Description

This event group tracks whether Bitcoin's price moves up or down on April 6, 2026 at 5 PM ET. Kalshi uses CF Benchmarks' Bitcoin Real-Time Index (BRTI) averaged over 60 seconds before 5 PM EDT, while Polymarket uses Binance BTC/USDT 1-hour candle open/close prices. Both markets resolve based on price direction at the specified timestamp, but they reference different data sources and measurement methodologies.

PredictionHero - Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA)

Divergence Detected

Issue:

Kalshi's resolution logic contains a logical contradiction: all 80 conditions resolve to Yes across the entire price range (below 56750 to above 76249.99), leaving no outcome path for No resolution. Polymarket uses a separate, independent data source (Binance BTC/USDT) and measurement method (1-hour candle open/close comparison). The two markets measure fundamentally different things and cannot be treated as equivalent.

Hero Tip:

Kalshi's market structure appears broken - every possible BRTI value triggers a Yes resolution. This is a critical design flaw. Polymarket's binary Up/Down structure is logically sound but uses Binance data, not BRTI. If you are trading both, understand that Kalshi may not resolve as intended and Polymarket will move independently based on Binance candle data. Request clarification from Kalshi before committing capital.

Critical Divergence Points:

  • Kalshi: Uses CF Benchmarks Bitcoin Real-Time Index (BRTI) - 60-second simple average before 5 PM EDT April 6, 2026. All 80 price brackets (56750 and below through 76249.99 and above) resolve to Yes. No No resolution condition exists. Quote: 'If the simple average of the sixty seconds of CF Benchmarks' Bitcoin Real-Time Index (BRTI) before 5 PM EDT is [any price range] at 5 PM EDT on Apr 6, 2026, then the market resolves to Yes.'
  • Polymarket: Uses Binance BTC/USDT 1-hour candle beginning at 5 PM ET April 6, 2026. Resolves Up if close price >= open price, Down otherwise. Quote: 'This market will resolve to Up if the close price is greater than or equal to the open price for the BTC/USDT 1 hour candle that begins on the time and date specified in the title. Otherwise, this market will resolve to Down.'
