The market resolves when the winner of Best Picture at the 99th Academy Awards is officially announced during the live broadcast.

If two or more nominees are tied for the award (e.g., declared co-winners), the market will settle at 1/n, where n is the total number of tied winners.

If the 99th Academy Awards ceremony does not take place, or if the Best Picture category is not awarded, the market will settle as Event Cancelled.

The official resolution sources are the agencies listed in Rule 14.29 Section (c) in the CDNA Rulebook, which can be found at here.

Liquidity may be low when the event is in progress. Trading is temporarily paused during scheduled maintenance periods.
