Briefings
Kalshi's tradable midterm election index settled at a price reflecting the actual election outcome rather than a pre-election prediction. The index combines 13 specific election events, and payouts are determined by a time-weighted index reading. This mechanism allows traders to profit from the final result, unlike standard options that pay based on a binary call or put. The article indicates the index settled to Pyth values, suggesting the market price converged with the realized outcome.
