Resolved monthly throughout 2025 based on updates to the Carnegie Endowment Protest Tracker:

https://carnegieendowment.org/features/global-protest-tracker?lang=en

It’s impossible to predict exactly when the tracker will be updated, so this market may close early or be extended a few times mid month.

Resolves YES if there is a protest of >10,000 participants. NO if the country makes it to the end of 2025 with no protests that large.

Once resolved, countries can’t be re-added until the active protest is finished (too confusing otherwise). Countries only. Non-countries resolved as NA.

Update 2025-05-07 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): For Germany, which has been re-added to the market after previous protests:
- It will resolve YES if another mass protest with >10,000 participants begins.
- This qualifying protest must start in May 2025 or thereafter.

Update 2025-06-30 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Rallies in favor of policies or governance do not count as qualifying protests.

Hi,

shouldn't this resolve YES?

@MiguelLM hmm yes

@BlueDragon can you edit the answers to specify the start date?

For example:
United States III - July or later
instead of
United States III

It is a bit messy to go through all the comments to figure out the start date for each option

bought Ṁ10 United States III (a... NO

@MiguelLM yep, done

Can we get an answer on if adding countries with ongoing mass public protests counts? It's nearing end of the season.

@FecalAbhuman should resolve if ongoing protests count

If I add an option but the protests are already ongoing how does that work? Would it require another protest movement to resolve yes?

Why did it close early?

@FecalAbhuman please read market description. The protest tracker is updated monthly. The schedule is not consistent. There is also an explanation for ongoing protests, to avoid the obvious tautological problems with resolving yes in an ongoing situation every month.
