The prediction markets operator also reported approximately $275m on outcomes related to the halftime show, television advertisements and celebrity appearances. The first song to be performed by artist Bad Bunny witnessed nearly $113.5m in trading volume, representing the largest halftime show propositional wager by a wide margin. 

Speaking of propositional wagers, Kalshi’s markets for the offering generated nearly $37.1m in trading volume, including for bets such as multiple touchdowns, player over/unders and anytime touchdowns, which led all propositional wagers with $14.8m in trading volume. 

Over $52.2m in trades were processed on the Super Bowl LX Most Valuable Player (MVP) award market, with eventual winner Kenneth Walker III having traded at $0.19 to win $1 prior to kickoff.
