VIP-bettor inquiry widens

Sen. Richard Blumenthal is expanding his scrutiny of VIP betting beyond FanDuel to DraftKings, Kalshi and Polymarket, according to bonus.com.

The development brings prediction-market platforms into an inquiry that had focused on VIP bettors at FanDuel. The available summary does not describe the specific questions directed at the additional companies.

The update, published Oct 13, 2026, at 7:24 AM ET, identified the expanded inquiry as the latest development and reported no significant new headline in the preceding 15 minutes.

The full bonus.com article was unavailable. The supplied material does not establish a response deadline, identify company responses or describe any resulting enforcement action.

What it means for prediction markets

  • Kalshi and Polymarket are explicitly named. The scrutiny now extends beyond the previously identified FanDuel inquiry, according to bonus.com.
  • An inquiry is not an outcome. The available information does not establish a finding of wrongdoing or a change in platform rules.
  • Details remain important. The scope of any requests and subsequent official action would help readers assess the development against relevant contracts’ resolution criteria.
