Kalshi rolls out CFTC-regulated $LINK perpetual contracts in U.S. first
Kalshi has launched perpetual swap contracts tied to Chainlink's $LINK, positioning the product as the first offering of its kind from a U.S. firm under Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) oversight. The debut creates a regulated, domestic venue for trading LINK price exposure, addressing the jurisdiction and compliance frictions that have typically come with offshore perpetual platforms. Kalshi said its federally supervised framework supports institutional-grade settlement for the oracle network's native token.
