 Kalshi is not paying bettors the $54 million made on Khamenei death 

A popular predictions market app will not pay out the $54 million some of its users believed they were owed after correctly forecasting the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, according to a report.

Kalshi, which allows players to gamble on real-world events, offered customers favorable odds on Khamenei, 86, being “out as Supreme Leader” in response to the announcement of joint U.S.-Israeli airstrikes on Tehran in the early hours of Saturday morning.
