Prediction-market contracts on a Texas data-center moratorium showed odds from 1.9% for Jan. 1, 2027, to 32% for Jan. 1, 2029, while Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa’s permit proposal remains unimplemented.

The listed odds were 1.9% for Jan. 1, 2027, 17.5% for July 1, 2027, 21.5% for Jan. 1, 2028, and 32% for Jan. 1, 2029. These are contract probabilities for different dates, not confirmation that Texas will enact a moratorium.

Hinojosa campaigned on pausing approvals for new data centers. Her proposal has not taken effect. TokenPost previously covered the proposal’s potential effect on crypto-linked projects in Texas.
