Resolution Criteria
This market resolves YES if Bluesky publicly reports, or a credible third-party source confirms, that the platform has exceeded 50 million monthly active users (MAU) at any point before December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET.
Acceptable sources for resolution:
Official Bluesky blog posts, press releases, or SEC filings
Statements from Bluesky CEO Jay Graber or official Bluesky accounts
Reporting from major outlets (NYT, WSJ, Bloomberg, The Verge, TechCrunch) citing internal data or people familiar with the matter
App analytics firms (Sensor Tower, Apptopia, data.ai) if their methodology is clearly stated and they have a track record of reasonable accuracy
The market resolves NO if none of the above sources report 50M+ MAU by the close date.
Edge Cases
If Bluesky merges with another platform or is acquired, users of the combined entity count if the Bluesky app/brand persists
"Monthly active users" means users who logged in and took at least one action (post, like, follow, etc.) within a 30-day period—standard industry definition
If conflicting sources report different numbers, I will use the most credible source or wait for clarification before resolving
Bots and spam accounts should be excluded per Bluesky's own methodology; if a source reports "users" without specifying MAU or excluding bots, I will seek clarification before resolving
