Kalshi Launches Data Feed on Sports and Cryptocurrency Perpetual Contracts via DoubleZero

cryptonews.ruPublicado a 2026-08-12Actualizado a 2026-08-12

Resumen

Kalshi, a prediction market, has launched a real-time order book data feed for its sports and cryptocurrency perpetual contracts via DoubleZero's dedicated fiber-optic network, DoubleZero Edge. This provides subscribers with machine-readable market data without requiring them to build their own API-based infrastructure. DoubleZero co-founder Austin Federa emphasized that access to such data is a critical part of market structure, which has been lacking in newer financial segments like crypto, perpetuals, and prediction markets. He stated this initiative provides institutional-grade infrastructure to industry participants. According to Dune data, sports is Kalshi's second-largest category by weekly notional trading volume at 37.8%, while crypto is third at 20.3%. Exotic events rank first. This launch occurs amidst a regulatory dispute over Kalshi's sports contracts. Several U.S. states, including Michigan, Kentucky, and Nevada, have taken legal action or issued temporary bans, arguing these contracts are unlicensed sports betting. Kalshi and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) maintain they are derivatives under the CFTC's exclusive jurisdiction. The CFTC has also sued some states over this matter. Separately, OpenAI recently began displaying Kalshi's prediction market odds for FIFA World Cup matches in ChatGPT search results.

In a statement released on Wednesday and shared with Cointelegraph, the companies announced that Kalshi's real-time order book is now available via the dedicated DoubleZero Edge fiber optic network.

Kalshi stated it has become the first prediction market to distribute real-time order book data for sports and cryptocurrency perpetual contracts via DoubleZero Edge. New network subscribers will gain access to this data.

Users requiring a machine-readable feed of prediction market data will be able to receive it via a dedicated channel, without having to build their own infrastructure based on order books and the Application Programming Interface (API).

Access to data is a 'critical piece' of market structure. However, in new financial segments, including cryptocurrencies, perpetual contracts, and prediction markets, the corresponding infrastructure was lacking, stated DoubleZero co-founder Austin Feder. According to him, this initiative will provide industry participants with institutional-grade infrastructure.

Sports is the second-largest category for Kalshi by volume, accounting for 37.8% of the weekly notional trading volume. Cryptocurrency ranks third at 20.3%. The top spot is held by exotic events, representing 39.4% of Kalshi's weekly notional trading volume, according to Dune data.

In early July, OpenAI began displaying Kalshi prediction market odds for FIFA World Cup matches in ChatGPT search results.

Kalshi's sports contracts are at the center of a jurisdictional dispute between state regulators and the federal Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). State authorities argue these contracts are wagers, falling under state gambling laws. The CFTC and Kalshi consider them derivatives, subject to the commission's exclusive jurisdiction.

On June 29, a judge in Michigan temporarily banned Kalshi from accepting bets on sports events from state residents. A few days earlier, Kentucky filed a lawsuit against five prediction market platforms, including Kalshi and Polymarket, accusing them of operating unlicensed sports betting platforms. Nevada also imposed a temporary ban on Kalshi's activities earlier in March.

The CFTC has also filed lawsuits against several states, asserting that contracts for federally regulated events fall under its exclusive authority.

Chainlink Whales’ Activity Hits Five-Month High as Holders Anticipate Breakout

Activity of large Chainlink investors has surged to a five-month high, potentially signaling a bullish breakout for LINK, according to data from analytics firm Santiment. On August 12, the network processed 246 large transactions of at least $100,000 each, the highest daily count in five months, a pattern historically linked to price increases. Despite this surge in whale activity, LINK's price, trading at $8.80 at the time of the report, has been largely stagnant over the past year and remains down roughly 83% from its May 2021 all-time high. However, Santiment noted a bullish technical signal as LINK broke a descending trend line on August 11. Standard Chartered offered a significantly optimistic long-term outlook, setting price targets of $13 by 2026, $41 by 2027, and a higher target for 2030. The bank's forecast is based on Chainlink's potential role as a foundational layer for tokenized real-world assets, a market projected to reach around $4 trillion by 2028. The report highlighted that Chainlink's utility and adoption continue to grow, with recent integrations including a cross-border settlement project with 47 banks and partnerships with major institutions like DTCC, Robinhood, and Amundi. Despite this expanding infrastructure, LINK's price has struggled to break out of its $8-$10 range for most of the year.

XRP Price Forecast Amid Accumulation by Large Holders

XRP Price Forecast Amid Rising Accumulation by Large Holders On August 12, XRP's price increased by 1.36% to $1.01, recovering after briefly dropping below the $1 support level the previous day. Data indicates that despite weak price momentum, activity from large holders (whales) and active addresses is growing. Santiment data shows a net increase of 32 wallets holding over 1 million XRP over three months, starting May 2026. This accumulation suggests a transfer of supply from weak to strong hands. While large investors bought, retail selling contributed to a 29% decline in XRP's market cap over the same period. Concurrently, the number of active XRP addresses surged 84% from August 1 to August 11. This network activity rise occurs ahead of an XRP Ledger update expected to boost DeFi usage and despite a low 22% probability of the CLARITY Act passing in 2026, creating a bullish divergence. Technically, XRP's drop below $1 on August 12 marked a 20-month low, with the RSI at 37 favoring bears. Further sell pressure could push the price down to the $0.85 Fibonacci level. However, analysts note XRP may be oversold after a 71% decline from July 2025. A strong uptrend would require overcoming resistance at the $1.20 Fibonacci level. Separately, the Coreum bridge connecting to the XRP Ledger was hacked for $200,000 worth of XRP, exploiting a deposit verification flaw. The Ripple community confirmed the XRP Ledger itself remains secure.

Solana Nearly Halted Finalization Due to an Outage

On August 12th, a routing failure at infrastructure provider TeraSwitch caused approximately 90 Solana validators, representing 28.83% of staked SOL, to go offline simultaneously. This brought the network dangerously close to the 33.34% threshold at which transaction finality would halt, stopping the blockchain. The incident, highlighted by Marinade Finance, lasted about 33 minutes before routing was restored. The affected validators missed out on roughly 333 SOL in rewards during the downtime. The event underscored significant risks from infrastructure concentration, as TeraSwitch alone managed validators with 27.34% of the total staked SOL prior to the outage. Marinade Finance stated it would revise limits on validator distribution across autonomous systems and data centers to improve resilience. Some major operators, like Coinbase, already distribute infrastructure across multiple providers with backup servers to mitigate such single points of failure. The incident echoes a 2022 event where provider Hetzner, hosting ~40% of validators, disconnected nodes, though the network remained operational.

US Consumer Price Index Drops to 3.4% as Expected, Bitcoin Rises

U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation for July met expectations, easing concerns about a Federal Reserve interest rate hike this year. Following the data release, Bitcoin recovered, rising above the key psychological level of $64,000. The U.S. CPI fell to 3.4% year-over-year and 0.1% month-over-month, aligning with forecasts. The core CPI also matched expectations, dropping to 2.5% annually and 0.2% monthly. Bitcoin climbed to around $64,100, recovering from an intraday low near $63,400. However, trading remains in a narrow range due to uncertainty from U.S.-Iran tensions and their potential impact on energy prices. Fed Presidents Austan Goolsbee and Neel Kashkari have indicated inflation is a top concern, with Kashkari advocating for rate hikes. Despite this, the probability of a Fed rate hike at the September FOMC meeting decreased after the CPI report, which is viewed as positive for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market. Market forecasts now suggest a 67% chance rates will remain unchanged. Data from prediction platform Polymarket shows the likelihood of a rate hike this year has fallen to 54%, down from a recent peak of 60% and a July high of 79% amid escalating U.S.-Iran tensions. Market attention now shifts to tomorrow's Producer Price Index (PPI) report for a more complete picture of inflation. A low PPI reading could further reduce rate hike fears, especially following July's jobs report which indicated ongoing labor market instability.
