3 prediction markets price this story:

• XRP — the market puts it at 2%, with $47 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 21 Jan 2029. The outcome is Yes if the U.S. Department of the Treasury announces it has completed buying XRP for a government reserve before January 21, 2029. Otherwise, the outcome is No. Readers often mistake any news about XRP adoption or other government actions for this specific Treasury purchase.
• Ripple (XRP) — the market puts it at 25%, with $509 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Ripple (XRP) shows a positive return at any point during 2026. The outcome depends on the asset's performance within that specific calendar year, not just its price relative to past events or other cryptocurrencies.
• $1.5000 - $1.7499 — the market puts it at 20%, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if the simple average of the CF Benchmarks XRPUSD_RTI price during the sixty seconds before midnight EST on January 1, 2027, falls between $1.5000 and $1.7499. It resolves to No if that average is outside this range. Readers often mistake the resolution date for the news event date or confuse the specific CF Benchmarks source with other price feeds.
