This market will resolve to "Yes" if the next DeepSeek V model is made available to the general public by January 31, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No." Intermediate versions (e.g., DeepSeek-V3.5) will not count; however, versions such as DeepSeek V4 or V5 would count. For this market to resolve to "Yes," the next DeepSeek V model must be launched and publicly accessible, including via open beta or open rolling waitlist signups. A closed beta or any form of private access will not suffice. The release must be clearly defined and publicly announced by DeepSeek as being accessible to the general public. The "next DeepSeek V model" refers to the next major release in the DeepSeek V series, explicitly named as such or clearly positioned as a successor to DeepSeek-V3. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from DeepSeek, with additional verification from a consensus of credible reporting.This market will resolve to "Yes" if the next DeepSeek V model is made available to the general public by February 28, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET.

Open-sourced on Hugging Face with 1M context windows and API availability, these models deliver benchmarks rivaling closed-source leaders like Claude Opus 4.6 in agentic coding and GPT-5.4 in math, at far lower inference costs. This bolsters China's open-source AI push amid U.S. dominance, with traders eyeing rapid integrations via platforms like SiliconFlow; full V4 rollout and third-party evaluations could further solidify competitive positioning.

Open-sourced on Hugging Face with 1M context windows and API availability, these models deliver benchmarks rivaling closed-source leaders like Claude Opus 4.6 in agentic coding and GPT-5.4 in math, at far lower inference costs. This bolsters China's open-source AI push amid U.S. dominance, with traders eyeing rapid integrations via platforms like SiliconFlow; full V4 rollout and third-party evaluations could further solidify competitive positioning.
