Spain orders blocking of Polymarket and Kalshi websites
Spain's Directorate General for the Regulation of Gambling (DGOJ) ordered Polymarket and Kalshi websites blocked as a precaution while administrative sanction proceedings continue over alleged unlicensed gambling activity. The proceedings were notified through the official state gazette after direct notices to the operators abroad failed; a final decision is expected in three to four months.
The interim blocks prevent access to both platforms in Spain while the regulator assesses their licensing status.
