Kalshi Breaks Industry Barrier with Real-Time Order Book Data
Kalshi, a US-based prediction-market platform, is set to revolutionize the industry by offering real-time full order book data for the first time. The service will be provided through DoubleZero Edge, its low-latency data transmission service built on a fiber-optic network.
The data will include Level 1 and Level 2 information, showing the best bid and ask prices, executed trades, and the full depth of the order book. Initially, this data will only be available for actively traded prediction-market contracts tied to sports and crypto perpetual futures.
Kalshi Research, a unit of Kalshi, will provide the data. The company plans to add historical trading data later on. To make this service more accessible, Kalshi has decided to forgo its share of revenue sharing for one year after the launch.
