Webull’s New Feature With Prediction Market Exchange Kalshi Lets Traders Bet on Bitcoin Hourly Moves

U.S. retail traders now have a new way to speculate on
short-term cryptocurrency moves,following a partnership between Webull and
Kalshi.

The online brokerage added hourly crypto prediction
contracts to its platform, allowing users to take simple positions on whether
Bitcoin or Ethereum will rise or fall within the hour.

Targeting Hourly Crypto Contracts

“Prediction markets are about transparency and
accessibility. They offer a dynamic way for users to participate in fast-paced
trading,” said Anthony Denier, Group President and U.S. CEO of Webull.

“Expanding access to cryptocurrency through
prediction markets lowers the barriers of entry to financial markets while
delivering precision tools for all experience levels.”

This new feature expands Webull’s
collaboration with Kalshi, the first CFTC-regulated prediction market exchange.
Through the integration, Webull customers can now access Kalshi’s
over/under-style crypto contracts directly from the platform.

Webull said the move reflects its goal of offering
accessible and risk-limited trading options. These hourly contracts allow users
to make directional bets on crypto markets without needing to understand
complex derivatives.

Unlike traditional trading instruments, prediction
markets avoid margin calls and hidden fees, making them attractive to those new
to the space. Webull is one of the first full-service broker-dealers to embrace
prediction market products, giving its user base of self-directed investors
more tools to engage with volatile crypto assets in a structured way.

Alternative Market Tools

The crypto contracts are currently available only to
Webull’s U.S. customers. Users can place trades with small amounts of capital,
allowing them to test strategies or experiment without the risks typical of
more advanced instruments.

By integrating Kalshi’s hourly markets, Webull
continues to broaden its product lineup, offering alternatives to traditional
equities and options. The move aligns with a wider industry trend of merging
regulated prediction tools with mainstream investment platforms to attract a
more diverse user base.

Webull and Kalshi Partnership

Early this year, Webull Financial expanded its investment platform
to include binary event contracts in collaboration with Kalshi, a CFTC-regulated
prediction market exchange, as the demand for alternative trading instruments
continues to grow.

“We have continually focused on equipping our customers with the best products and streamlined trading tools while evolving alongside their needs,” commented Anthony Denier, Group President and US CEO of Webull. “Offering prediction markets is a key step in fulfilling that commitment.”

During the unveiling, the companies mentioned that the first
part of the collaboration will feature short-term cash-settled event contracts,
with plans to extend it into a broader range of economic events. Webull also disclosed
plans to become a clearing member of Kalshi
