How this market settles

This market will resolve to “Yes” if Prabowo Subianto ceases to be President of the Republic of Indonesia for any period of time between market creation and the specified date (ET). Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. An announcement of Prabowo Subianto's resignation/removal before this market's end date will immediately resolve this market to "Yes", regardless of when the announced resignation/removal goes into effect. If the specified individual is detained, effectively removed from the specified position, or otherwise permanently prevented from fulfilling the duties of the specified position within this market’s timeframe, it will qualify for a “Yes” resolution. The resolution source for this market will be official information from Prabowo Subianto and the government of Indonesia; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.

What could still go wrong

  • 'Effectively removed from the specified position' is subjective and could be disputed if there is a temporary incapacitation or power transfer without formal removal
  • 'Permanently prevented from fulfilling duties' is ambiguous — it is unclear what threshold distinguishes temporary incapacitation from permanent prevention
  • The phrase 'for any period of time' in the description suggests even a brief cessation qualifies, but this could conflict with scenarios like temporary medical incapacitation where the VP assumes acting duties
  • Timezone ambiguity: end date is specified as December 31, 2026 ET but the UTC timestamp is 2027-01-01T04:59:00Z, which may cause edge-case resolution disputes
  • Reliance on 'consensus of credible reporting' as a fallback source introduces subjectivity in determining what constitutes credible reporting
