The Nov. 3 midterm elections will determine control of Congress for the final two years of U.S. President Donald Trump’s term, with all 435 House seats and 33 Senate seats on the ballot. The outcome could either preserve Republicans’ ability to advance Trump’s legislative agenda and confirm judicial and administration nominees, or give Democrats the power to block legislation, lead congressional investigations and constrain the White House.
“Prediction markets are becoming a source of real-time information about the world, but that information is only as useful as the speed at which you can act on it,” Austin Federa, co-founder of DoubleZero, said in emailed comments.
“If a debate, court ruling or breaking news event changes the market’s direction in seconds, a delayed snapshot is already stale. Putting Kalshi’s real-time order book data for election and politics categories on DoubleZero Edge turns those probabilities into machine-ready market data that professional traders and AI systems can readily consume and act on in real time,” he added.
The launch comes as trading tied to the Nov. 3 midterms accelerates.
