CNBC Teams Up With Prediction Market… But Will They Predict Their Own Success?

Oh, the drama! CNBC has joined forces with Kalshi, the prediction market that’s more reliable than your ex’s promises! 📺📈

Starting in 2026, CNBC will have real-time forecasts on “Squawk Box”-because nothing says “financial expertise” like predicting the future with a ticker that’s probably wrong. 🕒💸

Kalshi’s gonna have a CNBC-branded page-because nothing says “trustworthy” like a market that’s basically a casino with a degree. 🎲

Kalshi CEO Tarek Mansour says this is the “next evolution” of financial reporting-which, if you ask me, is just a fancy way of saying “we’re finally admitting we don’t know anything.” 🤯

CNBC president KC Sullivan says prediction markets are “important tools”-which is just code for “we’re desperate for new content.” 🎯

And just days later, Kalshi also partnered with CNN-because why have one media outlet when you can have two? 📺📺

Kalshi, founded in 2018, now has a $1 billion raise and a $11 billion valuation. Talk about a “next evolution”! 💸👶

Polymarket prediction market is also on the rise-because nothing says “success” like a blockchain-based prediction market. 🏋️♂️ blockchain!

Polymarket’s now the clearinghouse for DraftKings’ prediction bets-because who needs actual sports betting when you can predict the outcome? 🎯🎲

Polymarket partners with PrizePicks-because why not predict sports and entertainment while you’re at it? 🎮⚽

Polymarket becomes the official partner for UFC and boxing-because nothing says “excitement” like real-time forecasts during a fight. 🥊📈

Polymarket’s $10 billion valuation is just the beginning-soon, they’ll have a token. Because what’s a prediction market without a cryptocurrency? 🏦💸

Users are 99% sure Polymarket will launch in 2025-probably because they’re all in on the joke. 😂
