Polymarket launched a market on whether any US state enacts a statewide data center moratorium by December 31, 2026, now priced at 74%. A qualifying moratorium would pause approvals, construction, grid connection or operation of new data centers. The market follows the viral video of a Denver data center watering its lawn during drought restrictions, signaling markets now see legislative backlash as likely.
