Phantom taps Kalshi to offer regulated prediction markets in wallet

Resumo

Cryptocurrency wallet Phantom has partnered with regulated prediction market Kalshi to integrate event-based trading directly into its wallet interface. The new feature, Phantom Prediction Markets, will allow users to trade tokenized positions on real-world events in politics, economics, sports, and culture without leaving the app. This move aligns with a broader trend, as major crypto exchanges like Gemini and Coinbase are also entering the prediction market space. However, the industry faces regulatory challenges, exemplified by Connecticut's recent cease-and-desist orders against several platforms, including Kalshi, which is now legally challenging the state's actions.

Crypto wallet application Phantom has partnered with regulated prediction market Kalshi to bring event-based trading directly inside its wallet interface, signaling a deeper convergence between onchain finance and real-world outcome betting.

The companies said Friday that the integration would allow Phantom users to discover trending events, track live odds and place bets without leaving their wallets.

A new feature called Phantom Prediction Markets would allow users to trade tokenized positions that reference Kalshi’s event markets across politics, economics, sports and culture.

“By integrating a layer of tokenized positions referencing Kalshi’s regulated event markets with Phantom, users can trade what they care about in real time,” said Phantom CEO Brandon Millman.

Crypto exchanges eye US prediction markets

Phantom’s move comes as major crypto trading platforms race to enter the US prediction markets business.

On Thursday, Gemini Titan, an affiliate of the crypto exchange Gemini, received a designated contract market license from the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Gemini said it plans to enter the prediction markets space.

The exchange said that it would allow users to access event contract trading on its web platform. Following its announcement, Gemini shares went up by nearly 14% in after-hours trading.

On Nov. 19, tech researcher Jane Manchun Wong, known for discovering in-development features on Big Tech websites, claimed that crypto exchange Coinbase is working on a prediction market. Wong shared screenshots apparently showing the unreleased platform.

Citing anonymous sources, Bloomberg reported that Coinbase plans to announce the launch of its prediction markets and tokenized equities.

A Coinbase spokesperson previously told Cointelegraph that they company will hold a livestream on Wednesday to showcase new products. However, the spokesperson did not mention prediction markets or tokenized stocks.

Prediction markets face regulatory pushback

While prediction markets have gained popularity in the US, the state of Connecticut has recently taken a stance against certain platforms.

On Dec. 4, the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection (DCP) sent cease and desist orders to Robinhood, Kalshi and Crypto.com, alleging that they were conducting unlicensed online gambling. However, Kalshi immediately took action a day later.

The prediction market platform sued the DCP, arguing that its event contracts are lawful under federal law.

Connecticut federal court judge Vernon Oliver stated in an order that the DCP must refrain from taking enforcement action against Kalshi. This temporarily stops the DCP’s cease and desist order against Kalshi.

February 3 Market Summary: U.S. Stocks and Gold Rebound Together, Fed Still Mired in Independence Crisis

Market Summary, February 3: U.S. stocks and gold both rebounded, while the Federal Reserve faces an ongoing independence crisis. Spot gold surged 3.56% to close at $4,826/oz, marking a strong recovery after its sharpest single-day drop since 1980 the previous Friday. The sell-off was triggered by Donald Trump's nomination of Kevin Warsh—a known hawk—as the next Fed Chair, raising fears of prolonged high interest rates. However, markets are reassessing: Warsh’s potential appointment is not immediate, and the long-term "de-dollarization" narrative for gold remains intact. Technical factors, including margin hikes and stop-loss triggers, exacerbated the initial drop but also cleared excess leverage. Major banks like JPMorgan and Deutsche Bank maintain bullish long-term targets. Bitcoin struggled around $78,700, up 2% on the day but down over 10% for the week. It faced pressure from broader risk-off sentiment, liquidations of long positions exceeding $500 million, and a lack of new catalysts. Ethereum fell even more sharply, down 19% weekly. Altcoins broadly declined as capital concentrated in Bitcoin and a few high-quality assets. U.S. stocks rose, with the Dow up 1.05%, the S&P 500 up 0.54%, and the Nasdaq up 0.56%. The rebound was driven by stronger-than-expected manufacturing PMI data, gains in AI-related and transportation stocks, and a general recovery from Friday’s panic. However, underlying weaknesses persisted, as seen in Disney’s 7% drop on poor earnings. The core market tension remains the Fed’s credibility crisis. Trump’s nomination of Warsh has intensified concerns over the central bank’s independence. Markets are weighing two scenarios: continued hawkish policy hurting all assets, or political pressure leading to premature rate cuts, risking inflation and dollar devaluation. Upcoming data—including ADP employment, ISM services PMI, jobless claims, and especially the nonfarm payrolls report—will be critical for near-term direction. Strong data could reinforce expectations of delayed rate cuts, while weak figures may increase bets on earlier easing. Current market pricing suggests a 40% chance of a March rate cut.
