The market relies heavily on a specific third-party tracker (xtracker) and has explicit caveats for replies and deleted posts (e.g., deleted posts count if captured within ~5 minutes). Latency in tracker data capture versus the actual X timeline could lead to resolution disputes, especially near the boundaries of the options.

Predicting the exact number of times a specific politician posts on social media within a given week is a highly niche and novelty concept that nobody outside of prediction market participants would naturally think about or track.

2026-04-12 - 2026-04-13, the price of the 40-59 option surged from 26c to 49c, while the 80-99 option plummeted from 34.5c to 13.5c. This is because Ted Cruz's posting rate dropped noticeably during this period, leading to a massive downward revision in the market's expectation of the final post count. 2026-04-12 - 2026-04-12, the price of the 60-79 option plummeted from 55.5c to 30c, and the 40-59 option fell from 46.5c to 28.5c, while the 80-99 option surged from 19.5c to 32.5c. This was caused by a short-term spike in posting activity, prompting an upward revision in the market's estimated total volume. 2026-04-10 - 2026-04-11, the price of the 100-119 option plummeted from 29c to 5.5c. This is because, as the first day's posting data became clearer, expectations for a very high frequency of over 100 posts cooled significantly, leading to a rapid withdrawal of capital. 2026-04-10 - 2026-04-11, the price of the 80-99 option fell from a peak of 47c to 28.5c, reflecting the market's recalibration of the total volume based on the latest posting rate. 2026-04-07 - 2026-04-10, the price for the 60-79 option surged from 26.5c to 44c. This is due to the market correcting the initially flat pricing as time progresses, with liquidity converging into the most probable posting range. 2026-04-07 - 2026-04-10, the price for the 80-99 option also surged from 26.5c to 43c, as market expectations became clearer and capital moved toward high-probability brackets. 2026-04-07 - 2026-04-10, the price for the 120-139 option plummeted from 26.5c to 5c, reflecting the very low likelihood of an exceptionally high post volume, prompting a downward market correction. 2026-04-07 - 2026-04-10, the price for the 20-39 option plummeted from 25.5c to 1.55c, as Cruz's current activity level virtually rules out such a low post count.
