The integration, announced from New York on March 17, 2026, comes as prediction markets rapidly gain traction as an alternative to polls and punditry in pricing political, economic, weather and cultural risk.<\/p>\n<p>Under the deal, Kalshi will work directly with Fox\u2019s data and production teams to supply live pricing on \u201cevent contracts\u201d \u2014 futures\u2011style instruments tied to outcomes ranging from elections and interest\u2011rate decisions to storm paths and entertainment milestones. Fox said the data will be embedded across linear TV and digital products, including bespoke visualizations and on\u2011screen tickers similar to those already piloted at CNN and CNBC. Kalshi is licensed by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) as a Designated Contract Market, putting its event contracts under the same federal regime that governs traditional futures and swaps.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>\u201cMore people are watching Kalshi\u2019s forecasts than trading them, which says a lot: our data effectively complements news and polls,\u201d Kalshi co\u2011founder and CEO Tarek Mansour said in a statement announcing the Fox deal. He framed the integration as an antidote to information chaos, adding that \u201cas misinformation grows more common, Kalshi offers accurate, unbiased data to help people better understand what\u2019s going on in the world.\u201d Paul Cheesbrough, CEO of Tubi Media Group, called prediction markets \u201can essential data point and a compelling new experience across our live content portfolio,\u201d arguing that Kalshi\u2019s real\u2011time odds give audiences \u201cdeeper insights and a more engaging way to follow the stories that matter most.\u201d<\/p>\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"prediction-markets-move-into-big-media\">Prediction markets move into big media<\/h1>\n<p>The Fox agreement follows Kalshi\u2019s newsroom partnership with CNN, which brought live probability tickers into one of the world\u2019s largest cable news operations and helped the exchange secure a reported $1 billion funding round at an $11 billion valuation. In that earlier crypto.news story, Kalshi disclosed that its real\u2011time odds would appear across CNN\u2019s TV and digital output, guided by chief data analyst Harry Enten. Reuters has reported that prediction markets surged in popularity after the 2024 U.S. presidential election, with Kalshi estimating that roughly 70% of its users now come primarily to watch forecasts rather than place trades.actionnetwork+4<\/p>\n<p>Kalshi\u2019s advance has coincided with a broader institutional land\u2011grab around event trading. A recent crypto.news piece on Marex\u2019s Nvidia\u2011linked \u201cprediction market bond\u201d noted that Polymarket alone processed about $12 billion in volume in January 2026, generating over $11 million in fees as traders speculated on politics, commodities and crypto prices. Another crypto.news story argued that prediction markets are \u201cturning probability into the new asset class,\u201d as Intercontinental Exchange, operator of the New York Stock Exchange, weighs up to $2 billion in commitments to the sector.crypto+1<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, regulators are scrambling to define the perimeter: Kalshi emphasizes that all of its contracts sit under CFTC oversight, while a recent crypto.news analysis detailed how CFTC Chairman Michael Selig is pushing to replace ad\u2011hoc bans with a derivatives\u2011style rulebook that would onshore both crypto and prediction markets under federal supervision. Whether Fox eventually extends the Kalshi feed to Fox Sports \u2014 still framed as a \u201cmaybe later\u201d use case \u2014 may depend on how that regulatory bargain lands in politically sensitive markets like election betting and sports wagering.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summary Fox Corporation will stream Kalshi\u2019s real-time prediction data across its news and streaming platforms.
