Kalshi prediction market platform is expanding into regulated perpetual futures trading for copper, a key industrial metal.<\/p>\n

The proposed COPPERPERP contract would track the spot price of copper in U.S. dollars per pound using a price feed from Pyth Network, a blockchain-based data oracle that aggregates pricing from various participants such as market makers and exchanges.<\/p>\n

In a filing with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission seeking to launch the product, Kalshi says<\/a> the contract is a cash-settled perpetual futures with no fixed expiration or delivery date.<\/p>\n

It relies on a periodic funding mechanism to keep the contract price tethered to the underlying reference price.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe COPPERPERP Contract is a perpetual futures contract on the spot price of copper, quoted in U.S. dollars per pound, referencing the Pyth Network XCU\/USD price feed,\u201d<\/em> the filing states.<\/p>\n

The contract would trade continuously on weekdays from 6:00 PM Eastern Time Sunday to 5:00 PM Eastern Time Friday. The contract would also adopt the federal spot-month position limit from the enumerated copper contract offered by CME Group\u2019s COMEX exchange, a marketplace that focuses primarily on trading metal futures and options.<\/p>\n

\u201cListing a perpetual on a CFTC-registered DCM brings this economically significant activity into a regulated environment featuring trade surveillance, know-your-customer verification, risk-based margin, central clearing, and disciplinary procedures consistent with the CEA,\u201d<\/em> the filing adds.<\/p>\n

Kalshi intends to list the contract on a continuous basis shortly after CFTC approval.<\/p>\n
