The legal situation in Guinea
Guinea is not on Polymarket's geoblock list, and no Guinean authority has acted against Polymarket or prediction markets. Legal betting is run by the state lottery LONAGUI, which launched its own online gaming platform in 2022 and sells lottery, PMU horse-racing and sports bets. The BCRG has issued no formal crypto rules, so crypto is legal but unregulated.
