Resolution Criteria

The Daegu mayoral election is scheduled to take place on June 3, 2026.

This market will resolve according to the candidate who wins this election.

Interim, temporary, or caretaker mayors will not count.

If the result of this election isn't known by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other".

This market will resolve based on the result of the election as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by the South Korean government, specifically the National Election Commission (https://www.nec.go.kr/).

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 35.0¢
  • NO trades near 60.0¢
  • Implied probability sits near 35.0%

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

Liquidity & Conviction Analysis

Medium liquidity conviction suggests the market currently has medium 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.
