LOTBA says Polymarket block followed investigation with Buenos Aires courts

Enforcement & compliance

Buenos Aires City Lottery (LOTBA) director Ezequiel Domínguez said the authority’s digital monitoring helped identify Polymarket’s unauthorised gambling activity before a court ordered the platform blocked. He said the complaint was filed on 30 January and the block was ordered on 11 March, after technical evidence was developed through the judicial process.

The case shows how LOTBA and Buenos Aires courts used monitoring and judicial evidence to block an unauthorised prediction-market platform.
