Prediction-market platform Kalshi has permanently banned former Republican politician George Santos following an investigation into the alleged use of insider information in event-contract trading, Cointelegraph reported. The action is described as Kalshi’s first lifetime ban involving a politician. The platform also imposed a three-year suspension on Laurie Buckhout after a separate investigation into insider-information use. The cases highlight Kalshi’s enforcement response to trading activity connected to potentially nonpublic information. No further details about the specific event contracts or transactions were provided in the source material. The bans concern Kalshi’s platform rules and do not directly identify any impact on cryptocurrency markets or the digital assets listed on related market pages.
