Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. is opening access to Kalshi’s prediction markets for thousands of institutional clients. CoinDesk reports the move enables Cantor’s roughly 3,000 institutional clients to execute large “block” trades in event contracts through the bank.
The announcements are framed as part of Kalshi’s broader effort to draw more traditional, institutional participation into the prediction market sector. Bloomberg describes the development as the latest step in encouraging Wall Street firms to use these event-betting venues, signaling increased distribution and market infrastructure for large-scale participants. Both outlets characterize the change as an expansion of client access via Cantor rather than a change to Kalshi’s core market structure.
While the sources differ mainly in emphasis—CoinDesk focuses on the mechanics of block trading and client count, and Bloomberg highlights the wider push toward institutional involvement—they agree that Cantor is adding institutional connectivity to Kalshi’s market platform.
