Kalshi 反驳 CFTC 试图推迟选举相关合同上市的行为，称其“毫无根据”

Kalshi 是一家受 CFTC 监管的交易所，允许用户根据未来事件的结果进行交易。

CFTC-regulated exchange Kalshi has slammed the Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s (CFTC) attempt to delay the listing of election-related contracts as “meritless.”

受美国商品期货交易委员会 (CFTC) 监管的交易所 Kalshi 猛烈抨击商品期货交易委员会 (CFTC) 推迟选举相关合约上市的尝试，称其“毫无根据”。

Kalshi, an exchange that enables users to trade on the outcomes of future events, has been locked in a legal dispute with the CFTC over its right to offer contracts based on U.S. election outcomes.

Kalshi 是一家让用户能够根据未来事件的结果进行交易的交易所，该交易所与 CFTC 就其根据美国选举结果提供合约的权利陷入了法律纠纷。

After a court ruled in favor of Kalshi over the CFTC’s earlier ban on such contracts, the regulator filed a motion for an emergency stay, reigniting the controversy.

在法院就商品期货交易委员会 (CFTC) 早些时候禁止此类合同做出有利于 Kalshi 的裁决后，监管机构提出了紧急中止动议，再次引发了争议。

In its response to the CFTC’s motion, Kalshi highlighted the time-sensitive nature of the matter, with the 2024 U.S. elections less than 60 days away.

在对 CFTC 动议的回应中，Kalshi 强调了此事的时间敏感性，距离 2024 年美国大选还有不到 60 天。

“Any further delay in listing these contracts will cause Kalshi irreparable harm. The 2024 U.S. elections will occur in less than 60 days,” Kalshi stated, adding that it aims to secure a final judgment by September 6, 2024.

“这些合同上市的任何进一步延迟都将给 Kalshi 造成不可挽回的伤害。 2024 年美国大选将在不到 60 天的时间内举行。”卡尔希表示，并补充说，其目标是在 2024 年 9 月 6 日之前做出最终判决。

“That delay—which the agency would assuredly try to parlay into another, then another, until it is too late—would be devastating for Kalshi, which has staked its future on this litigation and these markets,” Kalshi said.

卡尔希说：“这种拖延——该机构肯定会试图将其再推向另一次，然后再一次，直到为时已晚——这对卡尔希来说将是毁灭性的，因为卡尔希将自己的未来押在了这场诉讼和这些市场上。”

Kalshi's legal team argued that the regulator has no legitimate basis for two more weeks of delay before deciding whether to appeal.

卡尔希的法律团队辩称，监管机构在决定是否上诉之前再拖延两周没有合法依据。

According to the company, Kalshi and the public are entitled to immediate access to these contracts, which the CFTC has already unlawfully blocked for over a year.

据该公司称，Kalshi 和公众有权立即获取这些合同，而 CFTC 已非法阻止这些合同一年多了。

“The CFTC has not bothered to explain the firm’s supposed injury or provide any reason to state that Kalshi would pose an exceptional threat in the next two weeks,” Kalshi added.

“美国商品期货交易委员会没有费心解释该公司可能受到的伤害，也没有提供任何理由表明卡尔希将在未来两周内构成特殊威胁，”卡尔希补充道。

“This Court’s Order makes clear that the CFTC has already unlawfully banned Kalshi’s contracts for over a year since their June 2023 self-certification. The agency now seeks to inflict more,” Kalshi stated.

“本法院的命令明确表明，自 2023 年 6 月自我认证以来，CFTC 已非法禁止 Kalshi 的合同一年多。该机构现在寻求施加更多的影响，”卡尔希说。

“With elections less than 60 days away, every day that passes without these markets open causes serious injury to Kalshi,” the company stressed.

该公司强调：“距离选举还有不到 60 天的时间，这些市场不开放的每一天都会对卡尔希造成严重伤害。”
