Is Limitless available in Minnesota, amid a contested ban?

A neutral, dated read on whether a Minnesota resident can use Limitless. The onchain Limitless Exchange already lists the United States as not available for trading in its terms, last updated 19 June 2026, and Minnesota has separately enacted a law to ban prediction market sites that is now contested in federal court. Information, not advice. As of January 2026.

Why this is the answer

No access now, and a state ban being fought in court.

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 first deciding fact for a Minnesota 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 January 2026). The onchain venue is operated by Street Chow Inc., a Panamanian company, and holds no Commodity Futures Trading Commission registration and no Minnesota license. The second fact is unusual to Minnesota and genuinely contested. Minnesota enacted a law, signed by Governor Tim Walz, that bans prediction market sites from operating in the state, scheduled to take effect on 1 August 2026, and the CFTC responded by suing Minnesota and asking a federal court to block the ban before it starts (per NPR reporting, May 2026). Minnesota also has no legal sports betting framework, as repeated legislative efforts have not passed. So the answer today is no on two grounds: the onchain platform already excludes United States users, and even a future regulated route would meet a state ban whose validity is being litigated. We will update this page as the court case resolves.

Quick answer

As of January 2026, no. The onchain Limitless Exchange on Base lists the United States as not available for trading in its own terms, so a Minnesota resident has no compliant route today. Minnesota has separately enacted a law to ban prediction market sites from 1 August 2026, which the CFTC has sued to block, so the state position is contested and unsettled. A Minnesota reader has no clear compliant route to Limitless while both the platform exclusion and the litigation stand.

The detail

What a Minnesota reader is actually looking at.

Available in Minnesota

as of January 2026
Regulatory basis
Onchain market on Base, operated by Street Chow Inc. of Panama, with no CFTC registration and no Minnesota license. Access is restricted by the platform's own terms.
as of January 2026
State ban, contested
Minnesota enacted a law to ban prediction market sites from 1 August 2026. The CFTC has sued to block it, so the measure is unresolved and being litigated.
as of January 2026
Pending development
Limitless Markets US, LLC filed a CFTC application in 2026 to run a regulated United States exchange. Even if approved, the Minnesota ban question would remain open.

What this means for you
A Minnesota reader has no clear compliant route to Limitless while the platform exclusion and the litigation stand. Watch the court case before acting.
as of January 2026

Minnesota is the clearest contested case in this matrix. The onchain platform exclusion is settled, but the state prediction market ban is the subject of active federal litigation between Minnesota and the CFTC, and a court could uphold or strike it. We are not predicting an outcome. Until the case resolves, a Minnesota reader should treat the state position as unsettled and verify the current rules before participating anywhere.

Compare venues, with a caution

Regulated US venues, subject to the Minnesota case

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 listed so you can understand the landscape rather than as a recommendation. Importantly, Minnesota's prediction market ban is contested in court and could affect whether these venues can serve a Minnesota resident, so this is not a clear green light for the state. We show no paid placements, this list appears only after the information, and you should confirm your eligibility and the current legal position 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, but the Minnesota ban is contested and could change their availability in the state. Scores are illustrative editorial examples, not advice.

FAQ

Limitless in Minnesota, in short.

Is Limitless available in Minnesota?

As of January 2026, no. The onchain Limitless Exchange on Base lists the United States as not available for trading in its own terms, so a Minnesota resident has no compliant route today. Minnesota has also enacted a law to ban prediction market sites in the state, which is now contested in federal court. This is general information, not legal advice.

What is the Minnesota prediction market ban?

Minnesota enacted a law, signed by Governor Tim Walz, that bans prediction market sites from operating in the state, scheduled to take effect on 1 August 2026. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission sued Minnesota to block enforcement, so the measure is contested and unresolved as of January 2026.

Could Limitless become available in the United States later?

Possibly, but the Minnesota position is uncertain. Limitless Markets US, LLC filed a CFTC application in 2026 to run a regulated United States exchange. Even a federally regulated venue would face the unresolved Minnesota ban question, which is being litigated, so we cannot give a settled Minnesota answer.

Can I use a VPN to reach Limitless from Minnesota?

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 Minnesota reader should wait for the legal position to settle and use a compliant venue.

What can a Minnesota reader use instead?

United States regulated venues such as Kalshi, Polymarket, ForecastEx and Robinhood operate under federal oversight, but the Minnesota prediction market ban is contested and could affect access. Read the rules and your eligibility before you act.

A note on risk,

Limitless onchain is not offered to United States residents, so we are not pointing you to it, and the Minnesota legal position is unsettled on top of that. 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. Watch how the Minnesota case resolves and use a compliant venue once the position is clear. 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.

How to verify this, and where in Minnesota

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 Minnesota's enacted prediction market ban and the CFTC's suit to block it, and on Minnesota having no legal sports betting framework. Confirm it yourself before you act, because the litigation can change the position quickly.
