预测市场平台Kalshi的私人估值在短短几周内实现翻倍,仅本季度就有超过13亿美元的新增承诺资本注入。上周,这家初创公司在红杉资本(Sequoia)和CapitalG领投的一轮融资中,以110亿美元估值筹集了10亿美元;而就在10月,该公司才刚刚完成一轮D轮融资——当时估值为50亿美元,融资金额3亿美元。
显然,Kalshi正陷入与竞争对手Polymarket的融资竞赛中。有消息称,Polymarket正计划以120亿至150亿美元的估值寻求新一轮融资。
私人估值之所以能快速上调,可能是多重因素共同作用的结果。
首先是监管路径愈发清晰:Kalshi已是美国商品期货交易委员会(CFTC)监管下的交易所,而Polymarket也正通过持牌衍生品平台推进重返美国市场的进程。
此外,两家平台的交易量和未平仓合约(OI)等核心营收指标均实现强劲增长。对Polymarket而言,即将推出的POLY代币及空投计划更增添了一层投机性需求,而私募投资者显然愿意为这种需求买单。
