Connecticut Halts Robinhood, Kalshi & Crypto.com Event Betting

Published by

Connecticut’s Department of Consumer Protection has ordered Kalshi, Robinhood and Crypto.com to stop offering sports event contracts, saying they are running unlicensed online gambling in the state. The firms must immediately halt advertising and providing these products to Connecticut users and allow residents to withdraw funds. Regulators argue the contracts are really sports bets, while Robinhood and Kalshi insist their markets are federally regulated derivatives overseen by the CFTC.
