Deep潮 TechFlow News, January 10th, according to Theblock, a bill called the “2026 Prediction Market Public Integrity Act” has been proposed by a Democratic lawmaker in the United States, aiming to prohibit federal elected officials, political appointees, and administrative employees from betting and profiting on government policies, actions, or political outcomes using insider information in prediction markets. The bill was formally introduced by Ritchie Torres, a Democratic representative from New York, and has received support from 30 Democratic lawmakers, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

This move stems from recent controversial betting incidents related to the arrest of former Venezuelan President Maduro. Reportedly, a Polymarket account profited $400,000 by predicting Maduro would “step down” before the end of this month, raising concerns about insider trading.
