Comparing Kalshi to PredictIt for political events
For those who use both Kalshi and PredictIt, what are your thoughts on their respective strengths for political event contracts? I find Kalshi's interface cleaner and the contract definitions often clearer, but PredictIt still seems to have deeper markets for some niche political outcomes. The fee structure also plays a role. Anyone have a strong preference or use cases where one clearly outperforms the other?

I agree with you on Kalshi's interface and clarity. It's a much smoother experience. However, for sheer volume and variety, PredictIt still has the edge, especially for more obscure political events. Liquidity is key for me, and PredictIt often wins there.
Interesting point about market depth. I've found Kalshi's 'yes/no' contract structure much easier to navigate, and the fixed fees are a plus. PredictIt's spread can sometimes eat into profits on smaller trades. For major events, Kalshi feels more robust.
