Kalshi Launches Gold and Silver Perpetual Futures Contracts
Kalshi has expanded its lineup of perpetual futures contracts by filing to launch gold and silver perps, scheduled to begin trading on Sept. 9.
The two dollar-settled perpetual futures contracts, GOLDPERP and SILVERPERP, will use Pyth Network prices and settle in U.S. dollars, offering traders exposure to changes in the relevant metal's spot price without requiring delivery of physical gold or silver.
Kalshi filed the products through the CFTC’s self-certification process, which allows a designated contract market to certify that a new product follows the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulator's rules.
The contracts will trade around the clock without fixed expiration dates, with funding payments used to keep their traded prices close to their reference markets.
