Resolution criteria
This market resolves to "YES" if there is a significant, widely reported military or geopolitical event involving Iran that triggers a consensus reaction of immediate alarm or escalation, as determined by the market creator based on objective news reporting. If no such event occurs by 11:59 PM ET on April 7, 2026, the market resolves to "NO".
"Woah" events are defined as (but not limited to):
A direct, large-scale military strike between Iran and a major power (e.g., USA, Israel).
A major, unexpected attack on critical infrastructure (e.g., oil production facilities, nuclear sites).
The initiation of a significant, new conventional war front.
Resolution will be based on reports from major, reputable news outlets such as Reuters (reuters.com), The Associated Press (apnews.com), or BBC News (bbc.com). Subjective interpretations that do not align with widespread credible reporting will not trigger a "YES" resolution.
