Lloyd Chan, an analyst at Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, stated in the report that a de-escalation of geopolitical risks could lead to significant risks in investment positions regarding the US dollar. The report notes that the strong momentum of the dollar continues; meanwhile, Gulf countries, including the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, continue to call for diplomatic solutions and warn against further escalation of tensions.

Polkadot has proposed a plan to set the minimum staking amount for validators at 10,000 $DOT, and the voting process is currently underway. The proposal includes optimizing Polkadot's issuance and expenditure structure through the Dynamic Allocation Pool (DAP) mechanism. Validators must meet the minimum staking requirement of 10,000 DOT by the end of May. Nominators will no longer face slashing risks and will receive a quick unbonding period of up to two days. Starting from mid-June, the protocol will implement budget partitioning, separately managing staking incentives for validators and rewards for nominators. It is expected that by the end of 2026, validators' operating costs will gradually be converted into fixed stablecoin payments, and the number of active validators will be adjusted based on actual demand.

According to data, legal pressure on the prediction market surged sharply last weekend, leading to a simultaneous expansion of crypto derivative product lines for institutions. The main developments are as follows: On May 22, James Comer (Republican, Kentucky), Chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee, officially sent investigative letters to Kalshi (a private company) and Polymarket (a private company), initiating a formal Congressional investigation into insider trading on prediction market platforms. The investigation focuses on two suspicious bets: one on the arrest of Venezuelan President Maduro, and the other on the outcome of the Iran war. Both trades had unusually large volumes occurring hours before the events were announced. According to media reports, the Wisconsin Attorney General recently named Robinhood Markets, Inc. (NASDAQ: $HOOD), along with Kalshi, Polymarket, and Crypto.com, as defendants, accusing them of offering unlicensed sports betting services in Wisconsin. This is an escalation of the prediction market scandal, which has already faced legal challenges in 13 states and is now expanding to Congressional oversight. Both Kalshi and Polymarket have expressed willingness to cooperate with the committee's investigation, affirming that their platforms have comprehensive anti-insider trading mechanisms. On May 23, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) officially approved Nasdaq, Inc.'s (NASDAQ: $NDAQ) listing proposal allowing the company to launch cash-settled Bitcoin index options on the Philadelphia Stock Exchange, without the need for physical Bitcoin delivery. This product will enable institutional investors to hedge risks or invest in Bitcoin price volatility through standardized options contracts, filling a market gap for cash-settled Bitcoin index derivatives on a regulated U.S. exchange. The approval timing coincides with strong Bitcoin volatility this week.

According to White House Chief Economic Advisor Kevin Hassett, in an interview with Fox News, once the United States reaches an agreement with Iran and energy prices fall, the U.S. Federal Reserve will have more room to cut interest rates. He pointed out that the White House expects energy prices to drop significantly after the deal is reached. Hassett stated, "We expect energy prices to fall rapidly after the agreement is made." He added, "When that happens, the U.S. Federal Reserve will have more room to take the right actions with lower interest rates." On the same day, Trump also declared on social media that negotiations with Tehran are "progressing in an orderly and constructive manner." $BTC $XAUT
