Context
The probability sits at 4.5%. In the past day it moved 0.0 pts;
This market resolves to “Yes” if any wallet labeled as belonging to Satoshi Nakamoto on Arkham’s Intel Explorer shows an “Outflow” or “Swaps” transaction at any time during the observation period ending Jan 1, 2027. Otherwise, it resolves to “No”. The resolution source is Arkham’s Intel Explorer, with a fallback to a consensus of credible sources should Arkham become permanently unavailable. Any confirmed outflow or swap from a Satoshi-labeled wallet before the deadline would immediately send the probability toward certainty. Conversely, the absence of such activity as the window closes would reinforce the “No” side. The cutoff date of Jan 1, 2027 provides a hard deadline.
