Kalshi has demanded Netflix remove the trailer for 'Instadocs: The Prediction Games,' claiming it creates a misleading impression that the company violated sports betting bans.

## Trailer Content

The Netflix trailer shows Kalshi users at an event in Las Vegas showcasing their earnings from sports predictions. Kalshi alleges that a phone screen shown in the trailer is fabricated.

Kalshi stated that the screenshot shown in the trailer dates back to 2025, before Nevada's bans were in effect. The company argues that Netflix created a misleading narrative.

## Netflix's Response

Netflix confirmed that the content in the trailer is genuine and no fabrication was involved. The company emphasized that the transaction shown occurred in 2025, prior to any bans.

## Regulations and Issues

Kalshi has faced regulatory challenges in multiple states recently. Washington and Wisconsin have filed lawsuits against the company for allegedly violating sports betting laws.
