Grayscale: Hyperliquid may evolve into an on-chain financial infrastructure giant, challenging the traditional derivatives market.
According to a recent report by Grayscale, a digital asset management company, the decentralized trading platform Hyperliquid is rapidly evolving from a crypto perpetual contract exchange into a blockchain financial infrastructure platform, potentially even challenging traditional derivatives trading and exchange systems and growing into a "financial services giant." The report shows that Hyperliquid achieved approximately $800 million in revenue in 2025, with an annual perpetual contract trading volume of approximately $2.9 trillion and open interest of approximately $7 billion, holding a significant share of the crypto derivatives market. Grayscale believes that the platform is no longer limited to crypto trading but is expanding into tokenized stocks, commodities, and prediction markets through its HIP-3 and HIP-4 systems, gradually building a 24/7 on-chain trading infrastructure. Another report by FalconX also points out that Hyperliquid is competing with traditional derivatives exchanges like CME Group and prediction market platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket, and is making progress in new markets such as pre-IPO. The report also emphasizes that regulation remains a key variable. Although Hyperliquid currently restricts access for US users, the sector may see greater growth potential in the future as the regulatory framework becomes clearer and institutions such as Coinbase, Robinhood, and Kraken explore perpetual contract products.

Wintermute ventures into prediction market making and expands into event contract liquidity.
According to Huoxun Finance, quantitative market maker Wintermute has announced its entry into the prediction market sector, providing two-way quote liquidity services to several mainstream event contract platforms. This marks the formal expansion of its trading infrastructure into the emerging market where crypto and traditional assets intersect. Currently, it continuously provides two-way quotes on multiple leading platforms, with the combined monthly trading volume of related prediction markets exceeding $20 billion this year. While the sector is growing rapidly, it is still in the early stages of liquidity development. Wintermute's annual trading volume exceeds $3.5 trillion, and this expansion further strengthens its cross-asset market-making capabilities. Its OTC trading head stated that the demand structure of prediction markets is similar to traditional asset classes, but liquidity is insufficient. Continuous two-way quotes are needed to improve price discovery efficiency and trading depth. Closer spreads and greater trading capacity will enhance the quality of market probability signals. Currently, institutions such as Jump Trading and Galaxy Digital have also entered the market, with platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi having a cumulative trading volume exceeding $150 billion. Wintermute's entry will drive the integration of prediction markets and crypto infrastructure. In terms of stablecoin settlement, on-chain clearing, and risk management systems, this type of market is gradually approaching the institutional development structure of derivatives.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that quantitative market maker Wintermute has announced its entry into the prediction market space, providing two-way quote liquidity services to several major event contract platforms. This marks the formal expansion of its trading infrastructure into the emerging market where crypto and traditional assets intersect. According to the company, it has been continuously providing two-way quotes on several "leading platforms," whose combined monthly trading volume this year has exceeded $20 billion, indicating that the sector is growing rapidly but is still in its early stages of liquidity development. Wintermute's annual trading volume exceeds $3.5 trillion, and this expansion further strengthens its cross-asset market-making capabilities. Jake Ostrovskis, the company's head of OTC trading, stated that prediction markets have a demand structure similar to traditional asset classes, but liquidity remains insufficient, requiring continuous two-way quotes to improve price discovery efficiency and trading depth. He pointed out that tighter spreads and greater trading capacity will enhance the quality of market probability signals. In the industry, institutions such as Jump Trading and Galaxy Digital have also entered this field, with some platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi having accumulated trading volumes exceeding $150 billion. Analysts believe that Wintermute's entry further promotes the integration of prediction markets with crypto infrastructure, particularly in stablecoin settlement, on-chain clearing, and risk management systems. This type of market is gradually approaching the institutionalized development structure of derivatives. (The Block)

A Google employee has been sued for allegedly profiting over $1.2 million through insider trading on Polymarket using internal search data.
According to Huoxun Finance, U.S. prosecutors this week filed insider trading charges against Michel Spanuolo, a 36-year-old Italian software engineer at Google. Using the alias "AlphaRaccoon," he allegedly misappropriated internal search trend data to place bets on the prediction market platform Polymarket before Google's 2025 annual search data was released, accumulating profits exceeding $1.2 million. The FBI identified him by tracking cryptocurrency payments. Google has suspended him, stating that his actions were a serious violation of company policy. Spanuolo is charged with violating the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act, wire fraud, and money laundering, and could face years in prison.

Bitcoin demand remains weak, with ETFs experiencing net outflows for nine consecutive days, totaling $2.8 billion.
According to Huoxun Finance, Bitcoin is currently stabilizing around $73,500, down about 10% from its high of $81,000 this month, underperforming other risk assets. The spot Bitcoin ETF has seen net outflows for nine consecutive trading days, setting a new record for the longest outflow, with a cumulative net outflow of approximately $2.8 billion, indicating weakening new buying. Year-to-date, Bitcoin has lagged behind popular sectors such as AI and semiconductors, and some institutions are reducing their Bitcoin exposure and allocating funds to stronger-performing assets. Glassnode believes that current ETF inflows and spot demand are insufficient to support a return of BTC above $78,000. CryptoQuant data shows that long-term holders' holdings have reached a record 15.8 million BTC, with this growth partly due to investors not trading for extended periods rather than new purchases. Polymarket data shows that the market consensus expects BTC to close in the $72,000 to $76,000 range by the end of this month. Altcoins are performing better relative to BTC; the altcoin index (excluding the top ten cryptocurrencies) has risen above its 50-week exponential moving average. If it maintains this level at the close this week, altcoins may still have about 20% upside potential relative to BTC.

Opinion: Strategy's preferred stock debt reaches $15 billion, facing pressure to sell BTC.
According to Huoxun Finance, Arca's Chief Investment Officer, Jeff Dorman, pointed out that Strategy's current preferred stock financing structure, amounting to approximately $15 billion, is out of control. This preferred stock requires annual dividend payments of about $1.5 billion, and maintaining this structure is becoming increasingly difficult given the volatility of Bitcoin prices. Strategy's financing model is based on the assumption that Bitcoin will continue to rise significantly. Previously, the company mitigated short-term default risks by issuing new shares, but the logic behind its repurchase of bonds maturing in 2029 is questionable. He believes Strategy may ultimately face two choices: selling Bitcoin to pay preferred stock dividends, or ceasing dividend payments, both of which will have a significant impact on the company and investors. Strategy CEO Phong Le stated in an interview with CNBC that the company may sell Bitcoin at some point in the future, but will continue to increase its overall BTC holdings and the number of BTC per share. Polymarket data shows that the market expects the probability of Strategy selling some of its BTC by the end of 2026 to have risen to approximately 90%. As of now, Strategy holds 843,738 BTC, with a total cost of approximately $63.87 billion and an average purchase price of approximately $75,700.

Polymarket's probability that "WTI crude oil will reach $100 in May 2026" has fallen to 1%, down 11% in the last 24 hours.
According to Odaily Seer, the probability of WTI crude oil reaching $100 in May 2026 on Polymarket has fallen to 1%, a 24-hour drop of 11%. The expectation of reopening the Strait of Hormuz is spreading, and international oil prices quickly fell after news broke that the US and Iran had reached a preliminary agreement to extend the ceasefire for 60 days. Brent crude oil prices dipped to around $91 per barrel, a cumulative drop of over 17% this month, potentially marking the largest monthly decline since 2020; meanwhile, WTI crude oil prices hovered around $87 per barrel. However, uncertainties remain regarding the details of the agreement, as Trump has not yet approved the relevant terms. Odaily Seer continues to monitor the prediction market, seeing changes before pricing.

Polymarket has added a new item: "Trump's $250 bill to be officially released this year."
Odaily Seer's monitoring shows that Polymarket has added a new prediction event: "Will the US federal government officially issue a $250 bill featuring Trump's portrait before December 31, 2026?" US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed on May 28 that, in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, the government has prepared a design for a $250 bill featuring President Trump's portrait. However, the actual progress of this plan is currently hampered by the stalled legislative process in Congress. According to HR 1761, which was proposed as early as February 2025, issuing this currency requires amending the Federal Reserve Act to authorize the new denomination and exempt it from the long-standing legal restriction prohibiting the printing of portraits of living persons on US dollars. Since the bill is currently stuck in the House Financial Services Committee and has not yet reached a full House vote or made progress in the Senate, the probability of completing legislation and printing and issuing the bill in the remainder of this year is low. Odaily Seer continues to monitor the prediction market, seeing changes before pricing.
