Kalshi hits $5.3B volume on back-to-back days, beating October record

Prediction market Kalshi logged $5.33 billion in notional volume on Saturday, Nov. 7, and $5.36 billion on Sunday, Nov. 8, each beating its prior single-day record of $5.30 billion set Oct. 24. Parlay-style combo products accounted for roughly three-quarters of both record days. The back-to-back highs signal surging demand for regulated event contracts, a venue crypto traders increasingly watch for sentiment and hedging, though the combo-heavy mix raises questions about speculative leverage.
