Prediction market platform Kalshy has officially become a unicorn, raising $185 million in a Series C round that values the company at $2 billion. The funding round was led by top crypto VC firm Paradigm, marking a major milestone for Kalshy as it continues to redefine how people bet on real-world events.
CEO Tarek Mansour took to X to announce the good news, stating that:
‘People choose to work at Kalshi not because of the money we’ve raised, but because of our ambition: build the most important financial market on the planet.’ —Tarek Mansour, X post
Kalshi’s outstanding evaluation shows a growing interest in prediction markets, which links to the ongoing developments in the crypto adoption sphere.
But what does this all mean?
It means that the financial system is gradually shifting towards blockchain technology, primarily for its effectiveness, but also for its growth potential and the signs are clear, as Kalshi’s case isn’t unique.
This is possible thanks to several things, like the airdrop system, with the project offering you $BTC airdrops every time Bitcoin reaches predetermined price points ($150K and $200K).
An even larger $BTCBULL airdrop awaits when Bitcoin reaches $250K, offering plenty of incentives for you to join the hype train.
And speaking of incentives and predictions, $BTCBULL promises to make it big post-launch.
Very few things are certain when it comes to the crypto market, but Bitcoin has a knack for exceeding even the most optimistic predictions and expectations.
Don’t forget, this isn’t financial advice. Do your own research (DYOR) before investing and manage the trading risk wisely.
