Kalshi’s violence restrictions remain as CFTC review proposal awaits final action
Best Predictions' November rundown says CFTC Regulation 40.11 bars registered exchanges from listing contracts involving terrorism, assassination, war, gaming or unlawful activity, and Kalshi's own policy bans violent markets including war and kidnapping. The CFTC proposed case-by-case review in June 2026 and comments closed in July, but no final rule had been published as of November 5, 2026, so the ban stands on regulated US exchanges.
