4-bullet brief | narrative

Polymarket puts 12% on the United States establishing a national Bitcoin reserve before 2027, resolves via UMA oracle.
Trump keeping the door open aligns with elevated odds relative to the Kalshi contract (CM-EVT-JQRXSG4ZX9) at just 5%, creating a cross-venue gap of 7 percentage points.
The Polymarket contract is nearly 2.5 times the Kalshi price; the gap likely reflects differing resolution criteria between the two venues.
Bitcoin trading near $77,000-$80,000 this week after a 23% surge provides a market-implied backdrop of rising crypto sentiment, yet the reserve contract remains well below 25%.
