Kalshi Targets Crypto, Broker Integration Plans
Kalshi plans to integrate its U.S.-regulated prediction market with major cryptocurrency exchanges and retail brokers within 12 months. The platform, which gained a 66% market share by September, is pushing event data on-chain for developers. Partnerships with Solana, Base, and Robinhood support this expansion. Regulatory wins in the U.S. have enabled growth, though state-level lawsuits continue.
