One prediction market prices this story:

  • Above 198 thousand — the market puts it at 30%, closing 31 Mar 2028. The market resolves to Yes if Toast Inc. reports having more than 198,000 total locations in 2026. It resolves to No if the company reports 198,000 or fewer locations. Readers often mistake the FTC lawsuit headline for the resolution criteria, but only Toast's reported location count matters.
