Institutional market makers and hedge funds using Talos can now trade on Kalshi’s prediction markets and US-regulated crypto perpetuals directly through their existing digital asset trading infrastructure. The integration eliminates the need for separate exchange connections, allowing firms to route orders to Kalshi using the same order management systems, execution tools, and risk controls they already employ across other venues.
Eligible clients can automate strategies, execute multi-leg trades, and access request-for-quote workflows for larger transactions without undertaking new technical buildouts. Kalshi, which launched regulated crypto perpetual futures earlier this year, operates as a CFTC-regulated exchange. The integration currently supports prediction markets and perpetuals separately, with spreads between the two planned for future rollout.
Later this year, Talos plans to extend its dealer software to enable brokers and trading platforms to distribute Kalshi event contracts to their own clients, subject to local regulatory requirements. A unified prediction market data feed is also planned.
