Record trading volumes and expanding prediction-market adoption fuel the company’s surging growth.
Prediction-market platform Kalshi has raised $1 billion in fresh capital, doubling its valuation to $11 billion after reporting its strongest month of trading activity to date. The latest funding comes amid accelerating interest in event-based markets and broader integrations across the financial and tech sectors.
The company said its Series E round was led by major digital-asset venture firms, with additional support from long-time backers. According to Kalshi, the investment will be used to expand brokerage connections, deepen partnerships with media organizations, and broaden its catalog of tradable events.
Its CEO described the platform as a system designed to replace speculation with measurable probabilities, emphasizing that prediction markets offer “a more transparent way of engaging with real-world outcomes.”
Record Volumes Push Platform to New Heights
Kalshi reported $4.54 billion in trading volume in November, surpassing its previous monthly record. The company says activity has grown 1,000% since 2024 and now exceeds $1 billion per week. These gains place Kalshi ahead of rival platforms, though competitors are also reporting historically high participation.
Kalshi’s latest momentum comes as search engines and exchanges move to incorporate prediction-market data into their platforms. With additional integrations underway and a rapidly expanding user base, the company is positioning itself as a central player in the future of event-based financial markets.
