Gotcha risk — resolution-rule assessment

The market title broadly asks about an Iranian leadership change, but the specific rules hinge entirely on whether Mojtaba Khamenei ceases to be the de facto leader or is prevented from acting in that role. If a participant assumes this market tracks the official Supreme Leader generally or current head of state, they may be caught off guard by the explicit focus on Mojtaba Khamenei. Furthermore, assessing whether an individual is de facto in power or prevented from acting is inherently subjective and relies entirely on a consensus of credible reporting rather than an official institutional source, giving the resolver substantial discretion. The rules also specify that an official announcement of departure triggers immediate resolution even if the actual exit is scheduled for a future date.
