This market tracks whether the simple average of sixty seconds of the CF Benchmarks' Bitcoin Real-Time Index (BRTI) will be above 69499.99 at 5 PM EDT on October 23, 2026. Currently, the probability of this outcome occurring on Kalshi is 99.0%. The resolution source for this market is CF Benchmarks' Bitcoin Real-Time Index (BRTI). Traders should closely watch the price of Bitcoin leading up to October 23, 2026, as the market will resolve based on the BRTI average at 5 PM EDT on that date.
All markets share a common resolution methodology centered on the Bitcoin Real-Time Index (BRTI) published by CF Benchmarks. For each market, the outcome depends on whether the simple average of the sixty seconds of BRTI price data immediately preceding 5 PM EDT on October 23, 2026, exceeds a specified threshold. The exact threshold varies per market, incrementing in $500 or $1,000 steps from $69,500 up to $94,000. At the minute before expiration, exactly sixty price readings are collected from the BRTI. The official closing price is the arithmetic mean of these sixty values. If this average exceeds the market's defined threshold, the market resolves to 'Yes'; otherwise, it resolves to 'No'. All markets use identical data collection and calculation procedures, differing only in their respective price thresholds.
On Kalshi, this market is priced using a continuous double auction, meaning traders can buy and sell contracts representing different Bitcoin price outcomes. The prices of these contracts dynamically adjust based on supply and demand, reflecting the evolving beliefs of market participants. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. As more traders participate, the market price converges towards a consensus view of the most likely Bitcoin price on October 23, 2026. The current volume of $4,115,528 indicates active trading and a degree of confidence in the market’s price discovery process.
This market resolves around Oct 23, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. The resolution will be based on the Bitcoin price at 5:00 PM EDT on October 23, 2026, as reported by a widely recognized and trusted financial data source. Traders will then be paid out based on whether their predictions aligned with the actual Bitcoin price at that specific time. The market’s outcome is determined by objective data, ensuring a transparent and verifiable resolution process.
Several signals or events could significantly move this market between now and its resolution. Major regulatory announcements regarding cryptocurrency, particularly in the United States or other key economies, could have a substantial impact. Unexpected macroeconomic events, such as shifts in interest rate policies or significant inflation changes, could also influence investor sentiment towards Bitcoin. Finally, technological developments, like breakthroughs in blockchain scalability or security, or conversely, major security breaches, could all contribute to price fluctuations and shift the odds in this market.
