One prediction market prices this story:
- Russia — the market puts it at 2%, with $4k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2031. The outcome is Yes if Russia launches a crewed lunar mission before January 1, 2031, and no other country has done so first. The outcome is No if another nation achieves this milestone first or if Russia fails to launch a crewed mission by that date. Readers often mistake the deadline for the end of the year in which the launch occurs, but the rule specifies January 1, 2031, as the absolute cutoff.
Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
