03:42 PM EDT, 06/10/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Prediction markets logged record volumes in May, with leader Kalshi growing its market share, though certain regulatory issues continue to be core to the industry's long-term sustainability, Macquarie said in a note e-mailed Wednesday.
Prediction market volumes amounted to about
$31.17 billion last month amid continued momentum, with market leader Kalshi boosting its implied volume market share to 57% from 50% in April, according to Macquarie.
"We note that it is still very early days for (DraftKings') predictions launch, and we expect its market share to consistently rise through the year," Chad Beynon, senior gaming, lodging and theatres analyst at Macquarie, said in a note to clients.
Recently, Rush Street Interactive (RSI) applied to become a regulated designated contract market, joining the likes of Kalshi and DraftK.
