Resolution criteria

This market resolves YES if Bitcoin's price is at or above $75,000 USD at 11:59 PM UTC on April 18, 2026. Resolution will be determined using the closing price from a major cryptocurrency exchange or price aggregator such as CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko, or Bloomberg Terminal. In case of conflicting data sources, the median price across the three sources will be used.

Background

As of March 18, 2026, Bitcoin is priced at $72,483.20, placing it approximately $2,500 below the $75,000 threshold. Bitcoin briefly reached the $76,000 level in mid-March before settling back into the mid-$70,000s, demonstrating the price volatility near this level. Bitcoin surged to new all-time highs above $125,000 in October 2025 but has since corrected by more than 30% from its peak. The April 18 resolution date falls just one month away, requiring only a modest 3.5% price increase from current levels to resolve YES.

Considerations

Bitcoin volatility is approximately 54% annualized, significantly higher than traditional assets, making price movements of several thousand dollars within a month commonplace. Bitcoin briefly surged above $75,000 on March 17 before quickly retreating, with analysts attributing the move largely to the closing of large bearish put positions and related market-maker hedging rather than strong new buying interest. Technical analysis suggests Bitcoin is likely to consolidate between $65,000 support and $73,300 resistance unless a decisive breakout occurs, with a sustained move above $73,300 potentially opening upside toward $80,700.
