About This Event
This market will resolve to "Yes" if X launches a stablecoin pegged to the US Dollar by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". The stablecoin must be actively transferrable and/or tradable, announcements alone will not qualify. The primary resolution source for this market will be information from X, however a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.

What the contract measures
The contract asks whether X will launch a USD stablecoin in 2026. It resolves "Yes" if X launches "a stablecoin pegged to the US Dollar by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET," and "No" otherwise [1]. The rules add that the stablecoin "must be actively transferrable and/or tradable, announcements alone will not qualify" [1]. The primary resolution source is "information from X, however a consensus of credible reporting will also be used" [1].
The provider lists an end time of 2027-01-01T05:00:00.000Z [1]. The rule text uses a clock time in ET, while the listed end time is in UTC. Readers should confirm how these two statements correspond before relying on the exact cutoff. The listed end time is a provider field, not an announced event date.
Reading the snapshot
The saved observation is timestamped 2026-10-13T21:00:06.387Z, and the source was retrieved at 2026-10-13T22:22:42.168Z [1]. These times describe when the data was captured, not the current market state. The market was recorded with status "active" [1].
The snapshot shows a Yes price of 0.08 and a No price of 0.92 [1]. These are recorded prices from one provider at one observation time. They are not executable quotes, and they should not be read as verified probabilities. The evidence does not include volume, order book depth, or trader counts, so it says nothing about liquidity or how many participants hold each view.
This sample covers one market from one provider event. Coverage data reports one total market, one included market, and no partial sample [1]. Because the event contains only this single contract in the saved data, there are no other outcomes to compare against it, and no cross-platform comparison is possible from this evidence.
What remains uncertain
The evidence does not explain why the prices are where they are. It also does not show any recent reporting on X, any announced launch timeline, or any historical accuracy of this type of market. The phrase "consensus of credible reporting" is not defined further in the supplied rules, so how it would be applied is unclear from this evidence.

Saved Oct 13, 2026 UTCOverview
This contract asks whether X will launch a stablecoin pegged to the US Dollar in 2026. Under the provider's rules, it resolves "Yes" if X launches such a stablecoin by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, and "No" otherwise [1]. A stablecoin is a type of cryptocurrency that aims to keep a stable value relative to a specified asset, such as a fiat currency, a commodity, or another cryptocurrency [2]. The contract's wording is specific about what counts. The stablecoin "must be actively transferrable and/or tradable, announcements alone will not qualify" [1]. A plan or statement about a dollar stablecoin therefore would not by itself settle the market as "Yes." The contract names X as the subject. X, formerly known as Twitter, is described as an American microblogging and social networking service owned by SpaceX's artificial intelligence subsidiary SpaceXAI [3]. The contract does not depend on that ownership structure. It depends on whether the stablecoin launches and can be used under the stated conditions. The provider's saved record lists the event as active and gives a listed end time of 2027-01-01T05:00:00.000Z [1]. That timestamp is part of the contract's rules. It is not an announced launch date or a statement that any event is scheduled.
Why It Matters
The contract measures a single, narrow event: whether X launches a USD-pegged stablecoin that is actively transferrable or tradable by the December 31, 2026 deadline in the rules [1]. Its outcome is binary, with "Yes" and "No" as the only stated results [1]. The primary resolution source is information from X. The rules also state that a consensus of credible reporting will be used [1]. This means that a launch confirmed by X, or by credible reporting consistent with it, would be the reference point for resolution, while announcements alone would not [1]. Because stablecoins are designed to hold a stable value but are "not necessarily stable" in practice, the contract's focus on a live, transferable or tradable token rather than on the peg itself is a useful distinction to keep in mind [2].
