Kalshi has undertaken several initiatives to expand its financial services and market offerings. The platform partnered with crypto custodian BitGo to enable Kalshi Prime clients to use digital assets, such as Bitcoin and Ether, as collateral for margin loans to fund perpetual futures positions.

Additionally, Kalshi entered a partnership with S&P Dow Jones Indices (DJI) to offer event contracts tied to the provider’s benchmarks. The company is also preparing to launch futures markets tracking inflation metrics, specifically the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and core inflation, with support from Michael Ashton of Enduring Investments to design the contracts.
