Kalshi is a trading platform that allows users to speculate on the outcomes of various future events through a unique financial product called 'event contracts.' These contracts enable traders to take positions on whether specific events will happen, such as changes in Covid-19 statistics or legislative decisions in Congress. Kalshi has received regulatory approval from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), making it the first federally regulated exchange of its kind in the United States. This approval allows Kalshi to offer a new asset class that expands the traditional futures market to include a wider range of economic risks. The platform caters to both individual investors and institutional traders, providing them with opportunities to hedge against or speculate on events that could impact the economy. Kalshi earns revenue by charging transaction fees on trades made on its platform, distinguishing itself from competitors by focusing specifically on event-driven trading.
