Kalshi's market structure is logically contradictory and unresolvable: all three outcome markets (Norway win, Tie, Switzerland win) are specified to resolve YES, making it impossible for exactly one outcome to occur. Polymarket uses standard binary logic where each outcome market resolves independently based on the match result, creating a fundamental incompatibility in settlement methodology.
Hero Tip:
Do not trade Kalshi's markets in this group — they contain a logical error that makes settlement impossible. Polymarket's three markets (Norway win, Switzerland win, draw) are standard and resolvable. If you hold Kalshi positions, escalate to the platform for clarification before the March 31, 2026 match.
Critical Divergence Points:
Kalshi: Outlier: Kalshi specifies that all three outcome markets resolve to YES regardless of the actual match result. The rules state 'If Norway wins... then the market resolves to Yes', 'If Tie wins... then the market resolves to Yes', and 'If Switzerland wins... then the market resolves to Yes', creating a logical impossibility where every outcome is marked YES simultaneously. This contradicts basic settlement principles.
Polymarket: Distinct stance: Polymarket uses standard binary resolution logic with three separate markets. The draw market resolves YES only if the match ends in a draw, otherwise NO. The Norway win market resolves YES only if Norway wins, otherwise NO. The Switzerland win market resolves YES only if Switzerland wins, otherwise NO. Exactly one of these three will resolve YES based on the actual match outcome. Resolution source is FIFA official statistics or credible reporting consensus within 2 hours of match conclusion.
