Kalshi said it had ended Donald Trump Jr. 's role as a strategic adviser, noting that his venture firm 1789 Capital's investment in rival prediction-market platform Polymarket created an optics issue. The decision follows 1789 Capital's increased stake in Polymarket, which Kalshi said raised a conflict of interest.
The platform, which continues to operate under regulatory scrutiny, had appointed Trump Jr. as a strategic adviser in January 2025.
