Background

YouTube regularly updates its platform with new features and improvements. Some features mentioned are already in development or partially implemented, while others are speculative. YouTube has recently announced several AI-driven improvements and creator-focused updates at their Made on YouTube event.

Resolution Criteria

Each feature will be evaluated independently and will resolve as follows:

• YES if YouTube officially announces or implements the feature within 2025

• NO if YouTube explicitly states they won't implement the feature in 2025, or if the feature is not implemented by December 31, 2025

• N/A if YouTube ceases to exist as a platform (only 1% chance currently) or if YouTube announce the feature but after few days/months YouTube announce that this feature is no longer available.

A feature counts as "added" when it is:

• Officially announced by YouTube through their blog, social media, or press releases

• Made available to users (either in beta or full release)

• Substantially different from existing features (minor updates to existing features don't count)

Considerations

• Features must be distinctly new or represent major overhauls of existing systems to count as "added"

• Regional rollouts count as implementation, even if not available worldwide

• Beta or limited testing phases count as implementation if officially announced

• Features must be implemented on the main YouTube platform (not YouTube Music, YouTube TV, or other separate products)

• (This is optional) You can share the website showing that this feature has been released or announce.

• Update 2025-11-01 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Updated Market Closing Date:

  • The market will now close on December 31, 2025 instead of the previously stated date.
