White House says prediction-market firms will not attend Trump event
A White House spokesperson said prediction-market companies would not attend President Donald Trump’s technology-sector event, contradicting reports that executives from Polymarket and Kalshi might take part. The event was described as a meeting with technology leaders; prediction markets were due to feature at the CFTC Innovation Advisory Committee meeting in Washington.
The clarification distinguishes the White House event from the CFTC committee’s planned prediction-market discussion.
