Kalshi is the first federally regulated prediction market exchange in the United States, operating as a CFTC-designated contract market. The platform enables users to trade event contracts on real-world outcomes across sports, politics, economics, entertainment, and other categories. Founded by MIT alumni, Kalshi has grown rapidly to capture roughly 95% of U.S. prediction-market revenue, generating about $4B in annualized revenue as of August 2026 — driven largely by sports contracts. The company is in advanced talks with Sequoia Capital and Wellington Management to raise at least $750M at a $40B valuation, nearly double its May 2026 mark, and its CEO has floated a 2027 IPO.
