Kalshi to begin collecting customer employment information in some markets
Prediction market platform Kalshi will start verifying the employment of its users in markets that are at high risk for insider trading, the company announced on Tuesday.

Conversations surrounding the threat of insider trading on prediction markets spiked in early 2026, when news broke that a soldier allegedly used classified insider information about the operation to oust former Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro to place a bet on the event on Polymarket.
