About This Event

This market will resolve to "Up" if the time-weighted average price (TWAP) of Bitcoin, 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 BTC/USD TWAP data stream available at https://data.chain.link/streams/btc-usd-twap-60s-streams. Please note that this market is about the price according to the TWAP Chainlink data stream for the asset pair BTC/USD, not according to any other sources or spot markets.

What the contract measures

This is a single five-minute contract titled "Bitcoin Up or Down - October 24, 7:00AM-7:05AM ET" on Polymarket [1]. Its rules state that the market "will resolve to "Up" if the time-weighted average price (TWAP) of Bitcoin, 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" [1]. Otherwise it resolves to "Down" [1].

The resolution source is the Chainlink BTC/USD TWAP data stream, and the rules say the market concerns "the price according to the TWAP Chainlink data stream for the asset pair BTC/USD, not according to any other sources or spot markets" [1]. A reader should therefore not assume the contract tracks exchange spot prices or other Bitcoin price feeds.

The listed end time is 2026-10-24T11:05:00.000Z [1]. That is the contract's closing time, not the time the market was resolved.

Reading the snapshot

The provider observed the market at 2026-10-24T03:00:05.981Z, and this record was retrieved at 2026-10-24T07:53:29.755Z [1]. The observation came about four hours before retrieval, so the prices below describe the earlier observation and should not be read as current.

At observation, the saved prices were Up at 0.505 and Down at 0.495 [1]. Because these are snapshot prices rather than executable quotes, they do not show what a trader could buy or sell at a given moment. The prices also are not verified probabilities of the outcome.

The saved record covers one market for one event, with no other outcomes or platforms in the sample [1]. No comparison with another contract or provider is possible from this evidence, so no cross-platform difference should be inferred.

What remains uncertain

The evidence does not show the Bitcoin price at the start of the window, the TWAP during the window, or the final result. It also does not report the market's status after the observation time, its trading volume, or the number of participants. Price levels in a single snapshot do not explain why the price was where it was.

Readers comparing this contract with others should check each listed close time and resolution source, since differences in wording can change what a market measures.

Overview

This is a short-window binary contract on Bitcoin's price, listed on Polymarket under the title "Bitcoin Up or Down - October 24, 7:00AM-7:05AM ET." The contract resolves to "Up" if the time-weighted average price (TWAP) of Bitcoin over the time range in the title is greater than or equal to the price at the beginning of that range. Otherwise it resolves to "Down" [1]. The provider record gives the listed end time as 2026-10-24T11:05:00.000Z [1]. The resolution source is Chainlink, specifically its BTC/USD TWAP data stream [1]. The provider states that the market concerns the price in that Chainlink data stream for the BTC/USD pair, and not any other source or spot market [1]. Traders reading the contract should therefore look at how that specific stream calculates its average, rather than at a headline exchange price for Bitcoin at a given moment. The contract's wording is what determines the outcome. Because it compares an average over the window with the price at the window's start, the result can differ from whether Bitcoin's price rose or fell between the two endpoints of the window. The market's status in the provider record was active [1].

Why It Matters

The contract measures whether the Chainlink BTC/USD TWAP over the 7:00 to 7:05 AM ET window is greater than or equal to the price at the start of that window [1]. Its usefulness as a reference depends on the defined resolution source. The provider states that other sources and spot markets are not the basis for the outcome [1]. Users should also note the difference between the time of the provider record, the time it was retrieved, the listed contract end time, and the actual resolution, which the provider record does not supply here [1].
