Analysis

This probability estimates the likelihood that at least one individual will be named in the Epstein-related documents that the U.S. government has committed to releasing during 2026. The question hinges on both the scope and timing of document releases, as well as how broadly 'named' is interpreted. Currently, markets are split on this outcome, with Kalshi traders pricing it 14 percentage points higher than Polymarket participants, suggesting disagreement about release schedules and content. The main resolution driver will be the actual documents released through 2026, which are subject to court deadlines and potential extensions. Markets are closely tracking whether any material documents emerge before year-end and whether they contain identifiable allegations or associations beyond previously public information.

  • Timing of court-ordered releases: Documents are subject to ongoing litigation with specific judicial deadlines that may be accelerated, delayed, or extended
  • Definition of 'named': Whether the resolution criteria include any mention, direct allegation, business transaction, or only substantive criminal associations will significantly affect outcomes
  • Content threshold: Markets diverge on whether documents must name individuals not previously identified in released materials or whether any naming satisfies the criteria
  • Volume and redaction rates: Government redactions for national security or witness protection could substantially reduce the number of identifiable names in released documents
  • Cross-venue probability gap of 14 percentage points suggests material uncertainty about either release likelihood or interpretation of resolution rules

How we compute these odds

SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.

For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.

Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
