> Spokesperson Elisabeth Diana said the issue involved submissions for a few contracts, many of which were not live, and that Kalshi is addressing it.

The CFTC has warned Kalshi that enforcement charges could come over how the prediction market notified the agency about new products, putting its contract-submission process in focus.

The investigation reportedly concerns whether Kalshi properly notified the agency about products it was preparing.

The probe reportedly also touches on self-certification, which allows a CFTC-regulated exchange to start trading a contract without express agency approval. Under the process, the exchange certifies that the contract complies with agency rules, including restrictions on manipulation. A new contract can begin trading as early as the next day.

Diana said the issue involved submissions for a few contracts, many of which had not gone live, and called it procedural. “We are already addressing the issue,” Diana said.
