The capital behind you
Two teams walk away funded.
Prizes are live trading balances, not cash. Win, and you trade a White Swan Predicts account against the markets you know best — with an industry-leading performance fee.
1st place
$3M
Kalshi trading balance
The winning team is allocated $3,000,000 in capital to trade across their nominated markets, with White Swan Predicts’ infrastructure and risk framework behind them.
2nd place
$1M
Kalshi trading balance
Runner-up receives $1,000,000 in capital on the same terms — a real seat to scale a proven edge.
What you get beyond the balance
Win and you’re not just handed capital, you get our full support:
Capital
Real, firm capital to trade — not a demo — sized to let a proven edge actually compound.
Correlation risk expertise
Our specialism — pricing and managing correlated exposures across markets and venues.
Risk management
Exceptional risk framework, tech, limits and monitoring that keep you in the game.
20 years of experience
Two decades of trading and execution experience in your corner from day one.
// Allocation size, profit split and drawdown terms are set in the funding agreement. Figures above are the headline balances for this edition.
What we’re looking for
Bring an edge in a market you actually know.
We’re most interested in teams with a demonstrable edge in one or more of these areas. Dominate a sport or bet type, or have a technical edge over 1000s of markets. There are many ways to win.
You can be a taker or maker, focus on singles or RFQs.
You can be a technical trader, a fundamental pricer, a tech stack, or a syndicate.

The rules
Indicative
General guidelines for this edition.
These are the working guidelines ahead of a formal agreement.
01
Who can enter
Small and mid-size trading teams and individuals. Bring the people who’ll actually execute.
02
Where you trade
An edge on Kalshi, or other — or in prop trading or RFQ flow.
03
What we assess
Repeatable and demonstrable edge, risk discipline and staking. Track record is weighted heavily; a live audit trail is best.
04

05
Selection
White Swan Predicts selects winners at its discretion; the decision is final. We may request calls or additional data during review.
06
