Resolution criteria on PolyGram: On February 28, Elon Musk posted that it was likely Starship would become fully reusable in 2025. You can see the X post here: https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1895598258225106984 This market will resolve to "Yes" if SpaceX or Elon Musk announces that Starship is fully reusable by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Note, this market refers to the Starship upper stage and does not require reusability for the Super-Heavy booster. For this market to resolve to "Yes" it is not necessary that an actual reuse occur, only that SpaceX or Elon Musk announces that Starship is fully reusable by this market's resolution date.
PolyGram is an on-chain prediction market where you trade YES or NO outcome shares with real USDC on Polygon. For this market, buy YES if you believe the event will happen, or NO if you think it won't. Your maximum loss is your stake — winning shares pay $1.00 each at resolution. Unlike sportsbooks, there is no house edge: prices are set by supply and demand from other traders and reflect the crowd's real-time probability.
Market outcomes
| SpaceX Starship fully reusable before 2027? | 37% YES | 64% NO |
SpaceX's Starship programme aims to achieve full reusability of the upper stage by the end of 2026. On 28 February, Elon Musk stated that full reusability was likely to occur in 2025, though this timeline has proven optimistic in previous SpaceX announcements. The market settles on an official announcement from SpaceX or Musk confirming the milestone, not necessarily a demonstrated flight reuse. Current order book pricing on Polymarket implies 39% probability of "Yes" by the settlement deadline of 31 December 2026.
SpaceX's track record with reusability timelines offers context for calibrating this probability. The company achieved Falcon 9 booster reusability in 2015, roughly two years behind initial targets, and has since conducted hundreds of successful booster reuses. Starship presents substantially greater engineering complexity, with the upper stage requiring heat shield integrity, controlled re-entry, and catch-mechanism reliability. The Super Heavy booster—not required for this market—adds further development burden, though the upper stage alone represents a significant technical hurdle.
Key catalysts include the cadence of Starship integrated flight tests, scheduled roughly quarterly through 2025–2026. Recent tests have focused on booster catch and upper-stage recovery techniques. Musk's public statements carry weight in settlement interpretation, though the market specifically requires an explicit announcement of full reusability rather than incremental progress. Any major test failure or programme delay would likely shift probabilities downward, whilst successful consecutive upper-stage recoveries would provide upward pressure ahead of any formal announcement.
Resolution is handled by the UMA optimistic oracle on Polygon. A proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour dispute window opens, and if no one stakes a counter-claim the payout is final. Contested outcomes escalate to UMA token-holder voting. Payouts clear in USDC to the winning side.
The mechanics for trading "SpaceX Starship fully reusable before 2027?" are the same as any other PolyGram event contract. Each YES share resolves to $1 if the event happens, or $0 if it doesn't. The current price between 0¢ and 100¢ is the market's probability estimate, set live by the order book.
$110K in lifetime turnover and $1K of resting liquidity puts this market in the above the median by volume for business contracts on PolyGram. Order-book depth is thin — large orders may need to be split across the book or executed as limit orders.
The market has been open for 6 months — the price has had time to stabilise as new information arrived.
Higher-volume markets tend to have tighter spreads and faster price discovery — meaning the displayed YES/NO percentages are more likely to reflect the true crowd-implied probability rather than a single trader's directional view.
As of today, traders on Polymarket price this outcome at 37%. The number updates continuously as the order book clears. PolyGram mirrors the same live odds with locale-aware formatting and USDC settlement.

This prediction market is scheduled to close on 31 December 2026. After the resolving event occurs, settlement typically clears within 24 hours once the UMA optimistic oracle confirms the outcome. All payouts are in USDC on the Polygon network.

Prediction-market positions can lose 100% of staked capital. Outcomes are uncertain by definition — historical accuracy of crowd-implied probabilities is high in aggregate but not for any single market. PolyGram does not provide investment advice. Trade only with capital you can afford to lose.
Regulatory status varies by jurisdiction. Germany, the United States, and most EU countries treat Polymarket-style event contracts under one of three frameworks: financial derivative, gambling product, or unregulated novel asset. Consult local counsel before trading.
