May be done by a government or Kalshi itself. Ongoing cases are allowed, but some penalty or successful lawsuit must happen. The insider trading incident must have occured by the end of 2026.
Clarifications:
A private Kalshi investigation and banning a user counts for the purpose of this market. If someone leaks the release date of Claude 6 to an insider trader, and Anthropic fires them, that does not count.
Regulators include, but are not limited to the CFTC, SEC etc.
I will not trade in this market.
There will be no AI clarifications added to this market's description.

IIUC, this does yet not count for YES, because the only penalty reported against the student is being fired from his job, right? in practice, i would assume that kalshi probably also banned his account, and that would count for YES, but the article/tweet doesn't explicitly confirm that yet (but if kalshi says "we banned this guy's account" that would be a YES?). does that sound right?
@Ziddletwix Kalshi did not take any enforcement action, the NCAA did. Also, there was no actual insider trading occurring, from my understanding.
If it is revealed that the person acted on insider information, and Kalshi bans their account, then it should resolve YES.
I hadn't seen this:
Prediction market platform Kalshi today announced a major expansion of its market surveillance and enforcement framework. The company has formed an independent surveillance advisory committee and new trading surveillance partnerships with Solidus Labs and the Director of the Wharton Forensic Analytics Lab, Daniel Taylor. These initiatives further strengthen Kalshi’s market surveillance and compliance programs, solidifying its position as the leading federally regulated prediction market….
Being federally regulated means that Kalshi bans market manipulation, insider trading, has limits on the types of markets it lists, runs Know-Your-Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks on every user before they can trade, and publicly reports all trades to the CFTC daily. Kalshi also spent years building custom prediction market trade surveillance and enforcement systems that are similar to those used in the stock market.
You mean insider prediction trading on Kalshi specifically right? Not trading of Kalshi stock or other stocks?
@nikki Does it have to be a lawsuit or legal process? Would an internal investigation and firing an employee count?
