This market resolves based on whether BNB/USDT closes higher than or equal to its opening price during the 1-hour candle beginning at April 16, 5PM ET on Binance. A close price ≥ open price resolves to 'Up'; otherwise it resolves to 'Down'. The settlement uses only Binance's official BNB/USDT pair data, not other exchanges or trading pairs.
Polymarket and Kalshi measure fundamentally different events at the same timestamp. Polymarket resolves on Binance BNB/USDT 1H candle open vs. close comparison, while Kalshi resolves on whether CF Benchmarks BNBUSD_RTI falls into one of 40 specific price bands—creating incompatible settlement values and resolution criteria.
Hero Tip:
Do not assume these markets move together. Polymarket is a directional bet (Up/Down); Kalshi is a price-band lottery where almost every price point resolves YES. If BNB closes above open on Polymarket (Up wins), Kalshi may still resolve NO if the CF Benchmarks average falls in one of the few uncovered gaps ($515-519.99 excluded, $520-524.99 included, etc.). Arbitrage is blocked by source mismatch and incompatible payoff structures.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Binary Up/Down based on Binance BNB/USDT 1H candle: resolves UP if close >= open, DOWN otherwise. Single resolution source: Binance official price feed for the 1-hour candle beginning at 5 PM ET on April 16. Quote: 'The close C and open O displayed at the top of the graph for the relevant 1H candle will be used once the data for that candle is finalized.'
Kalshi: 40-outcome price-band resolution based on CF Benchmarks BNBUSD_RTI 60-second simple average before 5 PM EDT. Resolves YES if price falls into any of 40 bands ($515-519.99, $520-524.99, ... $700-704.99, or above $704.99 or below $515). Quote: 'If the simple average of the sixty seconds of CF Benchmarks BNBUSD_RTI before 5 PM EDT is [band], then the market resolves to Yes.' Only gaps are $555-559.99 (covered), $560-564.99 (covered), etc.—effectively all prices resolve YES except for unmapped micro-ranges.
