CryptoWorld News reports, citing Bloomberg, that Kalshi’s perpetual contracts have surpassed $5.5 billion in trading volume two weeks after launch. The company is currently in discussions with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) about adding more contracts and expanding its business beyond digital assets into asset categories outside the digital-asset space. At present, Kalshi offers 11 types of cryptocurrency perpetual contracts, and the World Cup and the NBA Finals have driven Kalshi’s daily trading volume to exceed $1 billion for three consecutive days.

11 trading pairs are still too few; wait until they list more altcoin perpetuals before playing again.

World Cup + NBA driving transaction volume, the boundaries between sports betting and contracts are becoming increasingly blurred

If the CFTC loosens up, we might soon see forex, interest rate, and even weather derivatives contracts. Looking forward to it.

Kalshi's growth rate is a bit outrageous, 5.5 billion in two weeks, traditional futures traders must be speechless.
