- Mar 27, 2026: California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed Executive Order N-4-26 banning state appointees from betting on prediction markets (e.g., Polymarket, Kalshi) using non-public information to curb insider trading. - The order, prompted by bets tied to Iran strike speculation, raises regulatory scrutiny of crypto prediction markets and market integrity; California also fined crypto firms Nexo and Coinhub as part of broader enforcement, signaling a regulatory headwind for crypto, prediction markets, CEX/DeFi adoption and security oversight.
