The market title does not specify a year, but the rules clarify the deadline as December 31, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET. The criteria require a public announcement that the United States will officially refer to the body of water by a new name, allowing 'Strait of Trump', 'Trump Strait', or 'any equivalent name which includes Trump'. Determining what qualifies as an official naming announcement or an acceptable naming variation leaves some room for interpretation, and resolution can rely on a consensus of credible reporting rather than a single definitive government registry.
