Super excited to release the study with @0xallyzach on the microstructure of Short-term Crypto Markets, where we cover an overview on the growth momentum & economics on both @Kalshi and @Polymarket, plus a deep dive into Polymarket’s user segments and 🕵🏻‍♂️ potential market manipulation: This is a "MEV" strategy that no one has called out lout til now (which allegedly long-existed in option trading) — Some traders appear to have figured out how to influence the closing price of Polymarket’s 5-minute BTC Up/Down markets while betting and profiting. 👇🧵

Excited to share a new paper with David Dai and @RuizheJia on prediction markets! Ruizhe wrote a great summary — see below👇
Ruizhe Jia@RuizheJia

Binance is arguably the world's largest crypto exchange. Feb 2026: Polymarket lists a small 5-minute Bitcoin contract. Since then, Binance order flow spikes in the final seconds before settlement; prices revert soon after. New paper with David Dai and Shihao Yu ( @ShihaoY ): Settlement Manipulation in Prediction Markets (papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…)🧵 The finding, up front: Traders push Bitcoin's price in the final seconds to decide the contract. That push makes the price less informative, yet Bitcoin's market more liquid. Market makers are largely insulated; ordinary traders lose $7.6M in two months.

@ankitchiplunkar @nickprince Interesting tweet, Ankit! What about on-chain price discovery through mempool, either by builders' bid updates in the private mempools (as you show in the graph) or by public orders added/updated in the public mempool? Then we are not constrained by the settlement speed.

@nickprince Price discovery does happen on-chain for tail-end tokens that have low liquidity off-chain. For others, price discovery happens off-chain. Speed of settlement is the main factor. With faster settlement more information is communicated about market participants’ beliefs.

How are prices updated on-chain? Most of the volume on-chain happens on AMMs where prices are updated every block by trades. In parallel prices are updated every microsecond on off-chain venues.

I have written a literature review about market fragmentation, with special focus on European equity markets. Below an example of how fragmented the markets have become. All comments welcome!

@matt_levine @Trent_mcbride I guess it is not surprising to see a balanced retail flow at Citadel: it is exactly what a market-maker should do. But it does not imply retail flows at Robinhood is balanced as a significant share of it is also routed to execution services and can be quite one-sided.

@Trent_mcbride yeah that's fair. one could imagine that one broker was long and one short or something, but it's weird.
