How this market settles

This market will resolve to “Yes” if a diplomatic agreement between Oman and Iran over traffic in the strait of Hormuz is announced by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. A diplomatic agreement refers to an official agreement, treaty, deal, or substantially similar diplomatic instrument that establishes agreed actions, policies, obligations, or commitments between Oman and Iran. A qualifying diplomatic agreement must establish Iranian or Omani policies, obligations, or commitments aimed at managing, permitting, restoring, or increasing vessel or shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, including agreements defining vessel traffic corridors, fee collection policies, or other management policies. All listed countries must announce their acceptance of the same qualifying diplomatic agreement for the Payout Condition to be met. A joint announcement will qualify, as will separate announcements from each entity of its own acceptance of an agreement which, taken together, directly indicate that all the listed countries accepted the same agreement. Separate announcements of individual policies will not qualify if the policies are not announced as part of a diplomatic agreement. Each announcement must be a declarative statement that clearly and unambiguously communicates acceptance of an agreement. Statements that reference ongoing negotiations or a prospective agreement, or that allude to or express support for an agreement without confirming acceptance of the agreement, do not qualify. A qualifying announcement need not reference the agreement by name or use specific terminology, provided it clearly communicates acceptance of an agreement. Whether announcements from the listed countries represent a diplomatic agreement and whether such an agreement qualifies will be primarily determined through the announcements themselves. Where an announcement is made by all listed countries but, based on the announcements, it remains ambiguous whether the announcements represen

What could still go wrong

  • The year for 'November 30' is not explicitly stated in the question title or description, though the end date (2026-12-01T04:59:00Z) implies November 30, 2026.
  • The 14-day ambiguity resolution window could push final resolution past November 30 if potentially qualifying announcements occur near the deadline.
  • 'Consensus of credible reporting' as a resolution source is subjective and undefined.
  • The distinction between 'separate announcements of individual policies' (not qualifying) versus 'separate announcements of acceptance of the same agreement' (qualifying) may be ambiguous in practice.
  • 'Substantially similar diplomatic instrument' to a treaty or agreement is subjective and could cause disputes.
  • Timezone not specified for the 14-calendar-day window start/end beyond 'ET'.
