Kalshi see valuation double to $22B after $1B raise as prediction markets boom
Fresh capital from top Wall Street and Silicon Valley firms signals increasing confidence in regulated event trading and retail prediction markets.
Prediction marketplace Kalshi has reached a $22 billion valuation after closing a $1 billion Series F funding round, underscoring growing venture capital appetite for prediction markets amid surging retail adoption.
The new valuation doubles Kalshi’s worth from just five months ago. The funding round was led by Coatue Management, with participation from Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital, Morgan Stanley and Ark Invest.
The raise comes as investors increasingly view prediction markets as one of the fastest-growing segments of digital finance. Andreessen Horowitz’s crypto unit, a16z crypto, recently raised $2.2 billion for its latest fund and identified prediction markets as a major investment theme.
