Kalshi Expands Rapid-Resolution Trading to Precious Metals

Kalshi, a CFTC-regulated prediction market platform, has expanded its offerings to include 15-minute gold and silver markets. This move marks an extension of the company's rapid-resolution trading format, previously only available for cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana.

The platform launched its Commodities Hub in April 2026, offering daily and weekly event contracts on gold and silver prices. Trading volumes in these existing commodity markets have ranged between $16,000 and $71,000 per market.

Kalshi is using Pyth Network for real-time price feeds on its commodity contracts. This decentralized oracle network pulls pricing data from institutional trading firms and exchanges, then publishes it on-chain with sub-second latency.
