Following Israel's limited airstrikes on Iranian missile facilities on October 26, 2024, trader consensus reflects low implied probabilities for another country launching strikes against Iran before the market deadline, driven by Tehran's restrained response and U.S. calls for de-escalation. Ongoing proxy conflicts—including Hezbollah rocket fire from Lebanon and Houthi Red Sea attacks—have heightened regional tensions, but major powers like the U.S. have limited actions to defensive intercepts without direct hits on Iranian soil. Diplomatic channels remain open amid nuclear talks. The U.S. presidential election on November 5 looms as a key catalyst, potentially reshaping American deterrence policy toward Iran's axis of resistance. Unpredictable retaliatory moves could still shift odds rapidly.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if any country other than Israel or the United States initiates a drone, missile, or air strike on Iranian soil or any official Iranian embassy or consulate by March 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No.”
For the purposes of this market, a qualifying “strike” is defined as the use of aerial bombs, drones, or missiles (including cruise or ballistic missiles) launched by a country other than Israel or the United States’ military forces that impact Iranian ground territory or any official Iranian embassy or consulate (e.g., if a weapons depot on Iranian soil is hit by a missile or drone launched by such a country, this market will resolve to “Yes”).
Missiles or drones that are intercepted and surface-to-air missile strikes will not be sufficient for a “Yes” resolution regardless of whether they land on Iranian territory or cause damage.
Actions such as artillery fire, small arms fire, FPV or ATGM strikes directly, ground incursions, naval shelling, cyberattacks, or other operations conducted by ground forces of countries other than Israel or the United States will not qualify.
