3 prediction markets price this story:
- 75,000 to 79,999.99 — the market puts it at 11%, with $16k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if the simple average of CF Benchmarks' BRTI during the sixty seconds before 12 AM EST on January 1, 2027, falls between 75,000.00 and 79,999.99. Otherwise, the outcome is No. Readers often mistake the resolution date or source, but only the specific CF Benchmarks data at that exact time counts.
- Will the price of Bitcoin be less than $68,000 on September 24? — resolved “No” on 24 Sept 2026. The market resolves based on the final closing price of the BTC/USDT pair on Binance at 12:00 ET on September 24. For the "Yes" outcome, this specific price must be less than $68,000; otherwise, it resolves to "No." Readers often mistakenly check other exchanges or different trading pairs instead of the designated Binance BTC/USDT candle.
- Will Bitcoin dip to $68,000 September 21-27? — resolved “No” on 28 Sept 2026. The market resolves to "Yes" if the lowest price on a 1-minute Binance candle for BTC/USDT falls at or below $68,000 between 12:00 AM ET on September 21 and 11:59 PM ET on September 27. It resolves to "No" if that specific low price never reaches $68,000 during this window.
Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
