The negative funding rate in the derivatives market, coupled with the rising prices of the leading cryptocurrency, sets the stage for a short squeeze. This was stated by analysts at K33.  According to the head of research at the company, Vetle Lunde, the funding for bitcoin futures has been negative for 46 consecutive days. A similar trend was observed near the bottom of the bear phase at the end of 2022.  Bitcoin price against the average daily annual funding rate. Source: K33.  "The compression of funding rates and the unusually persistent negative regime increase the chances that digital gold will break through the 68-day consolidation and set new highs," the expert stated. A similar view was shared by MN Trading founder Michaël van de Poppe. He believes that if bitcoin's price holds above $75,000, the next resistance zone to be tested will be $85,000-88,000.  The markets are preparing for a short squeeze on #Bitcoin.The markets have rallied to $75,000 and rejected there.

The funding rate… pic.twitter.com/1g3SAMFaOf— Michaël van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL) April 15, 2026 "On lower timeframes, the market is forming higher lows and highs — a sign of sustained interest in the asset. As long as the rate stays above $72,000, there is nothing to worry about," he shared.  Historical Context The combination of rising open interest and bitcoin price with negative funding rates has been observed near consolidation lows multiple times.  "The current positioning of crypto investors aligns with these conditions. Therefore, we have emphasized the importance of funding regimes in our reports over the past month and maintain a bullish outlook on the leading cryptocurrency," Lunde noted. According to K33, only two periods in history have been longer in terms of continuous negative 30-day funding rates: March-May 2020 (63 days) and June-August 2021 (49 days). At the time of writing, bitcoin is trading around $74,000. Over the past 24 hours, the asset's price has decreased by 1.9%.  Hourly chart of BTC/USDT on Binance.

Prediction markets are rapidly evolving, moving beyond traditional sports betting. By 2030, the combined turnover of such platforms could reach $1 trillion, reports CNBC, citing Bernstein analysts. The main drivers of growth, according to experts, include regulatory clarity, partnerships with major companies, and a structural advantage over traditional bookmakers in terms of available liquidity. “Federal-level regulatory acceptance (as opposed to traditional state-level regulation) expands the sector. Blockchain tokenization and integration with cryptocurrencies provide global liquidity, long-term events, and institutional investor participation,” noted Bernstein. In recent months, authorities in certain states have increased oversight of prediction platforms. However, representatives from the CFTC stated that their agency holds “exclusive jurisdiction” in this area and announced the development of unified federal rules. Sports as an Entry Point In 2025, trading volumes on prediction platforms tripled to $51 billion. Their popularity surged during the 2024 U.S. presidential elections. Subsequently, user focus shifted to cryptocurrencies, macroeconomics, and politics. Since the beginning of 2026, the turnover of sector leaders — Polymarket and Kalshi — has already surpassed $60 billion. Bernstein expects this figure to rise to $240 billion by December and to $1 trillion by 2030. While sports remain the dominant theme, accounting for 61% of total bets, analysts attribute this to restrictions on online bookmakers and fragmented regulation across different states. However, experts believe interest in such events will cool in the coming years. They described sports as merely an “entry point,” not the ultimate goal for the audience of such platforms. The sector's long-term prospects are linked to contracts on crypto assets, macroeconomic indicators, and politics. “The institutional market will grow around economic, business, and political contracts — investors need more direct and closed access to such phenomena. Additionally, corporations and insurance companies will want to hedge risks associated with specific situations,” explained Bernstein. Experts forecast the regular income (ARR) of prediction markets to grow from $400 million in 2025 to $2.5 billion in 2026. This will be aided by an influx of new users and optimization of monetization models. Polymarket has already abandoned zero commissions. The platform's ARR now stands at $420 million, analysts noted. They estimate that by the end of 2030, the sector's total profit will increase to $10.8 billion. Asymmetric Growth Potential Bernstein analysts also highlighted that Robinhood and Coinbase have become key distribution channels for prediction markets. Robinhood stands out in particular: within a year of launch, the broker's integrated platform based on Kalshi reached an ARR of about $350 million. “Asymmetric potential” for the company's shares is ensured by two factors: the anticipated expansion of the segment and “high confidence” in the recovery of the crypto industry. According to experts, weak first-quarter results are already factored into the current value of HOOD shares, which have fallen by about 50% since the end of 2025. Investor sentiment will improve as trading volumes recover in the coming months. “We expect revenue from prediction markets to grow from $150 million in 2025 to $586 million in 2026. This will account for 17% of transactional revenue and 10% of total profit in the current year, which will be rich in catalysts. The U.S. hosts the World Cup in the summer, and political activity will intensify in the second half of the year ahead of the midterm elections,” Bernstein concluded. Taxation of winnings on prediction markets has left experts puzzled.

Microsoft is testing the integration of features similar to OpenClaw into its Microsoft 365 Copilot service, the company told The Information. The new tools are aimed at corporate clients and incorporate more robust security measures compared to existing open-source software. OpenClaw is software that allows the creation of agents locally on a computer, capable of performing tasks on behalf of the user. Microsoft's new development complements the range of AI solutions announced by the corporation in recent months. In March, the firm announced the AI agent Cowork for performing complex tasks in Microsoft 365. It can interact with ecosystem applications like Outlook, Teams, Excel, PowerPoint, and SharePoint. The agent operates in a secure cloud environment, allowing the preservation of work context when switching devices. The tool was created in collaboration with Anthropic based on the Claude Cowork model. Unlike OpenClaw, Cowork does not operate locally on hardware. In February, Microsoft introduced Copilot Tasks—a cloud service that handles organizational tasks, from sorting emails to planning trips and meetings. It remains unknown whether Microsoft's new OpenClaw alternative will function locally. The company stated that the agent is ready to perform work at any time. The new product is expected to be unveiled at the Microsoft Build conference in June. Back in March, Microsoft announced two features for the Copilot Researcher tool—Critique and Council. These force OpenAI's GPT models and Anthropic's Claude to work simultaneously on a single task to enhance accuracy.
