Nevada Wins Legal Battle Over Sports Betting | Boise News

Nevada just got a major legal win as the Ninth Circuit rules Kalshi’s sports bets aren’t federally classified as “swaps,” letting the state keep regulating its own betting scene. The decision counters platforms like Kalshi, Crypto.com, and Robinhood’s push for federal override, with judges finding the term “swap” doesn’t fit the practical reality. Nevada’s gaming board and governor are thrilled, seeing it as proof their regulatory approach protects integrity. But with a conflicting ruling from the Third Circuit in New Jersey, the battle’s likely headed straight to the Supreme Court. Nevada’s casinos and gaming regulators are already fighting hard to block Kalshi’s operations, showing how deeply this dispute affects the future of sports betting nationwide.
