Prediction market operator Kalshi hits back at Nevada regulator over geofencing fine. Aug 15 (Reuters) - Prediction market operator Kalshi accused Nevada's gaming regulator of violating federal law in a statement on Saturday after it sought daily penalties of $120,000 a day over the firm's alleged failure to comply with a geofencing order. - Board investigators successfully placed nine trades on Kalshi's mobile application while connected to cellular networks in Nevada, a day after a court-ordered deadline for the company to have a complete geofencing solution in place, according to a court filing seen by Reuters. - Kalshi in a statement said it hired GeoComply, a vendor licensed by Nevada's gaming regulator at the state's request, and that it kept the state updated throughout. - Nevada investigators misrepresented their residences to Kalshi, violating federal law, and at least one circumvented the company's own blocking measures, Kalshi's lawyers said. - A judge in the western U.S. state of Nevada in April issued a preliminary injunction barring Kalshi from offering such contracts in the state without obtaining a gaming license. - The Nevada courts did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Saturday outside normal business hours.
