Limitless is an onchain prediction market that runs on Base, a layer two network built on Ethereum, with trades placed and settled in crypto such as USDC through a wallet you control. The deciding fact for a Hawaii resident comes from the platform itself: the Limitless Exchange terms of service, last updated 19 June 2026, state that the platform is not available for trading to users from the United States of America (per the Limitless Exchange terms of service, as of April 2026). The onchain venue is operated by Street Chow Inc., a Panamanian company, and holds no Commodity Futures Trading Commission registration and no Hawaii license. Hawaii is one of only two states with essentially no legalized gambling of any kind, no casinos, no lottery and no sports betting, so there is no state channel that an offshore crypto venue could ever fit into. There is a genuine development worth naming. A separate entity, Limitless Markets US, LLC, filed an application with the CFTC in 2026 to operate as a federally regulated United States event contract exchange (per Public Gaming Research Institute and Casino.org reporting, May 2026). That application was pending at the time of writing, so it does not change today's answer, but if it is approved a compliant United States route could open later. For now, with the onchain platform closed to United States users at the terms level, a Hawaii reader has no compliant route to Limitless.
As of April 2026, no. The onchain Limitless Exchange on Base lists the United States as not available for trading in its own terms, last updated 19 June 2026, so a Hawaii resident has no compliant route to it today. Limitless holds no CFTC registration through the onchain venue. A separate entity, Limitless Markets US, LLC, has a pending CFTC application that could open a regulated route later, but until it is approved a Hawaii reader should use a United States regulated venue for real money.
Where a position is genuinely contested we say so, and Limitless is partly that case. The onchain platform's terms clearly exclude United States users for trading, so the access answer today is settled. What is genuinely open is the future: Limitless Markets US, LLC has a pending CFTC application, and the broader legal treatment of onchain prediction markets in the United States is still developing. We will update this page if the regulated route changes the answer.
Because the onchain Limitless platform does not serve United States residents, we are not pointing you to open an account there. The venues below are United States regulated platforms a Hawaii reader can use for real money, listed so you can understand the regulated landscape rather than as a recommendation. Hawaii allows no state gambling of its own, so these federally regulated venues are the realistic route, and specific products such as sports event contracts can be contested. We show no paid placements, this list appears only after the information, and you should confirm your eligibility before you act.
Limitless onchain is not offered to United States residents, so we do not list it as an account to open here. The venues above are United States regulated platforms a reader can use for real money, and specific products can vary by state. Scores are illustrative editorial examples, not advice. Confirm the current position before acting.
As of April 2026, no. The onchain Limitless Exchange on Base lists the United States as not available for trading in its own terms, so a Hawaii resident has no compliant route today. This is general information, not legal advice.
Possibly. Limitless Markets US, LLC filed a CFTC application in 2026 to run a regulated United States exchange. It was pending at the time of writing, so it does not change the current answer, but approval could open a compliant route later.
We do not advise it. Using a VPN to bypass a platform's jurisdiction rules can breach its terms and put any funds at risk, and it does not make the activity compliant. A Hawaii reader should use a United States regulated venue instead.
United States regulated venues such as Kalshi, Polymarket, ForecastEx and Robinhood operate under federal oversight. Specific products can vary by state, so read the rules and your eligibility before you act.
The onchain Limitless Exchange does not offer trading to United States users under its own terms and holds no CFTC registration. A separate US entity has a pending CFTC application. The broader legal status of onchain prediction markets is still developing, so treat this as general information, not legal advice.
Limitless onchain is not offered to United States residents, so we are not pointing you to it. In the wider category, real money contracts can settle to zero and losses are permanent, and onchain venues add the risk of losing access to the wallet you control. Treating forecasting as easy income is a habit that travels badly. Use regulated venues and learn how prices and probabilities behave before risking money. You must be 18+ or the legal age in your region. If betting has stopped being fun, in the United States you can call or text the helpline on 1-800-GAMBLER or visit ncpgambling.org.
The position above rests on the Limitless Exchange terms of service excluding United States users for trading, on the onchain venue holding no CFTC registration, on a separate pending CFTC application by Limitless Markets US, LLC, and on Hawaii state law. Confirm it yourself before you act, because licensing and availability can change.
