Current Market Pricing

Prediction markets currently imply a live probability of approximately 28.0%.

Market Structure

Markets with tighter spreads and higher liquidity generally indicate stronger trader participation and more efficient price discovery.

Resolution Criteria

This market will resolve to “Yes” if Iran and the United states agree to a permanent peace deal by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”.

A permanent peace deal refers to any agreement which explicitly indicates that military hostilities between the United States and Iran have ended or will permanently cease, or uses equivalent language clearly signaling a lasting end to military hostilities between the United States and Iran. Agreements that are explicitly temporary or which do not include a definitive agreement to end military hostilities between the US and Iran on a lasting basis (e.g. a temporary extension of the two-week ceasefire agreement announced on April 7, 2026), will not qualify.

A qualifying agreement will be considered to have been established if either of the following conditions are met:

• The United States and Iran each sign or formally adopt a written agreement (e.g. a treaty or multi-point agreement) which meets the above criteria.

• Both the governments of the United States and Iran provide clear public confirmation that a qualifying agreement has been definitively established. Negotiations, statements of progress, or other statements which do not constitute a definitive announcement that a qualifying agreement has been reached will not count.

The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the governments of the United States and Iran; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.

Market Interpretation

Prediction markets function as real-time consensus engines.

Traders continuously buy and sell outcome shares based on:

• breaking news
• macro developments
• public narratives
• institutional positioning
• probability reassessments

As a result, market pricing reflects aggregate trader expectations rather than static forecasts or polling systems.

At the current pricing structure:

• YES trades near 28.0¢
• NO trades near 71.0¢
• Implied probability sits near 28.0%

These probabilities may shift rapidly as new information enters the market.

Liquidity & Conviction Analysis

High liquidity conviction suggests the market currently has high participation depth.

Higher liquidity environments typically produce:

• tighter spreads
• faster price discovery
• stronger informational efficiency
• lower pricing instability

Lower liquidity environments can produce sharper volatility swings and less reliable consensus pricing.

Why Prediction Markets Matter

Prediction markets aggregate trader beliefs into continuously updating probabilities.

Unlike static polling systems, these markets react in real time to:

• political developments
• macroeconomic events
• institutional sentiment
• narrative shifts
• market-moving news
• crowd positioning

This makes them useful as live probabilistic intelligence systems rather than simple betting platforms.
