Prediction market startup Kalshi gave Donald Trump Jr. about $300,000 in shares after he became a strategic adviser in early 2024, when the company was valued under $2 billion. The shares' value could rise significantly as Kalshi is now in talks to raise funds at a valuation of around $40 billion, potentially by Q3 2025. Kalshi allows betting on binary outcomes like weather or sports, and has benefited from a light regulatory approach under Trump-appointed officials. Trump Jr. also joined rival Polymarket's advisory board, linking him closely to the prediction market sector.
