This market will resolve to "Yes" if the use of X/Twitter is banned within any European country by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". For the purposes of this market, a “European country” is defined as any of the following sovereign states: Albania, Andorra, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Kosovo, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Moldova, Monaco, Montenegro, Netherlands, North Macedonia, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom, and Vatican City. A ban will qualify if legislation is enacted or government action is taken to bar the respective country's citizens from downloading and/or viewing X/Twitter, and/or posting on X/Twitter. Any legislation or government action that meets these standards will qualify, regardless of whether or when the ban goes into effect. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the respective government and X/Twitter; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Trader consensus on Polymarket prices a 77.5% implied probability against X facing a full ban in any European country by year-end, driven by the European Commission's December 2025 €120 million Digital Services Act (DSA) fine for transparency and verification lapses, which X is actively challenging at the EU's top court while implementing mandated changes to its blue-check system as of March 2026. No member state has escalated to outright platform prohibitions despite public polls showing conditional support for bans amid content moderation disputes; recent Dutch court rulings targeted xAI's Grok chatbot for non-consensual imagery rather than X itself. UK warnings over AI deepfakes echo similar rhetoric without enforcement, underscoring DSA's preference for fines over last-resort bans, with appeals and compliance efforts as key catalysts tempering sentiment ahead of potential summer rulings.
