About This Event
This market will resolve to "Up" if the time-weighted average price (TWAP) of ZCash, generated by Chainlink, of the time range specified in the title is greater than or equal to the price at the beginning of that range. Otherwise, it will resolve to "Down". The resolution source for this market is information from Chainlink, specifically the ZEC/USD TWAP data stream available at https://data.chain.link/streams/zec-usd-twap-60s-streams. Please note that this market is about the price according to the TWAP Chainlink data stream for the asset pair ZEC/USD, not according to any other sources or spot markets.

What the contract measures
The contract is titled "ZCash Up or Down - October 27, 9:15AM-9:20AM ET" [1]. According to the saved rules, it "will resolve to "Up" if the time-weighted average price (TWAP) of ZCash, generated by Chainlink, of the time range specified in the title is greater than or equal to the price at the beginning of that range. Otherwise, it will resolve to "Down"" [1]. The stated resolution source is the ZEC/USD TWAP data stream from Chainlink, and the rules say the market concerns "the price according to the TWAP Chainlink data stream for the asset pair ZEC/USD, not according to any other sources or spot markets" [1].
The listed end time is 2026-10-27T13:20:00.000Z [1]. Readers comparing this contract with a similarly titled market on another platform should check both the wording and the listed close time, because a different reference source or window would make the outcomes non-equivalent.
Reading the snapshot
The saved snapshot shows two outcomes, Up at 0.5 and Down at 0.5 [1]. The provider observed these prices at 2026-10-26T18:00:06.173Z, and the source was retrieved at 2026-10-26T19:36:39.011Z [1]. The provider status at observation was "active" [1]. These figures are a single observation from that time. They are not live quotes, not executable prices, and not verified probabilities.
The sample contains one market from one provider event, with no partial sampling [1]. Because only this contract was saved, no cross-platform comparison or ranking is possible from this evidence. The equal prices describe only the moment of observation and do not indicate which outcome the market favored later.
Volume and trader counts are not included in the supplied evidence, so this snapshot says nothing about depth or participation.
What remains uncertain
The evidence does not show the ZEC/USD TWAP values for the window, the beginning-of-window price, or the eventual resolution. It also does not show whether the market has closed or resolved, since the only status recorded is the observation-time status of "active" [1]. Any statement about the current price would require a newer snapshot.
The supplied materials also do not explain why prices stood where they did, and they contain no news or external context about ZCash.

Saved Oct 26, 2026 UTCOverview
ZCash Up or Down is a short-interval price contract on Polymarket about the price of ZCash measured against US dollars. The contract covers the window stated in its title, October 27 from 9:15 AM to 9:20 AM Eastern Time. Its rules say it resolves to "Up" if the time-weighted average price (TWAP) of ZCash over that window is greater than or equal to the price at the start of the window, and to "Down" otherwise [1]. The contract therefore compares an average over the window with a starting reference price, rather than the price at a single moment. The resolution source is Chainlink. The rules name the ZEC/USD TWAP data stream with a 60-second TWAP as the reference [1]. The rules also state that the market concerns the price in that Chainlink data stream for the ZEC/USD pair, and not the price in any other source or spot market [1]. A trader reading the contract should therefore focus on that specific data stream, since other exchanges or price feeds may show different figures. The record used here was observed on October 26, 2026 at 18:00 UTC and retrieved shortly afterward. At that observation time the provider listed the contract as active, with a listed end time of 13:20 UTC on October 27 [1]. The listed end time is a field in the contract record. It is not a separately announced event, and the actual resolution depends on the rules applied to the data stream.
Why It Matters
The contract measures whether the Chainlink ZEC/USD TWAP over a five-minute window finishes at or above its starting level. Because the window is short, the outcome depends on movements within a few minutes rather than on a longer trend. The rules define the comparison precisely: the average over the window is set against the price at the beginning of that window [1]. Understanding this definition matters more than the headline name, since a price that rises and then falls within the window can still resolve differently from one that simply ends higher. The prices shown for the Up and Down outcomes are snapshots from the provider's record and are not executable quotes or verified probabilities. The contract is also specific about its reference. Because it uses one named Chainlink stream [1], a price difference between contracts or between platforms does not by itself indicate an opportunity, since the contracts may reference different data.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this contract resolve to Up?
The contract resolves to "Up" if the time-weighted average price of ZCash over the window stated in the title is greater than or equal to the price at the beginning of that window [1].
What makes this contract resolve to Down?
If the time-weighted average price over the window is below the price at the beginning of the window, the contract resolves to "Down" [1].
Which price source determines the outcome?
The resolution source is information from Chainlink, specifically the ZEC/USD TWAP data stream with a 60-second TWAP. The rules state that other sources or spot markets do not determine the outcome [1].
Does the contract use the closing price of ZCash?
No. The rules use a time-weighted average over the stated window compared with the price at the start of the window, not a single closing price [1].
