The resolution criteria are strictly defined using a single metric from a single designated exchange. The market resolves to Yes immediately if any one-minute candle on Binance for the BTC/USDT pair reaches or exceeds $250,000 between November 24, 2025, at 14:00 ET and December 31, 2026, at 23:59 ET. If that threshold is not reached during the window, it resolves to No. The only specific mechanic to note is that price action on other exchanges, index feeds, or alternative trading pairs does not count.
