Quick take

  1. The SEC published a KalshiEX filing proposing security-futures listing standards on November 6.
  2. The filing concerns underlying securities for perpetual contracts and aims to shorten listing time for new public securities.
  3. Security futures may fall under both CFTC and SEC rules, and the filing is not blanket approval of all contracts.

NewsBTC reported that the Securities and Exchange Commission published a filing submitted by KalshiEX on November 6. The filing, numbered SR-KALSHIEX-2026-03 with release 34-106841, proposes a rule covering the listing standards for security futures.

According to the filing, the proposal addresses the underlying securities used for perpetual security futures on Kalshi. Its stated aim is to shorten the time needed to list newly public securities. Filed as an immediate effectiveness notice, the proposal invites public comment, and the window for those comments opens with publication in the Federal Register.

The analysis notes that security futures may fall under both CFTC and SEC rules, a point that bears on how such products are overseen. Perpetual contracts have no expiry date, so the funding mechanism matters, the analysis adds. It also cautions that the filing is not blanket approval of all contracts, meaning the proposal does not clear every product on Kalshi.

For readers following crypto derivatives, the filing shows how securities listing rules and perpetual-style products intersect. The comment process, tied to Federal Register publication, is the next step the filing describes.
