Description
This event tracks whether Kanye West's YouTube views exceed certain thresholds during October 2026. The outcome depends on whether his global daily view count surpasses specified milestones at any point in that month, measured from a New York IP address.
Kalshi
The event evaluates multiple thresholds for Kanye West's global daily YouTube view counts throughout October 2026. Each threshold represents a specific numerical mark (ranging from above 4 million to above 8 million views) that, if surpassed at any point during the month, results in a 'Yes' resolution for the corresponding market. All markets utilize view counts reported from a New York IP address to ensure consistency, accessing data through YouTube Charts by searching for the artist and selecting 'Global' as the location. It is explicitly stated that YouTube has not endorsed these markets, and any references to YouTube are purely descriptive, with no implied affiliation or endorsement by YouTube.
