- Good news — you're already earning Season 2 PP! The final snapshot for Season 1 has been taken, and we're now calculating everyone's final PP balances. Starting from Season 2, each market's hourly PP allocation for LP is now split into two parts: - Resting order duration on the book (same as in Season 1) - Filled orders (new): determined by how much of a maker's orders are actually filled. A period with no fills, or only low-value fills, pays no filled order PP. And tomorrow, we'll finally be sharing more about what you've all been waiting for. Stay tuned. predict.fun

Polymarket gives Democrats a 92% chance of winning the House and 66% for the Senate ahead of the November 3 midterms, which open the lame-duck window for any second attempt at CLARITY. Volatility, Positioning and Leverage BVIV fell 4.8% from 40.76 to 38.82 by Tuesday’s close as BTC rallied, the weekly low. It then rose with the selloff, and closed higher on every day - but Friday - adding about 2% on Thursday and finishing Sunday at 41.13, up 0.9% on the week and 6.0% off the low. That close is within a tenth of the October 14 high, the highest daily close of the past month. Over the month, BVIV is up 10.8% from about 36.9. Aggregate futures open interest is $138.3B, against $140B last issue, down 1.2%. Coin-denominated BTC open interest has climbed from a low of 619K BTC on October 12 to 671K, still below its average for the year. Liquidations hit both sides. As BTC rallied to Wednesday’s high, $498.1M of shorts were liquidated from Monday to Wednesday. The selloff then flushed longs. Daily liquidations doubled to an average of $504.2M from Thursday to Saturday, $1.51B in total, with longs taking $1.23B of it, 82%. Saturday’s break below $80K was the largest day at $547.2M. BTC ETF Inflows Return as ETH Outflows Persist BTC and ETH ETFs took in $80.5M combined. BTC carried the week, and ETH lost money for a fourth straight week. BTC: +$301.2M. This week broke the outflow streak of the prior two weeks, but the net figure hides how volatile flows were. Monday to Wednesday brought $1.07B of inflows, then Thursday and Friday lost $774M. Thursday’s -$635.6M was the largest single-day outflow since June 25 (-$691.7M). IBIT drove the inflow days. It took in $665.2M on Monday, its largest day of 2026 and its biggest since October 7, 2025, and finished the week at +$565.7M. Every other fund combined lost $264.5M. For October to date, IBIT has drawn +$755.2M while the rest of the complex has lost $1,068.7M. Year-to-date flows sit at +$656.3M, down from +$1,021M on September 25. Our research on ETF flows found that IBIT’s flows predict price no better than the rest of the complex. On the 15 days IBIT took in big money while other funds sold - as it did Monday - BTC fell 0.86% on average over the next five days. Wednesday’s inflow landed on the week’s high and Thursday’s outflow on the same session as the selloff, which fits the broader finding that flows follow price. The level to watch is about $79.6K, 7% below October 6’s close of $85.5K, the highest close of the past 20 days. Once BTC closes 7% below its 20-day high, ETF flows have historically flipped from +$74M a day to -$72M within a week. Saturday’s $79,107 low broke through that line intraday, but BTC closed Sunday about 0.7% above it. From Monday’s close, the line drops to about $78.1K as early October’s highs leave the window. ETH: -$220.7M. This is the fourth consecutive outflow week. Since September 28, ETH ETFs have lost $1.22B, taking year-to-date flows from +$1,622M to +$400.5M. ETHA has not posted an inflow in 19 sessions: 15 outflow days, four flat, and -$1.04B in total. Across October, 14 of 17 sessions were outflows. Key Events for the Week Ahead Tuesday, October 27 US: FOMC convenes. Durable goods and Conference Board consumer confidence. Israel: Knesset election. Wednesday, October 28 US: FOMC decision, 2pm ET.
