Kalshi Brings Regulated Perpetuals to Zcash Trading

Kalshi has launched its first US-regulated perpetuals for trading ZEC. This marks the first time a US-regulated platform has offered leveraged trading products for Zcash, a privacy-focused cryptocurrency.

The launch on June 30 adds ZEC to Kalshi's growing roster of digital assets available through its CFTC-approved perpetuals platform. The ZEC perpetual contracts come with a maximum leverage of 2.2x and contract sizing is set at 1/100th of a ZEC.

The launch was part of an expansion that also added NEAR to the platform's offerings, bringing the total digital asset lineup to 13. This expansion followed Kalshi's CFTC approval on May 29 for its initial crypto perpetual futures starting with BTCPERP.
