Polymarket’s contract on Lamine Yamal finishing second in the 2026 Ballon d'Or was priced at 13.0%, down 6.0 probability points, with $119K traded in the supplied Oct 26, 2026 · 4:09 PM ET snapshot.
According to PredictionBubbles, the contract appeared among declining sports markets on its movers board, rather than as the board’s lead move. The supplied material does not identify a news event behind the decline.
PredictionBubbles ranks changes over 24 hours using probability points, not relative percentage changes. Its source snapshot was read from the venues on 26 Oct 2026, 20:05 UTC, and the board refreshes every 15 minutes using prices from Polymarket and Kalshi.
The board covers 1,992 markets that remain live for longer than 14 days, according to PredictionBubbles. It excludes same-week fixtures and requires open markets to have a valid 24-hour price comparison, limiting distortions from contracts approaching settlement or lacking a day-old baseline.
Trading volume provides context but does not affect the movement ranking. The $119K figure therefore accompanies Yamal’s repricing without establishing how much liquidity was available or what caused traders to lower the contract’s price.
A Polymarket contract on Bitcoin dipping to $45,000 by December 31, 2026 was priced at 5.8%, up 0.9 percentage points, with $8.8M traded in the October 26, 2026 snapshot published at 4:09 PM ET.
The price puts that outcome at a low implied probability despite the increase. The supplied news scan identified no significant new platform headline in the preceding 30 minutes, leaving no fresh reported catalyst to connect to the move.
According to predictionbubbles.net, its crypto tracker reports market-implied probabilities, changes over the previous 24 hours and total traded volume. Its data updates every 15 minutes, while trading on the underlying venues continues between those refreshes.
These probabilities describe the likelihood assigned to a contract’s outcome, rather than Bitcoin’s current price. The $8.8M figure represents cumulative trading volume, not the amount traded during the probability increase.
The tracker lists 266 open crypto markets: 78 from Kalshi and 188 from Polymarket. According to predictionbubbles.net, its highest-volume crypto contract at the latest refresh concerned Bitcoin exceeding $200000 by Jan 1, 2027 at 11:59PM ET, with $13.4M traded on Kalshi.
That contract is not a direct counterpart to the $45,000 downside market. PredictionBubbles cautions that related questions across venues can have different wording and settlement rules, making those details important when comparing prices.
