Polymarket: 25% chance a US state enacts a data center moratorium this year
Polymarket · x · 2026-11-11
Polymarket's prediction market currently prices a 25% chance any US state enacts a data center moratorium this year, 34% by end-2026, and 90% by end-2027.
Context: Forbes reports struggling US marijuana growers are converting cannabis farms into AI data centers as weed prices fall. Market rules define qualifying moratoria narrowly—state-level legislation pausing data center approvals, construction, or grid connection; tax incentive removals don't count.
