Kalshi Introduces Regulated Perpetual Futures in the US Crypto Market

Kalshi, a prediction market platform, has launched the first perpetual futures contracts in the U.S., marking a significant milestone in the country's crypto trading landscape.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has given regulatory approval for Kalshi to offer perpetuals, which are a type of cryptocurrency futures contract that doesn't expire and allows investors to bet on price movements.

The introduction of perpetuals is expected to improve capital allocation and risk management for U.S. businesses, as they will be able to access a new range of trading opportunities.
