On June 10th, according to The Wall Street Journal, the U.S. prediction market platform Kalshi plans to introduce new regulations in the coming weeks, requiring participants in certain sensitive prediction markets to disclose their employer information to strengthen monitoring of insider trading and market manipulation.
Under the new rules, trading markets involving corporate performance, national security, and geopolitical events (such as markets related to the Iran war) that may involve access to significant non-public information will require users to submit their employer information before participating. Kalshi stated that they generally do not proactively verify the submitted information, but if suspicious trading activity is detected, they will initiate an investigation and request employment verification.
The Kalshi Audit Committee report shows that the platform has submitted over 20 suspicious trading leads to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Department of Justice in the first quarter of 2026. The subjects of investigations include former U.S. Congressman George Santos and accounts linked to some military family members.
