Resolves on Aug 1, 2025. 50% is included, i.e. if the probability is exactly 50%, this resolves YES.
When I get enough mana I'll make a second market about being below 50%. I'll link it here when that happens.
Some explanation for this troll-y market:
The market encourages people to bet "with the flow". If the probability is far enough away from 50%, it becomes more and more likely for the question to resolve that way, and people won't want to bet in the other direction. However, when the probability gets extreme enough (maybe 80%), the reward for betting becomes so small that some risk-enjoying traders might want to spend huge sums on reversing the direction of the market.
