How event contracts workKalshi's event contracts let you trade on real-world outcomes that matter to you using simple yes-or-no questions. Will Donald Trump win the election? Will Philadelphia win the title? Will BTC hit 150K? Will Beyoncé drop a new album?Prices range from $0.01 to $0.99, reflecting how likely the market thinks an event is to happen. Prices move as predictions shift, right up until the contract expires. And you're free to buy in or sell out at any time to lock in gains or cut losses—just like trading a stock. If the event happens by the contract's expiration date, it pays $1. If not, it pays $0.Best of all, everything is fully regulated by the CFTC, so you can trade with confidence.
