This market will resolve to "Yes" if the official closing price for the CBOE Volatility INDEX (VIX) for any trading day on or before June 30, 2026 is higher than 50.00. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".

If a relevant trading day is shortened (for example, due to a market-holiday schedule), the official closing price published for that shortened session may still be used for resolution.

If no official closing price is published for a relevant session (for example, due to a trading halt into the close, system issue, or other disruption), the market will use the last valid official price published for the regular session as the effective closing price.

This market will resolve as soon as the CBOE Volatility INDEX closes above the listed value, or once the CBOE Volatility INDEX close price for the final trading day on or before June 30, 2026 is published and the listed value has not been reached for the close of any relevant trading day.
