@JCE is leaving Asterisk and they are hiring a new person to fill the same position.

Resolves Yes if Asterisk announces a new managing editor with a first name starting with J.

Resolves No if Asterisk announces a new managing editor with a first name starting with any other letter.

If there is no new managing editor before the end of 2026, resolves N/A.

If they hire a person to replace Jake but the title of the role is slightly different, this market still resolves based on that person's name.

Insider trading is encouraged.

@Eliza should resolve NO

@bens Good thing it got filled before they re-hired Jake for the same role, which could have spelled disaster for this market.

@asteriskmag any updates on hiring yet?

Wait, I didn't realize you were on here @JCE ! And with some pretty hefty lifetime profit, too!

@bens probably won most of it off my cycling markets.

Claude estimates the base rate here at 6-8%

@PaperBoy Yeah but now everyone who has a J name who sees this market will know they can win a ton of mana if they apply and insider trade.
