This event group tracks whether Solana's price moves up or down during a specific 1-hour window on April 20, 2026 at 5 PM ET. Polymarket uses Binance SOL/USDT candle open/close comparison, while Kalshi uses CF Benchmarks' SOLUSD_RTI 60-second average. Both measure directional price movement but employ fundamentally different data sources and methodologies.
Polymarket and Kalshi use fundamentally incompatible resolution methodologies: Polymarket measures a binary price direction (open vs. close) on a single 1-hour candle from Binance SOL/USDT, while Kalshi offers 75 separate binary contracts each tied to specific price thresholds on CF Benchmarks SOLUSD_RTI. These are not the same market and cannot be reconciled.
Hero Tip:
Do not assume these markets are fungible. On Polymarket, you are betting on directional movement (Up or Down) in a single hour. On Kalshi, you are selecting from 75 discrete price-level contracts, each resolving independently. A Polymarket 'Up' outcome does not map to any specific Kalshi contract. Arbitrage is impossible; treat them as separate events.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Binary Up/Down resolution based on SOL/USDT 1-hour candle open vs. close price on Binance. Resolves UP if close >= open, DOWN otherwise. Single market, single outcome. Quote: 'This market will resolve to Up if the close price is greater than or equal to the open price for the SOL/USDT 1 hour candle that begins on the time and date specified in the title.'
Kalshi: 75 separate binary contracts, each tied to whether the 60-second average of CF Benchmarks SOLUSD_RTI before 5 PM EDT exceeds a specific threshold ($42.9999 through $116.9999). Each contract resolves YES or NO independently based on its own price level. Quote: 'If the simple average of the sixty seconds of CF Benchmarks' SOLUSD_RTI before 5 PM EDT is above [threshold] at 5 PM EDT on Apr 20, 2026, then the market resolves to Yes.'
