This event group tracks whether Solana (SOL) price moves up or down on March 10, 2026 at 5 PM ET. Kalshi uses a granular CF Benchmarks SOLUSD_RTI price-band approach (75 specific $1 price ranges), while Polymarket uses a simpler binary comparison of the Binance SOL/USDT 1-hour candle open versus close price.
Kalshi and Polymarket employ distinct data sources (CF Benchmarks vs. Binance), measurement methodologies (60-second average price band vs. 1-hour candle open/close comparison), and resolution triggers (absolute price level vs. directional movement). A single SOL price action on March 10 at 5 PM ET could resolve differently on each platform.
Hero Tip:
Treat these as independent markets with different risk profiles. Kalshi's 75 YES outcomes cover nearly all price levels, making NO resolution rare; Polymarket's binary outcome depends purely on whether price moved up or stayed flat. Price volatility within the 1-hour candle does not affect Polymarket, but CF Benchmarks' 60-second snapshot is sensitive to exact timing. Verify both sources in real-time before settlement.
Critical Divergence Points:
Kalshi: Resolves YES if CF Benchmarks SOLUSD_RTI 60-second simple average before 5 PM EDT falls into one of 75 predefined $1 price bands (e.g., $44–$44.9999, $45–$45.9999, ... $116–$116.9999), or is below $44, or above $116.9999. Effectively covers all prices >= $44 and below $44. Quote: 'simple average of the sixty seconds of CF Benchmarks' SOLUSD_RTI before 5 PM EDT.'
Polymarket: Resolves UP if Binance SOL/USDT 1-hour candle close price >= open price; resolves DOWN otherwise. Uses the 1H candle that begins at the specified time on March 10, 2026. Quote: 'close price is greater than or equal to the open price for the SOL/USDT 1 hour candle.'
