Kalshi

A regulated exchange for trading real-world events

Kalshi is a prediction-style exchange where you buy YES/NO event contracts that settle to $1 (or $0) on outcomes. Things like CPI prints, rate moves, elections and sports. You get transparent market rules, a clean UI, and tools to express a thesis or hedge a view without touching stocks or options.

Why it’s interesting

Regulated rails: operates as a U.S. CFTC-designated exchange, not a gray-area app.

Price = probability: $0.01–$0.99 pricing turns collective information into actionable odds.

Hedge or express: place targeted macro/policy views without building complex spreads.

Clear playbook: market rules and fee schedule are published and easy to grok.

Bottom line: If you want a straightforward way to turn beliefs about headlines into positions, Kalshi is up there with Polymarket with the cleanest on-ramp.
