Perps: BTC, ETH and a new world for Worldcoin
BTC-USDC
Bitcoin has been trading in the mid-$60k range this week as spot ETF inflows recover. The next catalyst is the FOMC meeting on July 28–29, with markets currently pricing a hold at 3.50%–3.75%.
ETH-USDC
Ether pushed beyond $1,900 and has so far held there this week. Spot ETH ETFs saw back-to-back inflow weeks—$84.4 million and then $105 million—ending an eight-week outflow streak.
WLD-USDC
Worldcoin saw some lift after Grayscale filed an S-1 with the SEC for a spot Worldcoin ETF (ticker GWLD) that would list on Nasdaq. The filing doesn't yet disclose a management fee or launch date.

Predictions: LeBron's next stop, Tour de France runaway, and seeking CLARITY
RESOLVING OCT 31
The Polymarket odds put a return to Miami Heat for LeBron James at around 50%, with the Cleveland Cavaliers a close second near 28% and the Golden State Warriors near 11%. The 76ers are also in the mix at 10% as of Tuesday. The market defaults to the Lakers if no new team is announced by October 31.
RESOLVING JUL 26*
Tadej Pogačar enters the Tour’s final week still firmly in yellow, even after Remco Evenepoel’s stage 16 time-trial win trimmed his advantage. The GC picture was reshaped on stage 15, when Jonas Vingegaard crashed out with a broken collarbone, removing Pogačar’s closest long-term rival from the race. Pogačar was last priced at 97% to keep his lead; a win would tie him with the record five Tour titles. The Polymarket Tour champion market has traded almost $1M in volume so far.
* - Stage 21 finishes in Paris on July 26; Polymarket's official resolution window runs through August 9 to allow time for a confirmed result.
