KALSHI CHARGES

67¢

MARKETS LIKE THIS SETTLED AT

66¢

Contracts like this one have settled YES 66.0% of the time against a 67c price, which is close enough to fair that the 2c fee eats whatever is left. Based on 2,561 settled markets across all categories in the 60-69c band (we do not yet hold enough politics history to price this by category, so this is the market-wide curve and is weaker evidence).

This is what this kind of contract has been worth, not a forecast for this one: a band average does not know what is happening in the news. See the Fair Value Board for every market scored this way, or the politics curve it came from.

What history says about this price

Across our settled record, markets priced near 60–69¢ have gone on to settle YES 66% of the time (n=2,561). The price implies 61%, so historically this band has come in about 5 points higher than the sticker. That is history, not a forecast for this specific market. See the Truth Machine for the full curve.
