Dorky Goat

1. Sign up with your invite link: one username and a password (10+ characters).
2. Make a Kalshi API key:
   • Log in at https://kalshi.com (phone or computer browser).
   • Go to https://kalshi.com/account/profile (profile icon → Account Settings → Profile Settings).
   • API Keys → Create New API Key. Name it Dorky Goat. Keep the normal access.
   • Kalshi shows a Key ID and downloads a private key file (text that starts with -----BEGIN ... PRIVATE KEY-----; RSA or Ed25519 both work). Kalshi shows it only once, so keep it.
   • Kalshi's own guide: https://docs.kalshi.com/getting_started/api_keys.
3. Paste the Key ID and the private key (or upload the file). It tests itself: it only reads your balance.
4. Set $ per pick and your stop losses. It shows your minimum deposit.
5. Start in practice; switch to real money when you're ready. PAUSE anytime.

No SSN, EIN or bank info is ever needed. You can delete the key on Kalshi anytime to cut the bot off.
