Galaxy Digital launches institutional over-the-counter prediction market trading, completing the first $10 million Kalshi order

According to The Block, Galaxy Digital has launched an over-the-counter prediction market trading desk aimed at hedge funds and family offices, with the first transaction being a $10 million Clarity Act-related contract reached with the crypto hedge fund Arca on Kalshi.

As the primary market-making counterparty, Galaxy provides Arca with bilateral positioning and larger-scale liquidity. This service currently covers non-sports event contracts on Kalshi and Polymarket, encompassing markets such as economics, politics, and geopolitics, and plans to expand to more platforms. Galaxy can also hedge prediction market positions with stocks and commodity hedging portfolios, helping institutions manage multi-asset risk exposure around a single event in a unified manner.
