Pronóstico: Bitcoin above … on August 16?

Platform comparison

Market context

Bitcoin's price at noon ET on 16 August 2026 will determine this market's outcome, measured against the Binance BTC/USDT 1-minute candle close at that specific timestamp. The settlement window closes at 16:00 UTC that same day, leaving a four-hour buffer after the noon ET reading. Resolution depends entirely on Binance's recorded price data for that single minute candle, not spot prices from other exchanges or trading pairs.

The 100% implied probability reflects the mathematical certainty that Bitcoin will trade above any threshold set sufficiently below its anticipated price by that date. Historical precedent shows such markets typically resolve YES when the strike price sits materially below consensus price forecasts. Given Bitcoin's volatility and the two-year horizon until August 2026, the threshold price becomes the critical variable determining outcome likelihood. Markets with strike prices set near or above prevailing price forecasts have shown substantially lower YES probabilities, whilst those with conservative thresholds approach certainty.

Traders should monitor macroeconomic policy announcements, particularly US Federal Reserve decisions and inflation data releases, which have historically driven Bitcoin volatility in the months preceding settlement. Regulatory developments affecting cryptocurrency trading venues and custody standards could shift medium-term price trajectories. The specific noon ET timestamp introduces microstructure risk—intraday volatility and order flow patterns around that time window may create temporary deviations from broader price trends, though the 1-minute candle close provides a discrete, verifiable settlement point that Binance's historical data will confirm.

What are live sports odds on Polymarket?

What's the difference between match odds and outright odds?

Match odds cover a single game ("Bayern beats BVB"). Outright odds are long-term aggregates ("Bayern wins the league"). Outright markets have deeper liquidity; match markets have faster resolution.

Can I import form data and lineups?

This page shows the live Polymarket quote as an implied probability. Form data and lineups must be researched separately via sports data providers (e.g. Soccerway, ESPN, FBref) — we surface the market probability, not the sport analysis.
