On May 26, the Spanish Ministry of Consumer Affairs initiated disciplinary proceedings against the prediction market platforms Polymarket and Kalshi, and requested internet service providers to block these platforms. The reason for this action is that both platforms operate without the licenses required by Spanish gambling law, and lack protective mechanisms for minors and self-excluded gamblers. The blocking measures will remain in effect during the case review period, which is expected to last three to four months.

On May 26, XWIN Research published that short positions in the U.S. stock market have recently surged to historic highs, but this does not necessarily indicate a comprehensive bearish outlook for the market. Data shows that the total leverage ratio of hedge funds has risen to approximately 293%, with both the short exposure of the S&P 500 and the Days-to-Cover metric reaching record levels. This reflects that institutional investors are maintaining large long positions while significantly increasing their hedging positions. The current market presents a structural state of 'high leverage, simultaneous expansion of long and short positions', where the apparent upward trend continues, but internal defensive sentiment is clearly rising. The core reason driving this phenomenon is the continued concentration of funds in AI-related super-weighted stocks. A large amount of capital is flowing into a few tech giants, while small and mid-cap stocks, as well as weaker sectors, are facing persistent short selling, leading to a strong index level but accumulating internal market vulnerabilities. This structure implies that once the AI trading fervor cools down, the market may experience more severe volatility and risk release. This change is also significant for Bitcoin. Historically, BTC has tended to fluctuate in sync with U.S. stocks during major risk events; for example, during the pandemic crash in 2020, Bitcoin fell alongside the S&P 500, failing to exhibit traditional safe-haven characteristics. However, since 2025, a clear divergence has begun to emerge: the S&P 500 remains relatively stable, while BTC's volatility has significantly increased. ETF inflows and active spot buying indicate that Bitcoin is increasingly driven by its own liquidity cycle, leverage structure, and institutional demand. The market is beginning to perceive Bitcoin as gradually evolving from a purely 'high-risk asset' to a hybrid asset that combines macro liquidity attributes with an independent market structure.
