Tracks the leading outcome in a winner-take-all prediction market set with 7 outcomes.

Why this matters:
This market estimates the likelihood that SpaceX will report more than 12.5 million active Starlink subscribers by the end of Q3 2026. The 94% probability reflects confidence in reaching this threshold, though it declines sharply at higher subscriber counts (84% for 13.5 million, 68% for 14 million), suggesting uncertainty about growth velocity. Key drivers include Starlink's historical subscriber growth trajectory, competitive pressure from other satellite internet providers, regional adoption rates, and service reliability perception. The market will resolve when SpaceX releases official Q3 2026 financial results or subscriber counts, typically in late October or early November 2026. The tight clustering of probabilities across contracts indicates market participants view modest subscriber growth as most likely, rather than explosive expansion or stagnation.

Key factors:
- SpaceX's Q2 2026 subscriber count and reported quarterly growth rate prior to Q3 resolution
- Competitive dynamics from rival satellite internet services and terrestrial broadband availability in key markets
- Service outages, regulatory actions, or major coverage expansions announced between now and Q3 2026 earnings release
- Regional adoption patterns in underserved areas where Starlink has concentrated deployment efforts
- Historical growth rates and whether SpaceX maintains, accelerates, or decelerates subscriber additions relative to recent quarters

## Methodology

SimpleFunctions aggregates live YES-side prices from Kalshi and Polymarket contracts bound to this question. For binary topics the headline is the liquidity-weighted mid-price (weight = log(1 + 24h volume) × freshness, where freshness is 1.0 if updated <24h, 0.7 if <7d, 0.4 otherwise). For multi-outcome (winner-take-all) topics the headline is the current leader's price — disjoint outcomes are never arithmetically averaged. Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours.

## SF Signal

- SF Index, regime, and 30d Brier calibration are computed separately and surfaced at https://simplefunctions.dev/admin/calibration.
- No SimpleFunctions index / regime / calibration signal is bound to this topic yet — the headline above is market-derived only.
