Kalshi is the largest prediction market in America, building a unique trading economy around political, sports, and cultural events. While some states view it as an illegal operation requiring gambling licenses, others—including certain courts and members of the Trump administration—see it as a groundbreaking financial opportunity.

On this episode of Equity, Max Zeff sits down with Kalshi CEO Tarek Mansour at the latest StrictlyVC event in San Francisco. Mansour shares why he sees Kalshi as a global source of truth.

Listen to the full episode to hear more about:

  • How Kalshi is creating a new trading economy around political and cultural events.
  • The regulatory challenges and opportunities that prediction markets face.
  • Mansour’s vision for Kalshi as a global tool for decision-making and transparency.
  • The controversy surrounding Kalshi’s status and its ongoing legal battles.

Equity is TechCrunch’s flagship podcast, produced by Theresa Loconsolo, and posts every Wednesday and Friday.
