Results Oct 16The market required a USGS-listed earthquake with a numeric magnitude of at least 5.1 in Papua New Guinea between 00:00 UTC on October 13, 2026 and 00:00 UTC on October 16, 2026. The USGS recorded three qualifying events on October 13, 2026: 14:36 UTC magnitude 5.3 at 129 km south of Kokopo, 16:28 UTC magnitude 5.1 at 123 km south of Kokopo, and 18:45 UTC magnitude 6.0 at 126 km south of Kokopo. All three magnitudes meet the 5.1 threshold and their timestamps fall inside the stated window, so the market resolves to yes.

Final crowd probability
The crowd was 61% sure, and they nailed it.
Why: Extracted condition: USGS catalog must list ≥1 earthquake with numeric 'mag' ≥ 5.1 in Papua New Guinea at or after 2026-10-13T00:00:00Z and strictly before 2026-10-16T00:00:00Z. Observations (USGS query returned 3 matching events): 2026-10-13 14:36 UTC — M5.3 (129 km S of Kokopo, PNG); 2026-10-13 16:28 UTC — M5.1 (123 km S of Kokopo, PNG); 2026-10-13 18:45 UTC — M6 (126 km S of Kokopo, PNG). Each event's numeric mag value (5.3, 5.1, 6.0) is ≥ 5.1 and each timestamp lies within the stated window, so the condition is satisfied → YES.

How markets are built and settledIf earthquake
With Papua New Guinea's recent seismic activity showing seven quakes above 4.5 in the past week, the likelihood of a 5.1 event during the betting window is pretty solid. I'm leaning YES here.
