This event group tracks whether Solana's price moves up or down during a specific 4-hour window on March 24, 2026 (4:00 PM–8:00 PM ET). Polymarket uses a simple price comparison at window start vs. end via Chainlink's SOL/USD feed, while Kalshi employs 73 separate binary contracts each tied to whether the 60-second average of CF Benchmarks' SOLUSD_RTI exceeds a specific threshold at 5:00 PM EDT.
Polymarket and Kalshi employ different data sources (Chainlink vs. CF Benchmarks), different settlement times (8:00 PM ET vs. 5:00 PM EDT), and different measurement methodologies (point-in-time price vs. 60-second rolling average). This creates settlement value mismatch and prevents unified resolution.
Hero Tip:
Treat these as two independent markets. Polymarket resolves on Chainlink's 8:00 PM SOL/USD price; Kalshi resolves on CF Benchmarks' 5:00 PM SOLUSD_RTI 60-second average. Price movements between 5:00 PM and 8:00 PM, or discrepancies between the two data sources, will cause divergent outcomes. Hedge accordingly.
Critical Divergence Points:
Polymarket: Binary Up/Down resolution based on whether SOL/USD price at 8:00 PM ET is greater than or equal to the price at 4:00 PM ET. Uses Chainlink SOL/USD data stream as the sole authoritative source. Key Quote: 'This market is about the price according to Chainlink data stream SOL/USD, not according to other sources or spot markets.'
Kalshi: 73 separate binary contracts, each resolving Yes if the simple 60-second average of CF Benchmarks' SOLUSD_RTI before 5:00 PM EDT exceeds a specific threshold (ranging from $47.99 to $121.99) at exactly 5:00 PM EDT on March 24, 2026. Uses CF Benchmarks as the data source and a rolling 60-second average methodology.
