Resolution criteria on PolyGram: This market will resolve to “Yes” if the United States formally commits to giving Ukraine a security guarantee, defined as a publicly announced and mutually agreed deal between the Trump administration and the Government of Ukraine which creates a binding obligation for the United States to defend or directly intervene on Ukraine’s behalf, by June 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No.” A qualifying “security guarantee” requires language that is equivalent in character to a NATO Article 5–style mutual defense commitment: the United States must commit to responding militarily if Ukraine is attacked, or otherwise guarantee Ukraine’s defense through binding defense…

Market outcomes

U.S. agrees to give Ukraine security guarantee by June 30? 6% YES95% NO

Market context

The Trump administration's approach to Ukraine security arrangements remains uncertain as negotiations continue over potential peace settlements and long-term defence commitments. A formal U.S. security guarantee—defined here as a binding, publicly announced mutual defence obligation equivalent to NATO Article 5—represents a significant escalation from current policy. The current 7% implied probability on Polymarket's order book reflects substantial scepticism that such a formal commitment will materialise within the 18-month window through June 2026.

Historical precedent suggests formal security guarantees are rare and require sustained political consensus. The U.S. entered NATO in 1949 after years of debate, whilst post-Cold War security arrangements with Eastern European states took years to formalise. Ukraine's 1994 Budapest Memorandum provided assurances but fell short of binding mutual defence obligations. Trump's previous administration withdrew from several international commitments, and his stated preference for negotiated settlements rather than open-ended security pledges shapes current expectations. The 7% probability reflects these structural headwinds against formal guarantees.

Key catalysts include any peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, which could either necessitate or preclude U.S. security guarantees depending on settlement terms. Congressional approval would likely be required for binding commitments, introducing additional procedural hurdles. Statements from Trump administration officials regarding Ukraine policy, scheduled diplomatic meetings, and any formal proposals from either the U.S. or Ukrainian governments will move markets. Reuters and other outlets have reported ongoing discussions about potential security frameworks, though these remain preliminary and non-binding.

How this market resolves

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.

How to trade this market step by step

The mechanics for trading "U.S. agrees to give Ukraine security guarantee by June 30?" are the same as any other PolyGram political 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.

  1. Sign in on polygram.ink with your email — no full KYC under $1,500 lifetime trading volume.
  2. Deposit USDC on Polygon (lowest fees, ~$0.01 per transaction) or Ethereum. Funds credit after 12 confirmations.
  3. Pick a side. Buy YES if you believe the event will happen; buy NO if you think it won't. The current YES price reflects the market's collective probability.
  4. Size your position. If you stake 100 USDC at 6% YES, you'll receive shares that pay $1667 if YES resolves true — a 1567% gross return. If NO resolves, your shares are worth $0.
  5. Set risk controls (optional). Stop-loss, take-profit, and limit-order types all supported. Use the trade ticket's slippage box to cap your maximum entry price.
  6. Wait for resolution. When the event resolves on-chain via the UMA optimistic oracle, the winning side settles to 100¢ automatically and USDC hits your balance within seconds. Withdrawable to any wallet you control.

How active is this market?

$147K in lifetime turnover and $12K of resting liquidity puts this market in the above the median by volume for politics contracts on PolyGram. Order-book depth is thin — large orders may need to be split across the book or executed as limit orders.

Last 24 hours alone saw $670 in turnover, consistent with the market's lifetime daily-average pace.

The market has been open for 4 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.

Key terms

YES / NO share
A binary outcome token that pays $1.00 if the underlying claim resolves true (YES) or false (NO), and $0 otherwise. The market price between 0¢ and 100¢ is the implied probability.
CLOB
Central limit order book. The matching engine that pairs YES buyers with NO buyers (effectively the same trade). Polymarket's CLOB on Polygon executes trades on-chain via the conditional-tokens framework.
Liquidity
USDC capital sitting in resting limit orders inside the order book. Deeper liquidity means smaller slippage on large trades and a tighter bid-ask spread.
UMA optimistic oracle
The on-chain dispute system that settles each Polymarket market. A proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour challenge window opens, and unchallenged proposals finalise the resolution.
Slippage
The difference between the displayed mid-price and your fill price. Affects market orders most; limit orders avoid slippage but may take time to fill.
Conditional token
ERC-1155 outcome share issued by Gnosis Conditional Tokens on Polygon. The token type that resolves to $1.00 or $0.00 at settlement.

Risk and regulatory note

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.
