Novig, Crypto.com Exchange Sue to Block Missouri Sports Wagering Enforcement

Novig and Crypto.com’s exchange asked federal courts to shield them from Missouri’s enforcement of sports wagering rules, arguing federal law preempts the state action. Missouri Attorney General filed the enforcement action in September against six prediction market operators. Both exchanges are CFTC-regulated.

The core issue is federal preemption: two CFTC-regulated venues are testing whether that status insulates them from state gambling enforcement, which would set a precedent for how prediction markets are classified nationwide. This matters well beyond Missouri, since other states weighing similar action against prediction market operators are effectively watching how courts treat the federal-versus-state boundary. The open question is whether the preemption argument holds, or whether state wagering regimes can reach CFTC-supervised products.
