Context
Trading volume stands at $2.5M. The resolution terms are strict: the market resolves to “Yes” only if national parliamentary or presidential elections are held between February 12 and December 31, 2025, 11:59 PM ET. Scheduling an election is not enough—the vote itself must occur. If authorities set an election date outside 2025, the market resolves to “No” immediately. Several formal conditions could shift the odds. Any official government communication that confirms or rules out a 2025 contest would move prices, as would credible media reports. The resolution deadline of Jan 1, 2027 creates a natural countdown. The primary resolution source is official information from Ukraine’s government, supplemented by a consensus of reliable reporting.
