Kalshi Seeks $65 Billion Valuation in New Funding Round Just Weeks After Closing at $40 Billion
Read this in the Market Flux appPrediction marketplace Kalshi is in talks with investors to raise a fresh round of capital at a $65 billion valuation, according to people familiar with the matter, just weeks after finalizing a $1 billion funding round at a $40 billion valuation in late October 2026. The new round would represent a 62.5 percent jump in valuation in a matter of weeks, underscoring the rapid investor appetite for prediction market platforms.
The October fundraise, which brought Kalshi's total capital raised to approximately $3.65 billion across 12 rounds, had been expected to be the company's last before a potential public offering. The renewed interest from investors suggests Kalshi's growth trajectory and plans to build a broader financial exchange beyond event contracts have accelerated that timeline significantly.
