Missouri Turns Federal Gambling Law on Novig as Polymarket Sues State AG
Missouri's attorney general asked a federal court to block prediction market platform Novig from accepting money from state residents, invoking a 2006 federal anti-gambling law. Polymarket US filed its own suit to stop the state's crackdown, and both filings landed on Nov. 9 in the same federal court in St. Louis. Traders should watch this because a state-level legal push against prediction markets could set precedent for how these platforms operate in the US.
