🚨
CRYPTO.COM SUES NEVADA GAMBLING AUTHORITY – A SHOCKING LEGAL BATTLE!
⚖️🔥
Breaking News: Crypto.com (Nadex) has just filed a lawsuit against the Nevada Gaming Control Board (NGCB) in federal court on June 3! The reason? NGCB banned Crypto.com from offering digital sports event contracts, claiming that this is state-sanctioned sports betting.
💥
Heavy debate:
✅
Crypto.com: Derivatives are regulated by the CFTC (federal), overriding Nevada gambling law.
✅
NGCB: This is sports betting, subject to state law. Warning letter dated May 20th threatens heavy fines if Crypto.com does not stop serving Nevada residents.
⚖️
Crypto.com seeks:
A permanent injunction preventing Nevada from applying gambling laws to derivatives.
Authorize federal law to preempt, nullifying NGCB's authority.
🌍
Background: Kalshi previously won a preliminary injunction against Nevada with a similar ruling, setting a precedent for Crypto.com.
📉
Major implications:
If Nevada wins: Crypto.com could be blocked in the state, causing heavy losses.
If Crypto.com wins: The door is wide open for digital derivatives platforms in the US, challenging state control.
⚠️
Attention investors: This case could shape the future of digital sports in the US. Watch closely and weigh the risks!
