Kalshi Hits $40 Billion Valuation After $1 Billion Raise
Prediction-market operator Kalshi has secured another $1 billion in funding, lifting its valuation to $40 billion, nearly 82% above its $22 billion valuation in May. The Sequoia Capital and Wellington Management-led investment marks the company’s second billion-dollar capital raise in roughly five months. Kalshi is preparing to challenge established derivatives exchanges while facing a regulatory fight over sports contracts.
