Prediction market platform Kalshi reports $5.5 billion in perpetual futures trading volume since launch, with $1 billion daily peaks.
Kalshi’s perpetual futures products reached $5.5 billion in trading volume within two weeks of their debut. The platform, which currently offers 11 crypto-linked contracts, attributed the surge to high activity during the FIFA World Cup and NBA Finals.
Daily trading volume exceeded $1 billion for three consecutive days, marking a rapid adoption phase. Kalshi is in discussions with regulators to expand its product lineup beyond cryptocurrencies into other asset classes.
The platform’s growth reflects rising demand for prediction-based derivatives, though no immediate market reaction was reported.
