Prediction Market Kalshi Launches Sports Betting

Published

on

 

Kalshi filed with the CFTC to list Super Bowl betting odds. Industry observers wonder whether exchanges could disrupt traditional sportsbooks.

The trading exchange filed with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission on Wednesday to put up odds on Super Bowl futures.

This comes weeks after competing exchange Crypto.com did the same. The CFTC asked Crypto.com to take down the odds pending the regulatory review, but the exchange rebuffed the request. As Front Office Sports noted previously, Crypto.com is sensitive about labeling the market as sports betting, instead referring to them as event contracts that are traded as derivatives and regulated by the CFTC. In markets outside of sports, Kalshi has specifically referred to customers’ risk as bets.

The CFTC, which regulates the U.S. derivatives market, will flip from majority Democrat to Republican when chairman Rostin Behman leaves the commission. Commissioner Caroline Pham was appointed acting chair by President Donald Trump last week.

Kalshi successfully fought CFTC regulation to post presidential election betting odds last year. Founded in 2018, the exchange offers trading on anything from who will win the Oscar for Best Picture to whether Trump will buy Greenland. Its backers include VC firms Sequoia, Neo, Y Combinator, Mantis VC, and private equity maven Henry Kravis.

Bally’s Corporation has completed the previously announced transactions with Standard General and its affiliates including The Queen Casino & Entertainment, a regional casino operator majority-owned by funds managed by Standard General.

Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, Bally’s and Queen combined, with Queen shareholders receiving consideration of 30.5 million shares. Thereafter, the Company paid cash consideration of $18.25 per share to holders of 22.8 million of the Company’s outstanding shares. The cash merger consideration was financed by the issuance of $500 million in senior secured notes due in 2028 provided exclusively by funds managed by Apollo, along with Bally’s available funds on hand and its available funding sources.

Bally’s stockholders owning 17.9 million outstanding shares elected to retain their Bally’s stock by means of a rollover election and continue as stockholders of Bally’s. As a result, 48.4 million shares of common stock are now outstanding upon completion of the merger transactions. Warrants representing the right to purchase up to 11.6 million shares of Bally’s common stock also remain outstanding.

Shares of Bally’s common stock trading under the “BALY.T” ticker which remain outstanding as a result of the rollover election will continue trading on the New York Stock Exchange and revert back to the “BALY” ticker.

Interwetten continues its successful partnership with the New England Patriots. The online sports betting pioneer and the National Football League’s (NFL) record champion expanded their partnership and extended it for another two years until 2026.

“Enthusiasm for the NFL in Europe, particularly in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, keeps growing every year. And the New England Patriots are more than just a football team, they embody the sport like no other team. As Super Bowl record holders, they stand for success, tradition, and passion. These are values we hold dear at Interwetten, too. We are extremely pleased to continue this unique partnership and to inspire the NFL community with joint activities and promotions,” said Wolfgang Fabian, founder and owner of Interwetten.

The partnership will continue to focus on unique experiences for fans and sports enthusiasts: live events in Germany, exclusive fan trips to Foxborough, and meetings with Patriots alumni. Interwetten expert and German soccer all-star Lothar Matthäus also shows his enthusiasm for the NFL and was already in action in a Patriots jersey in the run-up to this year’s NFL game in Munich.

“The partnership with Interwetten has been instrumental in increasing our reach in Europe and attracting new fans and target groups. We share the same goal: to have people in Europe experience American football and inspire them to make it their sport—on the field and off the field. This is at the core of this partnership, and we are happy to continue this joint journey with Interwetten,” said Joe Dorant, Senior Director of International Business of the New England Patriots.
