About Kalshi
Kalshi is the first CFTC regulated exchange dedicated to trading on the outcome of future events. Founded in 2018 by Tarek Mansour and Luana Lopes Lara, Kalshi operates a regulated exchange where participants can trade on the outcomes of real-world events. These "Event Contracts" allow users to buy and sell contracts based on whether specific events will occur in the future, effectively letting them speculate or hedge against those outcomes.
Kalshi’s mission is to redefine the way traders approach economic predictions by allowing them to invest directly in their beliefs about the outcome of events that impact the economy. The platform has gained attention for its innovative approach to trading and is backed by notable investors such as Sequoia Capital and Y Combinator. Through its offerings, Kalshi aims to bring a new level of transparency and democratization to trading, enabling individual traders to have access to markets previously dominated by institutional players.
