Polymarket Tightens Access Restrictions in France Amid Regulatory Inquiries

Polymarket 在监管调查中收紧法国准入限制

Prediction marketplace Polymarket has expanded its access restrictions to include users in France following reports of an investigation into its compliance with local gambling regulations.

预测市场 Polymarket 已扩大其访问限制，将法国用户纳入其中，此前有报道称，对其遵守当地赌博法规的情况进行了调查。

Access Limitations

访问限制

While Polymarket has yet to issue an official statement, a message now displays for users accessing the platform from France, indicating that it is in "view-only mode." This means that French users can view information but are unable to engage in any trading activities.

虽然 Polymarket 尚未发表官方声明，但现在会向从法国访问该平台的用户显示一条消息，表明该平台处于“仅供查看模式”。这意味着法国用户可以查看信息，但无法进行任何交易活动。

Regulatory Considerations

监管考虑

The new restrictions stem from allegations that the National Gaming Authority (ANJ), responsible for regulating online gambling in France, is investigating Polymarket's compliance with French law. This scrutiny reportedly emerged following the significant winnings (approximately $80 million) earned by a French citizen known as "Théo" ("Fredi9999") after betting on Donald Trump's presidential victory.

新的限制源于负责监管法国在线赌博的国家博彩管理局 (ANJ) 正在调查 Polymarket 遵守法国法律的情况。据报道，这一审查是在一位名叫“Théo”（“Fredi9999”）的法国公民押注唐纳德·特朗普当选总统后赢得巨额奖金（约 8000 万美元）之后出现的。

According to an ANJ official quoted in a recent interview with The Block, the organization is examining Polymarket to ensure its adherence to French gambling regulations. This follows heightened attention to Théo's betting activities and a surge in platform engagement during the US election.

据 The Block 最近接受采访时援引 ANJ 官员的话称，该组织正在审查 Polymarket，以确保其遵守法国赌博法规。此前，美国大选期间，Théo 的博彩活动受到了高度关注，平台参与度也随之激增。

Pending Resolution

待决决议

While the ANJ has not formally communicated any policy changes affecting French users, Polymarket has proactively restricted access to its platform in France. A company spokesperson stated that "Users in France can continue to access Polymarket for critical information, but new trades have been paused while we engage with stakeholders in the country."

虽然 ANJ 尚未正式传达任何影响法国用户的政策变化，但 Polymarket 已主动限制对其法国平台的访问。公司发言人表示，“法国用户可以继续访问 Polymarket 获取重要信息，但在我们与该国利益相关者接触期间，新交易已暂停。”
