No, this is not a joke.

Kalshi is reportedly moving to introduce prediction markets tied to college admissions statistics, including application numbers and acceptance rates at selective universities like Stanford and Duke.

I'm not convinced this is a good idea, but I'm curious to hear what you think.

👇 Let me know in the comments.

Kalshi is more accurate than all other platforms bc it’s real people placing real bets. In fact, ho-hum predictions like weather is more accurate on Kalshi than the weather channel. They’ve got guardrails against insiders trading on certain sectors, so it’s likely admissions officers would be precluded from trading on college admissions predictions. I think this is v interesting for admissions teams and future yield planning and will be interesting to compare against actual. Hi Thomas! Nice to see you sharing your expertise here!

That’s kind of the whole point though. Insider information helps make prediction markets more accurate, and the whole premise is that the ones with the most accurate information would place strong bets
