Analysis
The 5¢ price reflects an extremely low probability of Pete Hegseth visiting Iran within 76 days, yet the Yes side offers an astronomical 9,178.5% implied yield, suggesting either severe underpricing or near-zero genuine demand for this outcome. The $23,709 open interest against just $97.69 in 24-hour volume indicates illiquid depth with likely wide real execution spreads despite the tight 1¢ quoted spread, making this a classic low-liquidity trap where the extreme yield may not be achievable at scale. With a Cliff Risk Index of 19 and the market showing zero price movement over seven days, this appears to be a speculative long-shot bet with minimal conviction from traders.
Resolution rules
If Pete Hegseth has physically travelled to and been present within the geographic boundaries of Iran before Jul 1, 2026, then the market resolves to Yes.
