This market will resolve to "Yes" if the United States commences a military offensive intended to establish control over any portion of Iran by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". For the purposes of this market, land de facto controlled by Iran or the United States as of November 4, 2025 12:00 PM ET, will be considered the sovereign territory of that country. The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible sources.Trader consensus reflects a 72.5% implied probability against a U.S. ground invasion of Iran before 2027, driven by the administration's restraint amid an ongoing air and naval campaign launched in Operation Epic Fury since late February. Recent exchanges of fire in the Strait of Hormuz, including U.S. strikes on Iranian ports and tankers last week, have tested a fragile ceasefire, yet President Trump rejected Tehran's latest counterproposal three days ago as "totally unacceptable," prioritizing mediated negotiations via Pakistan over escalation to boots-on-ground operations. Rising Pentagon costs nearing $29 billion, domestic polling skepticism on the war's value, and stalled talks underscore limited appetite for full invasion, with focus on sanctions, blockades, and nuclear curbs despite neocon calls for broader action.
