## Resource

Friday morning’s news dump from Kalshi led me and Pet Berisha of Sporting Crypto to turn this in an emergency podcast. The news: * Kalshi is going live in 140+ countries, sharing a liquidity pool with the United States. * Kalshi also announced it recently raised more than $300 million at a $5B valuation, led by Sequoia and a16z.
