Expansion brings real-time, full-depth order book data for election and politics categories onto
the same machine-ready infrastructure already supporting Kalshi sports and crypto market data
for AI, and programmatic trading

NEW YORK, Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- DoubleZero Foundation (doublezero.xyz) announced today that Kalshi's Elections and Politics markets are now available through DoubleZero Edge, the low-latency market data delivery platform launched earlier this year. The launch expands Kalshi coverage on Edge beyond Sports event contracts and Crypto perpetual futures, bringing real-time order book data for Election and Politics categories to subscribers over DoubleZero's dedicated fiber network.

DoubleZero Edge provides complete market data delivered over the lowest latency path available, designed for AI and automated trading systems. An MCP server extends that to onboarding itself, whereby an agent can discover available feeds, request a connection, and troubleshoot it without a person handling each step by hand.

Prediction market activity around the 2026 U.S. midterm elections has already surpassed the entire 2024 congressional cycle, with more than $133 million traded on House and Senate races across major platforms as of mid-August. With the midterms on November 3rd,the expansion arrives as election-driven volume continues to climb and institutions increasingly use prediction markets as a source of real-time information about political and economic outcomes.

As professional traders and institutional investors participate in these markets, access to that information becomes a market data problem. Firms need complete, consistent data delivered quickly enough to analyze market moves, monitor liquidity, generate signals, and manage positions.

Until now, firms and individual traders seeking a machine-readable view of these markets have had to assemble book state themselves from API responses. DoubleZero Edge delivers that as a subscription. The election feed includes Level 1 data (Top of Book and Trades) and Level 2 Depth of Book data aggregated by price, covering Kalshi's election contracts and delivered over a single connection on DoubleZero's fiber network. Firms can plug the data directly into their existing models, trading systems, and analytics workflows rather than building and maintaining their own market data infrastructure.

"Election markets give institutions a real-time, tradable view into how expectations shift as political events unfold," said Andy Ross, Head of Institutional at Kalshi. "By making Kalshi's political market data easier to integrate into institutional workflows, DoubleZero Edge gives firms a valuable new tool to price risk, manage exposure and adjust positions as market expectations change."

Firms already using Edge can access Kalshi's election markets through the same connection and workflow they use for other markets.

"Traditional markets figured out a long time ago that if the data is late, the trade is dead. Prediction markets are starting to matter the same way, especially around elections," said Austin Federa, Co-Founder of DoubleZero. "Extending Edge to Kalshi's Election and Politics categories just means the firms already using it for Sports and Crypto perpetual futures don't have to reinvent the plumbing, and remains true whether the trader is a person or a model. AI-driven trading systems need the same fast, reliable data as anyone else, and a growing share of the flow on these markets is already automated."

Kalshi feeds, now including market order book data for both the election and politics categories, are available today through subscription to DoubleZero Edge. Traders seeking access can inquire at doublezero.xyz/dz-edge-kalshi.
