Kalshi has partnered with CNN to incorporate prediction market data into its programming, announced on December 2, 2025.
This partnership reflects Kalshi’s regulatory achievements and may influence institutional confidence in prediction markets, enhancing their role in financial and political analysis.
Kalshi has become CNN’s official partner, integrating prediction market data into its programming. The collaboration aims to enrich information consumption by utilizing market data to replace speculation, as stated by CEO Tarek Mansour.
The initiative involves CNN’s Chief Data Analyst Harry Enten, who is managing the integration. He intends to use prediction data alongside traditional polling methods to offer dynamic insights on political and cultural events.
Kalshi also announced a $1 billion Series E funding round, doubling its valuation. This financial backing and partnership highlight the burgeoning credibility and liquidity within its markets. The company posted record trading volumes in November.
Financially, this move is set to accelerate market expansion and blockchain innovations. Upcoming features include wallet-native participation with Trust Wallet, indicating a possible future intersection with cryptocurrency technologies.
This partnership is a first for major US networks, bringing unique prediction market insights to news coverage. It reflects both historical and regulatory advancements for prediction markets in the US, notably with legal victories in Nevada and New Jersey.
The move sets a precedent for how major news organizations may incorporate data-driven insights into editorial strategies. Kalshi’s regulatory progress enables broader prediction market offerings, though it currently operates outside direct cryptocurrency influence.
“Our role is to transform information consumption by replacing speculation with data from prediction markets.” — Tarek Mansour, CEO and co-founder, Kalshi.
