Analysis
This probability represents the estimated likelihood that Vladimir Putin will no longer serve as President of Russia by year-end 2026—roughly seven months away. At 12%, the market reflects extremely low expectations for regime change, suggesting traders view Putin's political position as highly stable over this timeframe. The baseline is shaped by Russia's institutional continuity and Putin's consolidated control, though the probability could shift significantly based on developments in the ongoing conflict with Ukraine, any sudden health concerns, or unexpected domestic political fractures. The most concrete resolution point is whether major geopolitical or internal developments occur that destabilize Putin's authority before the year ends. Currently, prediction markets price such scenarios as tail risks rather than base-case outcomes.
- ›Russia's current military engagement in Ukraine continues without indication of regime collapse, suggesting institutional stability remains high through 2026
- ›Comparison markets show similar low probabilities for other major leader exits (Zelenskyy 16%, Erdoğan 11%), indicating general market skepticism about rapid leadership transitions
- ›A 12-cent price implies traders assign meaningful probability to unexpected events, but within a narrow cone that strongly favors continuity
- ›No scheduled elections, mandatory transitions, or known succession mechanisms in Russia's political system create natural near-term opportunities for leadership change
- ›Trading volume ($24k+ in 24 hours) shows modest but consistent interest, suggesting the contract is priced by a functioning market rather than illiquid speculation

Ukraine Ceasefire Odds Sink: December Target Loses 4 Cents
The probability of a Russia-Ukraine ceasefire by December 31 fell 4 cents to 47%, while the 'peace deal before 2027' contract edged up 1 cent to 29%. This divergence suggests traders see a ceasefire as less likely near-term, but are not giving up on a longer-term peace process. Russia's capture of key towns is also being priced.
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.
