Well, it's not a very difficult guess, right?
Against the state.
I think that's an unfair way to put it.
They're defending their jurisdiction.
I mean, what else would you do?
Right?
Like this is the whole point of federal versus state.
Why does the CFTC exist in the first place?
They've set up a federal agency who operates under the Commodities Exchange Act, who what is what we call a preemptive statute.
It preempts state law because they figured out that there's a number of things that act like financial markets because they have open markets where people are trading against each other, and then there's price discovery that does have speculation.
The speculation looks like gambling.
The very reason this debate exists is because there are similarities.
But there are things that are trading on financial exchange are gonna be preempted.
They're gonna be federally regulated.
Now, if states are gonna start taking on from that jurisdiction, that's a real problem because that same thing that happened in Minnesota could happen on the Nasdaq.
It could happen on futures.
It could happen on anything, really.
If I trade on an option and I'm putting some money on exchange of more money from something I don't control, I mean that fits the definition of gambling in like 30 state statutes.
If making it felony to trade on the Nasdaq or operate the Nasdaq, it's a real problem.
Because you're now having a patchwork of state by state regulation that has shown itself not to work effectively, whether it's on market integrity or customer protection, but it also prevents having a global liquidity pool on an actively traded financial market.
