CFTC Warns Kalshi of Charges Over Dozens of Unreported Products

Summary
The CFTC has privately warned Kalshi that charges could be imminent over whether it failed to notify the agency about dozens of new products under development.
The probe centers on product launches and submissions, with the warning signaling an enforcement action may come soon, though the matter could still end in a settlement.
Kalshi said the issue was a procedural error involving a handful of contracts, many of them not live, and said it is already addressing the problem.
The dispute underscores regulatory pressure on prediction-market platforms, which Kalshi says offer traditional derivatives rather than wagers.
