One bitcoin contract represents crypto in DeFi Rate’s top 50
In DeFi Rate's top 50 by category, sports and politics each account for 18 million dollars of 24-hour volume, while crypto accounts for 506,000 dollars across one market. The board snapshot was observed on October 31 between 9:37 AM and 1:34 PM ET.
DeFi Rate’s top-50 category breakdown shows crypto represented by a single market: bitcoin’s price on October 31 at 5pm EDT. That contract recorded 506,000 dollars in trading volume over 24 hours, according to DeFi Rate.
Sports and politics lead the comparison
Sports and politics each accounted for 18 million dollars in 24-hour volume within the top 50. Crypto’s total was 506,000 dollars, all attributable to that one bitcoin market.
The figures describe activity within the top-50 selection, rather than the entire prediction-market landscape. They show substantially more trading volume in sports and politics than in crypto within that selection.
A time-specific snapshot
The board snapshot was observed on October 31 between 9:37 AM and 1:34 PM ET. The supplied summary was published on Oct 31, 2026 · 1:45 PM ET, ahead of the bitcoin contract’s specified 5pm EDT price time.
The material provides no contract price, implied probability or bitcoin price threshold. Its evidence concerns trading volume and category representation, not traders’ expectations for bitcoin’s direction.
What it means for prediction markets
- Category activity was uneven: Sports and politics each registered 18 million dollars in 24-hour volume, compared with crypto’s 506,000 dollars in the top 50.
- Crypto representation was concentrated: A single bitcoin contract accounted for all crypto volume in the selection.
- Volume is not a directional signal: Without contract pricing or outcome details, the snapshot does not establish whether traders expected bitcoin to rise or fall.
- Timing limits the comparison: The figures reflect the October 31 observation window, not a final tally at 5pm EDT.
