CFTC-regulated Kalshi launches US ether perpetuals fee-free, expands altcoin derivatives and readies terminal
CFTC-regulated prediction market Kalshi launched ETH perpetual futures for U.S. users on June 4 and is waiving trading fees for a limited time.
Kalshi opened Ethereum perpetual futures to U.S. traders on June 4 and has waived trading fees for a limited promotional period, the company said as ether traded near $1,769 amid a broader selloff [1] [2].
The product follows Kalshi's earlier Bitcoin perpetuals debut and builds on a filing that covers roughly a dozen altcoins, expanding the firm's CFTC-regulated derivatives offering [2] [1].
Kalshi noted that proposed contracts for XRP and other altcoins remain subject to separate regulatory review, and separate reports say the firm is developing a prediction-market terminal aimed at professional traders [3] [4].
Kalshi's ETH perpetuals broaden its regulated product suite while temporary fee waivers aim to attract U.S. traders; some altcoin contracts remain pending regulatory approval [1] [3] [4].
