  • Senegal — the market puts it at 0%, closing 15 Jan 2031. The market resolves to Yes if Senegal wins the 2030 FIFA Men's World Cup. It resolves to No if they do not win that specific tournament. Readers often mistake this for a prediction about the upcoming AFCON final verdict mentioned in the linked story.
