War as defined by the Uppsala Conflict Data Program is "A state-based conflict or dyad which reaches at least 1000 battle-related deaths in a specific calendar year"

This will resolve YES for any war in which China and the USA are directly and kinetically involved on opposing sides.

"Wins in 2024" refers to the 2024 presidential election. If Trump loses, this market will be refunded.

What does “2025” term mean? I assume it means by the end of 2029? Probably worth clarifying that.

@mattsly adjusted closing date

@Symmetry u should edit the title too btw

opened a Ṁ2,000 YES at 5% order

@NicoDelon free mana for you 😉

@JoshuaWilkes My balance is low otherwise yeah I’d bet it much lower.

One of the most mispriced markets I’ve seen in a while. My probability is <5%, perhaps even close to 1%.

@NicoDelon you will get good odds in the "Will the US defend Taiwan" genre of markets

@JoshuaWilkes They’re all conditional markets. Since I think it’s unlikely PRC will invade Taiwan I don’t want to lock my money there. I do think it’s quite likely Trump wins though. And all the evidence points to a Trump administration being overwhelmingly reluctant to start a war, especially with China.

@NicoDelon I think there are some markets which give all options rather than being conditional. I will look later if I have time

@NicoDelon Trump getting elected would ensure that the US does not defend Taiwan.

@FoxKHTML That’s possible. And points toward no war between China and US.

Don’t make me tap the sign.

bought Ṁ200 of NO

Just a reminder that Trump is one of the only US presidents to not have started any war during his term.
