This event tracks whether a significant earthquake will occur on a specific date, measured by the magnitude reported by a leading geological survey. It provides a way to assess the likelihood of seismic activity reaching certain strength thresholds during a defined 24-hour period. Outcomes depend on the highest recorded earthquake magnitude worldwide on that day.
All markets resolve based on whether the highest earthquake magnitude reported by the USGS worldwide on October 3, 2026, between midnight and 23:59:59 UTC, meets or exceeds the specified threshold. The magnitude used for resolution is the value displayed by USGS at expiration, with moment magnitude (Mw) taking precedence when available. If multiple earthquakes share the highest magnitude, all qualify. If USGS ComCat data is unavailable at expiration, settlement may be delayed under contract contingencies. Each market corresponds to a different magnitude threshold, ranging from 5.2 to 7.0, with higher thresholds representing more stringent conditions for resolution to 'Yes.'
