Wisconsin’s lawsuit against Kalshi, Robinhood, Coinbase, Polymarket and Crypto.com deepens the battle between state gambling enforcers and federal regulators over sports prediction markets. Wisconsin’s top law enforcement official has sued a group of fintech and crypto platforms, including Kalshi, Robinhood, Coinbase, Polymarket and Crypto.com, accusing them of facilitating illegal sports betting by offering “event contracts,” according to complaints filed April 23 in Dane County. Attorney General Josh Kaul is seeking preliminary and permanent injunctions to block the companies from offering sports-related markets to customers in Wisconsin and to have a court declare the operations unlawful under state gambling law and a public nuisance. The case adds to a growing clash between state gambling laws and federally regulated prediction markets, as regulators and courts across the United States debate whether event contracts are financial instruments or illegal wagers.

Cryptography company Succinct launched Zcam, an iPhone camera app that signs photos and videos at capture to help prove media authenticity in the AI era. Cryptography company Succinct has launched Zcam, an iPhone camera app that cryptographically signs photos and videos at the moment of capture to help prove their authenticity. The company said Thursday that Zcam embeds a tamper-evident record linking media to the device that captured it, allowing viewers to verify that content was not digitally altered or generated by artificial intelligence. According to Succinct, the app works by hashing raw image data and signing it using keys generated inside Apple’s Secure Enclave, a hardware-based security module. The resulting signature, along with capture metadata and attestation, is embedded into the file using the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA) standard, a framework for attaching tamper-evident provenance data to digital media.
