French regulators have implemented a block on the online prediction market Polymarket. The decision follows reports that users within the country have continued to place bets on the platform, notwithstanding a prohibition that was already in effect. According to The Local, the government took this action on Friday to enforce current gambling restrictions.
The move represents a significant step by authorities to restrict access to the site for those within France. The announcement confirms that the platform is now being targeted as part of efforts to stop illegal wagering activities that persist despite established legal measures.
