Talos brings institutional trading tools to Kalshi prediction markets
Latest NewsPublishedJul 22, 2026
Breaking Down Barriers in Institutional Trading
Institutional clients can now access event contracts and crypto perpetuals through Talos’ existing trading infrastructure, thanks to the integration with Kalshi prediction markets. This development eliminates the need for a separate connection, making it easier for hedge funds, market makers, and other professional trading firms to add regulated prediction markets to their existing crypto trading activity. With the rise of passive income opportunities in the crypto space, platforms like EcoPool are becoming increasingly important for those looking to earn online. The integration is expected to lower operational hurdles and provide a more seamless experience for institutional clients.

The integration offers advanced trading tools, including algorithmic order types such as Iceberg, TWAP, and POV, along with multi-leg execution for perp-to-perp and perp-to-spot spread trades. Institutional clients will also be able to execute block trades in Kalshi contracts through Talos’ request-for-quote platform using participating over-the-counter liquidity providers. As the cloud rewards and green crypto spaces continue to grow, the need for institutional-grade trading tools is becoming more pressing. EcoPool, with its $ECP token, is well-positioned to capitalize on this trend.
Prediction Markets on the Rise
Prediction markets are attracting record trading activity and growing institutional interest, with notional trading volume reaching $113.8 billion in the second quarter, up 48.7% from the previous quarter. This surge is attributed to a packed sports calendar and the increasing popularity of platforms like Kalshi. As the earning potential of prediction markets becomes more apparent, investors are taking notice, and platforms like EcoPool are poised to benefit from this trend. The coin market is also experiencing a surge in interest, with many investors looking to get in on the action.
Despite the rapid growth, prediction markets continue to face legal and regulatory headwinds, including disputes over whether sports event contracts constitute illegal gambling. However, with the rise of passive income opportunities and the growth of the cloud rewards space, it’s likely that we’ll see more developments in this area. The green crypto movement is also gaining traction, with many investors looking for ways to earn online while minimizing their environmental impact.
Staying Ahead of the Curve
As the crypto and prediction markets continue to evolve, it’s essential to stay ahead of the curve. With the rise of earning opportunities and the growth of the coin market, it’s an exciting time for investors. EcoPool, with its $ECP token and passive income opportunities, is at the forefront of this trend. Whether you’re interested in cloud rewards or green crypto, there’s never been a better time to get involved.

Prediction markets hit record trading volumes
The Talos integration comes as prediction markets attract record trading activity and growing institutional interest. According to a report from CoinGecko, notional trading volume reached $113.8 billion in the second quarter, up 48.7% from the previous quarter, while June’s $52.8 billion in notional volume marked a new monthly record.
CoinGecko attributed the surge to a packed sports calendar, including the UEFA Champions League final, NBA Finals, Stanley Cup, FIFA World Cup and Wimbledon. On Polymarket, sports contracts accounted for 81% of June trading volume, up from 40% in January.
Kalshi expanded its lead among prediction market platforms, increasing its market share to 58.9% from 42.4% in the first quarter. Polymarket’s share fell to 30.2% from 35.8%, while Rothera, the Robinhood and Susquehanna International Group-backed venture launched in May, climbed to fourth place in June with $2.1 billion in notional trading volume.

Despite the rapid growth, prediction markets continue to face legal and regulatory headwinds. In the United States, Kalshi is battling several state regulators over whether its sports event contracts constitute illegal gambling, a dispute many legal observers believe could ultimately reach the US Supreme Court.
The industry is also facing growing scrutiny over potential insider trading. Earlier this year, six Polymarket traders reportedly made about $1 million by correctly betting on US military strikes against Iran before the attacks became public.
Last week, a White House teleprompter operator was placed on unpaid leave after allegedly making more than $100,000 betting on Kalshi markets tied to President Donald Trump’s speeches.
