How this market settles

If Donald Trump and Flávio Bolsonaro meet in person after Issuance and before Dec 1, 2026, then the market resolves to Yes. Both Donald Trump and Flávio Bolsonaro must be physically present in the same location and directly communicate or interact after Issuance and before the applicable date. A bilateral, pull-aside, sideline, informal, or multilateral encounter qualifies if direct interaction is documented. Mere co-attendance, proximity without interaction, an intermediary, a letter, a phone or video call, a prerecorded appearance, or a scheduled-but-cancelled meeting does NOT qualify.

What could still go wrong

  • 'Issuance' date is not explicitly defined in the description — the exact start date boundary is unclear
  • 'Directly communicate or interact' is somewhat subjective — minimum threshold of interaction required for qualification is not precisely defined
  • 'Documented' is not defined — no specific source or documentation standard is specified for verifying the meeting occurred
  • Flávio Bolsonaro is a less prominent public figure than his father Jair Bolsonaro, so confusion or misidentification in reporting could cause resolution disputes
