The legal situation in Micronesia

Chuuk and Yap allow only charitable and public-purpose gambling, Kosrae treats wagering as a misdemeanour, and Pohnpei has no commercial casino framework. There is no crypto law, and crypto is not legal tender.
Key facts
- No federal gambling statute; gambling is regulated state by state.
- Kosrae treats minor wagering as a misdemeanour; Chuuk and Yap restrict commercial gambling.
- No dedicated crypto law; the US dollar is the currency.
- No ISP block or enforcement naming Polymarket was found.
