Background Elon Musk has reported facing multiple assassination attempts, including two near Tesla's Gigafactory in Austin, Texas in recent months.

Resolution Criteria This market will resolve YES if there is a credible assassination attempt on Elon Musk before December 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET. A credible attempt must meet at least one of the following criteria:
Law enforcement confirms an assassination attempt
Criminal charges are filed related to an assassination attempt
Clear physical evidence of an attempt on Musk's life is publicly documented
Musk or his security team provides evidence of a genuine attempt that is corroborated by law enforcement or credible media sources
The market will resolve NO if no credible assassination attempt occurs by the resolution date.
Considerations
Social media threats or unsubstantiated claims without evidence will not count as assassination attempts
If Musk dies from natural causes or accidents unrelated to assassination attempts, the market resolves NO
In the event of Musk's death under suspicious circumstances, resolution will depend on official investigation findings regarding whether an assassination attempt occurred
