Satoshi Bitcoin movement by year-end consensus holds deeply skeptical
- Polymarket prices only a 6% probability that Satoshi moves any Bitcoin by end of 2026, resolved via UMA oracle.
- The quantum freeze debate draws fresh attention to dormant Satoshi coins, but the market treats voluntary movement by Satoshi as a very low-probability event regardless of the external threat.
- A companion Kalshi contract (CM-EVT-77NC57P468) puts only 5% on Satoshi moving any Bitcoin by 2027, showing near-identical skepticism across venues and a slightly longer horizon.
- The near-zero pricing across both venues implies the market is not pricing in the quantum threat as a trigger for Satoshi action, the proposal itself is the news, not evidence of movement.
