Kalshi Suspends Users For Alleged Insider Trading

Kalshi said in a blog post that it temporarily banned two users in 2025—Artem Kaptur, a MrBeast video editor, and Kyle Langford, a former California gubernatorial candidate—for alleged insider trading and referred both cases to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Kaptur received a two-year ban and about $20,000 in penalties for August–September 2025 trades; Langford was banned five years and fined $2,246 for May 24, 2025 trades he promoted on social media.
