Kalshi tightens blocks on underage trading, rejects calls to raise minimum age to 21
Prediction market platform Kalshi has introduced new measures to block underage trading, including requiring facial recognition at app launch and asking some users to submit selfies, Axios reported. Kalshi Chief Executive Tarek Mansour said underage trading is already banned but additional steps are being implemented. The move comes amid growing concern about youth gambling. Mansour opposes raising the minimum trading age to 21, keeping it at 18.
