Kalshi, the only CFTC-regulated prediction market in the U.S., has introduced a new feature allowing traders to bet on cryptocurrency price movements, specifically Bitcoin, without the need to purchase the cryptocurrency itself. This move comes as part of the platform's expansion into crypto price bets, with options that include betting on Bitcoin reaching price milestones of $100,000 and $150,000 by 2024. The bets will be placed in dollars, offering a regulated avenue for speculators to forecast and bet on future crypto prices. Kalshi is recognized as the first regulated market to trade directly on crypto prices and various crypto events.
