Resolution criteria
Resolves YES if the CoinDesk Bitcoin Price Index (XBX) prints a trade price at or above $140,000 at any time between 2025-01-01 00:00:00 UTC and 2025-12-31 23:59:59 UTC. Verify on: https://indices.coindesk.com/indices/bitcoin (XBX). (indices.coindesk.com)
“Prints” refers to the official XBX spot index value (not futures, not an exchange-specific price). No CPI/inflation adjustments.
If XBX is unavailable at the exact time of the claimed move (site outage or data interruption), fallback for verification is Coinbase BTC-USD historical prices: https://www.coinbase.com/price/bitcoin/historical-prices. If both conflict, XBX governs. (coinbase.com)
Asset tracked is BTC on the Bitcoin chain recognized by XBX. Market runs 24/7; times in UTC.
Otherwise resolves NO at 2025-12-31 23:59:59 UTC.
Background
Bitcoin made multiple new highs in 2025; XBX recorded an intraday high around $113,854 on July 10, 2025. Coinbase reported a separate exchange high above $123,000 on July 16, 2025. Threshold $140k would be above both. (rootdata.com, coinbase.com)
Considerations
Different feeds show different extremes; this market resolves solely on XBX, which can differ from single-exchange prints (e.g., Coinbase). (indices.coindesk.com, coinbase.com)
