Kalshi plans to seek CFTC approval for a West Texas Intermediate (WTI) perpetual futures contract that would trade 24 hours a day, Monday through Friday, without a fixed expiration date, becoming the first oil perpetual contract on a regulated U.S. exchange.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Kalshi’s attempt to launch a regulated WTI perpetual futures contract opens a new market segment where continuous oil price exposure is available without expiration. You must assess how this changes U.S. commodity trading access and consider new product design risks linked to regulatory compliance and price stability.
