This event group tracks whether Ethereum's price moves up or down on March 13, 2026 at 5 PM ET. Polymarket uses Binance ETH/USDT 1-hour candle open/close comparison, while Kalshi uses CF Benchmarks' Ethereum Real-Time Index (ERTI) with multiple price thresholds. Both measure directional price movement at the same timestamp but rely on fundamentally different data sources and methodologies.
Two distinct price indices and measurement windows create settlement value mismatch. Polymarket uses Binance ETH/USDT 1-hour candle open/close; Kalshi uses CF Benchmarks ERTI 60-second average across 50 price thresholds. Both occur at 5 PM ET on March 13, 2026, but the underlying data sources and granularity differ fundamentally.
Hero Tip:
Do not assume Polymarket UP and Kalshi YES at the same threshold are correlated. Binance spot prices and CF Benchmarks ERTI can diverge. Polymarket is a single binary outcome; Kalshi is a ladder of 50 independent price-level markets. Trade each on its own merits and monitor both indices separately on March 13.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Binary directional market. Resolves UP if Binance ETH/USDT 1-hour candle close price >= open price at 5 PM ET on March 13, 2026. DOWN otherwise. Single outcome, no thresholds. Source: Binance ETH/USDT pair only.
Kalshi: 50 separate price-level markets. Each resolves YES if CF Benchmarks ERTI 60-second simple average before 5 PM EDT exceeds a specific threshold (ranging 1049.99 to 3009.99). No single binary outcome; instead, a ladder of independent markets. Source: CF Benchmarks ERTI only.
