Trader consensus favors zero magnitude 6.5 or greater earthquakes from April 13-19 at 65.5%, driven by USGS-confirmed absence of any such events through April 16 and alignment with historical global baseline rates of approximately 0.4-0.5 per week under the Gutenberg-Richter frequency-magnitude relation. Steady seismicity in high-risk zones like the Pacific Ring of Fire shows no elevated activity, swarms, or aftershock sequences—such as lingering from the April 1 M7.4 Indonesia event—poised to exceed thresholds in the remaining days. While earthquakes remain unpredictable without reliable short-term forecasts, real-time USGS monitoring via global seismic networks will capture any developments, with market resolution hinging on final confirmed counts post-April 19.

The resolution source for this market is the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Earthquake Hazards Program (https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/browse/significant.php#sigdef).
If an earthquake of substantial size has occurred within this market's timeframe but not yet appeared on the resolution source, this market may remain open until May 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or until the earthquake in question otherwise appears on the resolution source. If such an earthquake has not appeared on the resolution source by that date, another credible resolution source will be used.
This market may not resolve until the timeframe of this market has concluded. If a qualifying earthquake has been recorded on the final day, this market may remain open for 24 hours to allow for revisions to the recorded magnitude. After 24 hours, this market will resolve according to the latest provided data.
