[Jump Trading to Exchange Liquidity Provision for Minority Stakes in Kalshi and Polymarket] According to a report by Jinse Finance, Jump Trading plans to provide liquidity to prediction market platforms in exchange for minority stakes in Kalshi Inc. and Polymarket. Sources familiar with the matter, who requested anonymity, stated that the agreement between Jump and Kalshi involves acquiring a fixed amount of equity in the company. Meanwhile, Jump's stake in Polymarket will grow over time, depending on the trading capacity Jump provides to support the platform's operations in the U.S. market. For Jump, these two deals represent a win, as the company will now hold stakes in two leading prediction market platforms. Based on the latest funding round valuations, Polymarket is valued at $9 billion, and Kalshi is valued at $11 billion. The sources noted that these market-making agreements are structured similarly to venture capital deals, where Jump provides resources in the form of trading in exchange for equity. Platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket rely on market makers (including some in-house market-making teams) who are willing to commit capital and take the opposite side of trades. The sources also revealed that in recent months, Jump has added more staff and financial resources and developed technology to support trading event contracts regulated by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Currently, Jump has over 20 employees engaged in prediction market trading. Headquartered in Chicago, Jump profits from buying and selling securities and derivatives, with its trading driven by cutting-edge artificial intelligence models. The company is a significant player in asset classes such as U.S. Treasury securities, futures, and cryptocurrencies.
