Kalshi Expands Crypto Perpetuals with Five New Assets for US Traders

Kalshi, a designated contract market regulated by the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), has expanded its cryptocurrency derivatives lineup. The platform launched perpetual contracts linked to five new assets: BNB, Cardano's ADA, Worldcoin's WLD, Aave's AAVE, and Venice Token's VVV.

The contracts are margined and settled in US dollars, allowing traders to take long or short positions without a fixed expiration date. Maximum leverage varies by asset, with approximately 4.5 times available for BNB and 1.9 times for Venice Token, according to the platform's product information.

Kalshi now offers Bitcoin and 17 altcoin perpetual contracts, including existing markets like Ether, XRP, Solana, Hyperliquid, and Zcash.
