Prediction markets just moved inside a self-custody wallet.

Phantom began rolling out Kalshi event contracts to US users on Oct 23, with access expanding over the next few weeks.

How it works:
• Trade sports, politics, economics and culture markets in the Phantom app
• KYC is done with Kalshi, a CFTC-registered exchange that holds the accounts and executes trades
• Funding via Phantom's dollar-pegged CASH stablecoin; winnings go back to Phantom Cash
• Fee quoted at $0.02 per contract plus a small network fee
• Phantom relies on CFTC no-action relief (Staff Letter 26-09) to avoid introducing-broker registration

The catch: state fights with Kalshi are still live. Phantom is blocking some categories in Michigan, Nevada and Washington, and those limits could change as cases play out.

$SOL is at $102.53 (-0.03% 24h, Binance spot, 13:17 KST), with a 14-day range of $98.62 to $113.40.

Bull case: wallets become all-in-one finance apps, bringing new users and stablecoin flow onchain.
Bear case: state rulings shrink what can be offered, and thin markets make it hard to cash out at fair prices.

Would you trade event contracts straight from your wallet?
