Kansspelautoriteit considers action over Polymarket prediction bets in the Netherlands
The Kansspelautoriteit says Polymarket's prediction contracts count as online gambling and that offering them to Dutch players without a licence is not permitted. The authority is considering possible steps to enforce Dutch gambling law; the report also describes unusually timed bets on Maduro's departure and US action in Venezuela, prompting online allegations of insider trading.
Possible enforcement could affect Polymarket's availability to Dutch players and the status of its prediction contracts.
