Context
The headline probability now stands at 2.3%. Trading volume totals $3.1M. Resolution rules are clear: the market settles as ‘Yes’ only if definitive evidence—via official U.S. government pronouncement, law enforcement findings, court proceedings, or a consensus of credible journalism—confirms foul play in the Epstein case before the cutoff. A statement indicating foul play from a government body alone would suffice. The hard deadline of Dec 31, 2026 is the key event. Any qualifying release before then can trigger settlement; without it, the contract resolves to ‘No.’
FAQ
What counts as confirmation of foul play?
Definitive evidence—such as an official statement from a U.S. government agency, law enforcement body, or court—that foul play occurred in the Epstein incident qualifies. A consensus of credible media reporting can also serve as a resolution source.
What happens if no such evidence appears?
If by the deadline no qualifying evidence has been released, the market resolves to ‘No.’
Who determines what is credible?
The resolution source is official information from U.S. government entities or, failing that, a consensus of credible reporting, as judged by the market’s settlement process.
Does a leak or rumor count?
Only formal, definitive evidence or statements meeting the specified criteria trigger a ‘Yes’ resolution. Unconfirmed reports would not suffice.
