About

If a data center moratorium is enacted in Alaska before Jan 1, 2028, then the market resolves to Yes. A data center moratorium is a legally binding state action, such as a statute, executive order, regulation, or agency or utility-commission order, that categorically prohibits or suspends at least one approval, permit, utility interconnection, or other pathway that new or expanded data centers need to proceed. It must apply throughout the state, not only in particular localities or regions. A utility-commission order counts if it covers every utility the commission regulates. It may cover only a defined class of data centers, such as by power demand, water use, size, or new versus expanded status, and may exempt existing facilities, approved projects, or applications past a specified stage. It need not be called a moratorium, and a permanent prohibition also qualifies. It counts once it is operative and mandatory for the agencies, regulators, or utilities responsible for the affected pathway, even if it later expires, is repealed, or is enjoined. The following do NOT qualify: Holds or denials affecting a single project or developer Restrictions on the sale, lease, or other disposition of state-owned property Changes to tax exemptions, subsidies, or other financial incentives Studies, reports, task forces, or nonbinding requests New requirements that a project can proceed by satisfying Measures that only slow or add review to applications

FAQs

A prediction market lets you trade contracts on future events. Each pays $1 if the event happens, $0 if not. The price reflects the market’s odds. For example, $0.65 means a 65% chance. Buy “Yes” if you think it will happen, “No” if not. If you’re right, you earn $1 minus what you paid (minus fees).

When you buy “Yes”, you're betting the event will happen. If it does, you earn $1 per contract. When you buy “No”, you're betting the event will not happen. If it doesn't, you earn $1 per contract.

You can trade regulated “Yes/No” contracts on outcomes in crypto, economics, politics, sports, entertainment, technology, science, and more. New markets are added regularly, all with clear rules and settlement policies based on the result.

You need a Coinbase account and must complete onboarding to Coinbase Financial Markets (CFM), our regulated derivatives entity. This includes identity verification and basic income/net worth details. Once approved, you can fund your account and start trading.

You can use the cash (USD and USDC) in your main Coinbase account to trade. Cash held for positions will be moved to your derivatives account. When you close positions, freed up funds will be transferred back to your main Coinbase account.

Each market has rules that explain how its outcome is decided. When the event happens, an independent, regulated exchange determines the result using a stated “source of truth,” such as official data, market prices, or trusted news. Settlement is based only on that source, which is listed in the contract before you trade.

Settlement is when a market ends and contracts are converted to their final value. You receive $1 if the event happened and $0 if it did not. Payouts are then made to traders.

When the event result is confirmed, each correct contract you hold settles at $1, and each incorrect contract settles at $0. Your total payout is $1 × number of winning contracts, and your profit is that payout minus what you originally paid (minus any fees).



For example, say you buy 10 “Yes” contracts at $0.40 each, this costs you $4.00. If the event happens, each contract pays you $1.00. The payout credited to you would be 10 * $1.00 = $10.00. However, your profit would be $10.00 - $4.00 = $6.00 (minus fees).

Payouts happen after settlement, but settlement transfers may be delayed on U.S. bank holidays, weekends, or outside banking hours. Delays can also occur while an independent third party confirms the result. You can find more details on the contract pages.

When you trade, a fee is applied. This covers costs for operating the market and the broker fee. Fees vary by market and are shown in the trade preview before you place your order.

You can trade prediction markets 24/7, except during the weekly maintenance window from Thursday 3:00–5:00 am ET, when trading is paused.
