This market resolves to YES if Emma Watson makes a public social media post (on X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc.) that explicitly acknowledges J.K. Rowling's contribution to her career by December 31, 2025. The post must be from Watson's verified account and must mention Rowling by name in a positive context related to her career.

Recent context: In September 2025, Watson stated on Jay Shetty's podcast that she still "treasures Jo and the person that I had personal experiences with" despite their differences on transgender issues. Rowling responded with criticism, calling Watson "ignorant" and revealing a brief note Watson had sent her previously.

Resolution criteria: The market resolves to YES if Emma Watson makes a public social media post acknowledging Rowling's contribution to her career in a positive way. The post must be from Watson's verified account and must mention Rowling by name. The market resolves to NO if no such post is made by the close date.
