4-bullet brief | narrative

Kalshi prices crypto market structure legislation becoming law by 2027 at 38%, below even odds despite regulatory momentum.
SEC rulemaking entering White House review is a procedural step consistent with progress, but the market stops well short of pricing passage as likely.
Senate Banking Committee is separately expected to take up the crypto market structure bill within weeks, yet the Kalshi contract is unmoved from sub-50%.
Resolves via White House confirmation of presidential signature on qualifying crypto market structure legislation by the 2027 deadline.
