This market will resolve to “No” if any of the following conditions are met between market creation and December 31, 2026, 11:59 ET: - Trump out as President - China invades Taiwan - Xi Jinping out - U.S. invades Iran - Iranian regime falls - Bitcoin hits ‘↑ 1M’ or ‘↓ 10k’ - Jeffrey Epstein alive - Republican Trifecta with Supermajority in the Senate - Russia invades a NATO country - Trump acquires Greenland - 9.0 or above earthquake - Major volcano eruption (VEI ≥6) - Major meteor strike (250kt+) Otherwise, this market will resolve to “Yes”. The full rules for this market can be found here: https://polymarket-upload.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/NEH+2026.pdfTrader consensus on the "Nothing Ever Happens: 2026" market reflects a 67% implied probability for Yes after five months without any of the 13 specified triggers—such as a Chinese invasion of Taiwan, U.S. invasion of Iran, Russian incursion into a NATO country, Trump exiting the presidency, Xi Jinping's removal, Iranian regime collapse, Bitcoin surging above $1 million or crashing below $10,000, Jeffrey Epstein appearing alive, Republican trifecta with Senate supermajority, Trump acquiring Greenland, or major natural disasters like a 9.0+ earthquake or VEI 6+ volcanic eruption. Recent de-escalations drove this positioning, including a May 9 Ukraine Victory Day truce reducing Russia-NATO invasion risks and U.S. airstrikes on Iranian Hormuz targets that stopped short of full invasion criteria. President Trump remains secure amid stable GOP congressional majorities pre-midterms, Xi faces no credible ouster threats, and Bitcoin trades steadily. A May 14 Trump-Xi summit could further ease Taiwan tensions, though November midterms pose the primary near-term risk for a Republican Senate supermajority.
