Ever since the legalization of election betting in the U. S. , Kalshi has been making waves. Now, the prediction market firm has brought on Donald Trump Jr. as a strategic adviser. Kalshi's CEO, Tarek Mansour, sees Trump Jr. as a perfect fit due to his keen interest in new technologies and media. Trump Jr. himself was impressed by Kalshi's quick election results, which he found more reliable than mainstream media reports. This move is part of a broader trend of business leaders aligning with the incoming Trump administration. Mansour insists that Kalshi isn't a political company, but rather one dedicated to building a reliable prediction market. Since the legalization of election betting, Kalshi has seen a surge in users who are sticking around even after the election. Current popular markets include potential pardon recipients and daily temperatures in cities like Chicago.
