  • Kalshi Perpetual Futures Trading Surpasses $1 Billion in First Week
    June 9, 2026, 3:13 PM EDT. Kalshi's crypto perpetual futures, or 'perps,' have exceeded $1 billion in trading volume within a week of launch, the prediction market platform told CNBC. Perps are futures contracts with no expiration, enabling speculation without owning the underlying asset. Initially launched last Wednesday, the contracts saw over $100 million traded in the first 24 hours. This asset class, which commands $90 trillion globally, was previously inaccessible in the U.S. Kalshi's product is the first U.S.-regulated perpetual futures offering, approved by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission on May 29. The platform's waitlist once exceeded 1 million users, reflecting strong domestic demand. Kalshi CEO Tarek Mansour will discuss the product on CNBC's 'Fast Money' on Tuesday at 5 p.m. ET.
