Resolution criteria on PolyGram: This market will resolve to "Yes" if the "Close" price for the ETH/USDT 1 hour candle that ends on the time and date specified in the title is higher than the price specified in the title. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". The resolution source for this market is Binance, specifically the ETH/USDT "Close" prices currently available at https://www.binance.com/en/trade/ETH_USDT with "1h" and "Candles" selected on the top bar. Please note that this market is about the price according to Binance ETH/USDT, not according to other exchanges or trading pairs. Price precision is determined by the number of decimal places in the source.
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.

This market resolves based on Ethereum's closing price on the ETH/USDT pair at 9PM Eastern Time on 6 May 2026, using Binance's 1-hour candle data as the sole reference. The settlement window extends to 1AM UTC on 7 May, allowing for any final price movements before resolution. The current 100% implied probability on Polymarket's order book reflects either an exceptionally tight price band around the specified threshold or minimal liquidity at current odds, both common patterns for narrow, time-specific price targets in cryptocurrency markets.
Historical precedent suggests that single-hour Ethereum price targets rarely sustain extreme probabilities when the resolution date lies months ahead. Volatility clustering and intraday price swings typically create meaningful uncertainty even when macro conditions appear stable. Markets pricing similar hourly ETH targets have historically shown probability compression as settlement approaches, particularly when external catalysts—regulatory announcements, major protocol upgrades, or macroeconomic data releases—fall within the resolution window. The 2026 timeframe encompasses multiple potential Federal Reserve decisions and possible Ethereum network developments that could shift implied volatility substantially.
Traders should monitor scheduled events including any Ethereum Foundation announcements, US economic data releases scheduled near the resolution date, and broader cryptocurrency market sentiment shifts. Bitcoin's price action often correlates strongly with Ethereum intraday movements, making BTC volatility a relevant indicator. The current order book depth and bid-ask spread on Polymarket will determine whether the 100% probability reflects genuine conviction or simply thin liquidity at this specific strike price.
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 "Ethereum above ___ on May 6, 9PM ET?" 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.
$3K in lifetime turnover and $0 of resting liquidity puts this market in the below the median by volume for ethereum 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 under a month — fresh enough that information asymmetry remains a real factor.
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.
Resolution is handled by the UMA optimistic oracle on Polygon. A proposer submits the outcome, a 2-hour dispute window opens, and if uncontested the payout is final. Contested outcomes escalate to UMA token holders.
This prediction market is scheduled to close on 7 May 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.
