Major prediction market company Kalshi is now offering on-chain event contracts, allowing users to post their predictions on the Solana blockchain, the company announced Monday.
This move will allow Kalshi to tap into the finances of the crypto economy and will bring together its on-chain and off-chain liquidity into one large pool.
“The ultimate moat for any exchange is liquidity,” said Kalshi, head of Crypto John Wang posted on X.
“Kalshi is the only prediction market in the world that merges on-chain and off-chain, US and international into one giant liquidity pool. Tokenization is the end game: non-custodial, instant and crypto-native.”
The company has been managing event contracts on Solana DEX aggregator Jupiter since at least last month and is now leaning on Jupiter and Solana trading infrastructure company DFlow to facilitate its global liquidity pool.
Kalshi is also looking for more companies to help distribute its event markets, introducing the Kalshi Builders Program with $2 million in grants to companies that add on-chain prediction markets to their front-end or uniquely build on their event contracts.
“We are interested in a wide range of projects, including trading bots, analytics dashboards, educational content, market building tools, data visualizations, mobile apps, browser extensions, and any innovative use cases that leverage Kalshi’s prediction markets,” says the builder’s program FAQ.
Eligible parties will receive a building code that will track volume through their platform, ultimately earning on the volume they facilitate in the Kalshi markets.
