Shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remains severely restricted at just six to seven vessels daily—versus the pre-war average of 125 to 140—amid a deepening US-Iran deadlock following the April 8 ceasefire, driving trader consensus to an 82.5% implied probability of no agreement for unrestricted access by May 31. On April 28, Iran's IRGC Navy deputy commander asserted absolute control over the waterway, mandating Persian communications and compliance for foreign ships, while the UN maritime agency rejected Tehran's proposed tolls the next day. US forces continue enforcing a blockade on Iran-linked vessels, turning back tankers, as Tehran demands its lifting before any reopening. Absent diplomatic breakthroughs or scheduled talks, entrenched positions signal prolonged restrictions.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if Iran publicly agrees to allow unrestricted commercial navigation of the Strait of Hormuz by May 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”.
Iran allowing unrestricted commercial navigation of the Strait of Hormuz refers to a public agreement by Iran that commercial vessels may transit the Strait of Hormuz without Iranian authorization/permission, payment of fees to Iran, or other Iran-imposed restrictions. A public agreement that all restrictions imposed on commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz by Iran as part of the US-Iran conflict which began on February 28, 2026, will be definitively lifted, without replacement by new restrictions, will qualify.
A qualifying agreement must clearly indicate that Iran will not impose restrictions on commercial transit through the Strait of Hormuz. General statements about the strait being “open”, de-escalation, security, increased transit in the Strait, or stability in the region, which do not clearly indicate that Iran will allow unrestricted commercial transit through the Strait of Hormuz, will not qualify.
An official pledge by Iran to allow unrestricted commercial navigation of the Strait of Hormuz will qualify for a “Yes” resolution whether as a unilateral announcement or part of an agreement with the U.S. or Israel.
Any agreement or pledge made before the resolution date of this market will qualify, regardless of if/when the agreement goes into effect.
An agreement by Iran to allow unrestricted commercial navigation of the Strait of Hormuz as a precondition of a more comprehensive peace process or deal will qualify, even if the agreement is not finalized or part of a formalized peace deal.
The primary resolution sources for this market will be official information from the government of Iran and a consensus of credible reporting.Shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remains severely restricted at just six to seven vessels daily—versus the pre-war average of 125 to 140—amid a deepening US-Iran deadlock following the April 8 ceasefire, driving trader consensus to an 82.5% implied probability of no agreement for unrestricted access by May 31.
