Kalshi Seeks CFTC Approval for Margin Trading Expansion
Kalshi, the New York-based prediction market platform, is in advanced discussions with the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to introduce margin trading capabilities. Regulatory approval remains pending, with no clear timeline for a decision.
