Kalshi partners with Haruko to fold perpetual futures into institutional risk tools
Kalshi has partnered with London-based digital asset technology provider Haruko to integrate its perpetual futures into Haruko's institutional risk and portfolio management platform. The deal, announced June 15-16, lets Haruko clients consolidate Kalshi perpetual futures positions alongside other multi-asset holdings in a single view. Coverage applies to Bitcoin perpetual futures, following the CFTC's approval of Kalshi's BTCPERP contract on May 29, 2026. No deal terms, timeline, or product launch date were disclosed. Haruko frames perpetual futures as a natural evolution from Kalshi's existing product set.
Kalshi must win institutional tooling parity before Robinhood's competing perpetual futures capture the retail crypto flow that currently drives most of Kalshi's volume. The Haruko integration gives Kalshi a consolidated portfolio view that offshore venues typically lack, tightening its grip on U.S. leveraged traders.
Kalshi's BTCPERP contract won CFTC approval on May 29, and the exchange is now building institutional plumbing around its first U.S. bitcoin perpetual futures through the Haruko integration, while volume on its HYPE perpetuals already topped $1 billion in their first week alongside altcoin expansion pressure from Robinhood.
