Description

This event group tracks whether Bitcoin's price moves up or down at a specific moment on March 6, 2026 at 5 PM ET. Polymarket uses Binance BTC/USDT 1-hour candle open/close comparison, while Kalshi uses CF Benchmarks' Bitcoin Real-Time Index (BRTI) 60-second average. Both platforms aim to capture directional price movement at the same timestamp but employ fundamentally different data sources and measurement methodologies.

PredictionHero - Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA)

Divergence Detected

Issue:

Polymarket and Kalshi employ incompatible price sources (Binance BTC/USDT spot candle vs. CF Benchmarks BRTI index), incompatible time windows (1-hour candle open/close vs. 60-second pre-5PM average), and incompatible resolution logic (binary up/down vs. 50 separate price thresholds). This creates high risk of conflicting resolutions and suggests potential data integrity or market configuration failure on Kalshi.

Hero Tip:

Do not treat these as fungible markets. Polymarket resolves based on Binance spot price candle mechanics; Kalshi resolves based on a third-party index with 50 separate threshold conditions. Confirm Kalshi's actual market structure (is this truly one market or 50 separate markets?) and verify CF Benchmarks BRTI data availability before settlement. Consider the possibility of Kalshi market misconfiguration.

Critical Divergence Points:

  • Polymarket: Binary directional market. Resolves UP if BTC/USDT 1-hour candle close price >= open price on Binance at 5 PM ET March 6. Resolves DOWN otherwise. Single, unambiguous outcome. Source: Binance BTC/USDT pair, 1H candle finalized data.
  • Kalshi: 50 separate price-threshold conditions, each resolving YES if CF Benchmarks BRTI 60-second average (measured in the 60 seconds before 5 PM EST) exceeds a specific threshold (ranging from 54,749.99 to 79,249.99). No explicit NO outcome or binary structure provided. Source: CF Benchmarks Bitcoin Real-Time Index (BRTI), not Binance.
