Kalshi CEO: Supports new legislation banning insider trading in prediction markets; Kalshi is a federally regulated exchange.

According to Foresight News , Kalshi CEO Tarek Mansour stated on LinkedIn that Kalshi has always strictly prohibited insider trading. He believes that some recent reports have confused regulated prediction markets with unregulated offshore prediction markets, and emphasized that the actions of non-US, unregulated platforms are unrelated to regulated US platforms. Mansour pointed out that Kalshi is a federally regulated exchange, and its insider trading rules are based on those of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Nasdaq: if a user possesses material non-public information about a market, trading is prohibited, otherwise it is considered a financial crime. This applies to government employees, policymakers, executives, or anyone possessing non-public information.
