Nevada authorities sue Coinbase over unlicensed gambling

Nevada authorities sued Coinbase on allegations of unlicensed sports gambling, Cointelegraph reported on Feb. 3. The Nevada Gaming Control Board said Coinbase offered illegal gambling through sports event contracts and asked a court for an injunction to ban operation of a Coinbase derivatives exchange and prediction markets. The action came a week after Coinbase partnered with Kalshi to open prediction markets across all 50 U.S. states.
