The U.S. House of Representatives Launches Insider Trading Investigation into Kalshi and Polymarket
On May 22, CNBC reported that James Comer, Chairman of the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Reform, announced an insider trading investigation into prediction market platforms Kalshi and Polymarket. Comer has sent letters to the CEOs of both companies requesting documents related to identity verification, geographic restrictions, and monitoring protocols for unusual transactions.
Comer stated that internal records of the prediction market platforms are the only way to identify violators and assess whether the platforms are fulfilling their legal obligations. The investigation focuses on how the platforms prevent insider trading and the identity verification process for international accounts.
The announcement comes amid a string of prior suspicious incidents involving the two platforms. Previously, a U.S. soldier was arrested for using insider information to bet on a change in the Venezuelan government, netting around $400,000 in profits. The New York Times recently reported tha

Michael Saylor: Bitcoin Entering 'Spring' Warming Phase, Market Set for Rebound
On May 22, MicroStrategy founder Michael Saylor told CNBC during an interview that Bitcoin had dropped from a high of roughly $125,000 to around $60,000, where it found solid support, and is now entering a "spring" warm-up phase. Saylor noted the current price level has strong backing and anticipates the market will rebound from this point.
Meanwhile, he highlighted that as the digital credit market takes shape, additional Bitcoin supply from miners is being fully absorbed by the market. He stated: "Our company may purchase all bitcoins produced by miners from now through the year 2140."
Furthermore, Saylor cited advancement of the U.S. "CLARITY Act" and the SEC's "innovation exemption" policy for security tokenization as two major positives for the digital asset market.

Futu and Tiger Brokers Platform Affected Users' Funds at Risk of Being Returned, Potentially Involving $175 Billion
May 22: Futu Holdings’ Q4 2025 financial report shows that as of December 31, 2025, total client assets on its platform reached HK$1.23 trillion (roughly $158.4 billion).
In a March 16 report on Futu released by CICC International earlier this year, analysts at the bank noted the Greater China region accounts for more than 80% of Futu’s client assets.
Assuming Futu’s user funds remain nearly flat compared to last year’s third quarter, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC)’s strict probe into illegal cross-border business cases would result in only Futu being cleared out of such operations—with a 2-year rectification period for its existing business. This would put at least approximately $126.7 billion in user funds at risk.
For Tiger Securities, which reported $60.8 billion in assets under management (AUM) for Q4 2025, an estimated $48.6 billion in user funds could be cleared due to similar impacts.
Altogether, the total user funds expected to be cleared for bot
