Kalshi in depth

Kalshi is a CFTC-regulated prediction exchange where sports outcomes trade as event contracts. Because it's federally regulated rather than state-licensed as a sportsbook, it reaches an audience traditional books can't.

It's exactly the kind of emerging, low-competition operator the affiliate strategy targets first.
