Phantom Wallet Integrates Kalshi Prediction Markets for 20M Users: A New Era for Crypto Trading

In a significant move for the decentralized finance (DeFi) and Web3 space, the popular Phantom wallet has announced a partnership with Kalshi, a leading regulated prediction market platform. This integration will bring prediction markets directly to Phantom's vast user base of over 20 million. The collaboration aims to allow users to seamlessly speculate on real-world events, from politics to crypto asset prices like SOL and ETH, using their existing crypto holdings. This fusion of a major non-custodial wallet with event-based trading is seen as a major step towards mainstream adoption of crypto utilities, potentially driving new user engagement and liquidity into the Phantom and Solana ecosystems. Analysts highlight this as a bullish development for the SOL token, given Phantom's primary integration with the Solana blockchain, and for the broader prediction market niche within crypto.
