President Donald Trump on Sunday announced that a framework agreement to end the war with Iran had been reached.
Trump, in a post on Truth Social, said, "The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete." While announcing this, Trump also said that "Ships of the World, start your engines.
Let the oil flow," stating that he had authorized the "toll free opening of the Strait of Hormuz." Here's What Prediction Market Is Saying While Trump has called for an immediate opening of the Strait of Hormuz and resumption of traffic, prediction markets are not very confident about traffic returning to normal in June.
Polymarket, a Polygon (CRYPTO: POL) based prediction platform that allows users to wager on an outcome using the USDC (CRYPTO: USDC) stablecoin, is currently betting on a contract "Strait of Hormuz traffic returns to normal by end of June?" Over $22.5 million has been bet on the contract so far.
Despite Trump announcing the deal with Iran, bettors have placed a 30% probability on traffic returning to normal by June 30, down by 45%.
