How this market settles
What could still go wrong
- The description references an issuance date of Nov 2, 2026 but the market end date is Dec 1, 2026 UTC (Nov 30, 2026 11:59 PM EST), creating a potentially long window with unclear intermediate checkpoints.
- The phrase 'discard the highest 20% and lowest 20% of BRTI observations in that minute' is ambiguous if the number of observations per minute is not evenly divisible by 5, leaving uncertainty about rounding.
- Last trading defined as 'the earlier of the first 10:00 AM ET following a qualifying occurrence or the stated deadline' introduces ambiguity about what 'first 10:00 AM ET following' means if a qualifying event occurs exactly at or after 10:00 AM ET.
- Reference to 'BTCMINMAX' expiration and data-availability contingencies is an external document not fully defined here, creating potential ambiguity in edge cases.
- Timezone handling: the window uses EST but the end date metadata is expressed in UTC; any daylight saving time transitions between Nov 2 and Nov 30, 2026 could affect boundary times.
