This market will resolve according to the total number of earthquakes with a magnitude of 5.5 or higher that occur anywhere on Earth between April 13, 2026, 12:00 AM ET, and April 19, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. The resolution source for this market is the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Earthquake Hazards Program, with the minimum magnitude set to 5.5 and the date parameters set to the relevant dates for this market's timeframe (https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/search/). If an earthquake of substantial size has occurred within this market's timeframe but not yet appeared on the resolution source, this market may remain open until May 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or until the earthquake in question otherwise appears on the resolution source. If such an earthquake has not appeared on the resolution source by that date, another credible resolution source will be used. This market may not resolve until the timeframe of this market has concluded. If a qualifying earthquake has been recorded on the final day, this market may remain open for 24 hours to allow for revisions to the recorded magnitude. After 24 hours, this market will resolve according to the latest provided data.Trader consensus heavily favors more than nine earthquakes of magnitude 5.5 or greater worldwide from April 13-19 at 82% implied probability, aligned with USGS historical baseline of approximately 20-25 such events per week amid typical plate boundary activity along the Ring of Fire and mid-ocean ridges. Subdued early-week pace—featuring a notable M5.7 shallow quake near Silver Springs, Nevada, on April 13 UTC along the Walker Lane fault system, plus M5.5+ in Tonga and the South Pacific—has accelerated with steady detections through April 18, per USGS real-time catalog. As the period closes today, final reviewed counts may see minor magnitude revisions, but no unusual swarms or aftershock sequences signal deviation from norms.
