused (EU) models. It frames AIoT as a new type of "intelligent infrastructure," comparable to electricity or the internet in historical significance. The core analysis identifies a value evolution from IoT 1.0 (connection) to AIoT 4.0 (collaboration, represented by the forward-looking L4 level). This "L4" signifies a paradigm shift: from users operating tools to delegating tasks to agent-like devices ("Intelligent Action of All Things"). The article outlines three strategic paths for companies: becoming Standard Definers, Scenario Integrators (focusing on 19 specified application areas), or Infrastructure Builders. A critical 18-24 month window is identified for strategic positioning. A "Four Levers" strategy is proposed: leveraging Standards (L-level certification), leveraging Scenarios (deep vertical focus), leveraging Open Source (for cost reduction and ecosystem influence), and leveraging Momentum (engaging in global protocol ecosystems). In conclusion, these policies are a starting gun for a decade-long industrial transformation, shifting the industry narrative from "Intelligent Connection of All Things" to "Intelligent Action of All Things," with companies needing to choose their赛道and execution strategy decisively.

Splashing Out 27 Billion Yuan, OpenAI Establishes New Company to Accelerate AI Deployment

On May 11th, OpenAI announced the formation of a new company, "OpenAI Deployment Company," with an initial investment of over $4 billion (approximately 27.2 billion RMB). This venture aims to help businesses build and deploy AI solutions. OpenAI is also acquiring the AI consulting firm Toromo to rapidly scale the deployment company's capabilities. This new entity, majority-owned by OpenAI, brings together 19 investment, consulting, and system integration partners, led by TPG with co-lead founding partners including Advent International, Bain Capital, and Brookfield. OpenAI's Chief Revenue Officer, Denise Dresser, stated that while AI is becoming increasingly capable, the current challenge lies in integrating these systems into core business infrastructure and workflows. The deployment company is designed to bridge this gap and translate AI capabilities into operational impact. This move comes as OpenAI emphasizes the next competitive phase will depend on the efficiency of deploying AI in real business scenarios. The company reports over 1 million businesses already use its products and APIs. OpenAI is significantly increasing its investments in computing power, with co-founder Greg Brockman stating the company expects to spend $50 billion on compute this year, a dramatic increase from $3 million in 2017. The announcement follows OpenAI's recent completion of a record $122 billion funding round in late March, led by Amazon, Nvidia, and SoftBank, valuing the company at $852 billion post-money. Major strategic investors committed $110 billion as a base for this round. Concurrently, OpenAI is advancing its core model development. It has shifted focus from its Sora video generator to developing advanced robotics and AI models that interact with the physical world. It has also begun allowing select users access to a new model specialized in identifying software vulnerabilities and is reportedly preparing to launch an enhanced image generation model in the coming weeks. According to reports citing founder Sam Altman, OpenAI is considering an IPO as early as 2027, with a potential valuation around $1 trillion.

Arthur Hayes' Latest In-Depth Article: Forget Wars and Inflation, the AI Bubble Is the Biggest Opportunity

In his latest article "The Butterfly Touch," Arthur Hayes argues that the massive capital expenditure (CAPEX) fueling the global AI race, driven by US-China technological competition and nationalism, is creating unprecedented dollar and renminbi liquidity. This monetary expansion, combined with inflationary pressures from geopolitical conflicts like the US-Iran war, is creating a perfect environment for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Hayes believes foreign nations, threatened by supply chain disruptions, will increasingly shift savings from dollar assets to real infrastructure and commodities, forcing the US to maintain loose financial conditions to support its markets. He predicts Bitcoin, backed by "trillions of dollars and yuan that have yet to be printed," is poised for a significant rally, potentially back to $126,000, with the bullish trend accelerating past $90,000. While acknowledging a potential shift in US political sentiment against AI and inflation around the 2028 election, Hayes remains aggressively bullish for now. He advocates investing in cryptocurrencies, specifically mentioning his allocations to Hyperliquid ($HYPE), Zcash ($ZEC), and an upcoming focus on $NEAR due to its "privacy narrative" and potential for a major rally.

Hackers Targeting Your Crypto Just Got An AI Upgrade — Google’s Report Is A Wake-Up Call

Google's Threat Intelligence Group warns that AI is now being weaponized by hackers at an industrial scale, posing a direct threat to cryptocurrency users. The report details a major escalation: threat actors, including state-linked groups, are using AI to develop zero-day exploits and polymorphic malware that evades detection. A key threat is PROMPTSPY, AI-enabled malware capable of autonomous, real-time attacks that can bypass standard two-factor authentication (2FA) by observing and manipulating live authentication sessions. The findings indicate that conventional security measures like 2FA are becoming insufficient against these AI-driven tools. The report recommends advanced protections like hardware security keys and multi-signature wallets as essential for crypto users facing this new threat landscape.
