The rules clearly define the conditions for dissolution, but contain an important clause defining withdrawal: a member state is considered to have withdrawn as soon as it officially initiates withdrawal or notifies the European Council (such as triggering Article 50), even if the formal exit process has not concluded before the deadline. Official statements from the EU and member states serve as the primary source, though the resolver retains the discretion to rely on a consensus of credible reporting if necessary.

Resolution rules
This market will resolve to “Yes” if the European Union (EU) dissolves by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. The European Union will be considered to be dissolved if any of the following conditions are met: 1) More than half of the EU member states (as of market creation) formally withdraw from the EU. 2) An official treaty or agreement is adopted between all EU member states to repeal or nullify the Treaty on European Union or the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. 3) The European Union otherwise ceases to exist as a legal entity. EU member states will be considered to have withdrawn once they officially initiate their withdrawal and/or formally notify the European Council of their intention to withdraw, regardless of whether the withdrawal is finalized after this market’s timeframe. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the European Union and EU member states; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
Market explained

How it resolves
The market resolves to Yes if any of three dissolution conditions occur by December 31, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET: more than half of the EU member states (as of market creation) formally withdraw, an official agreement among all member states repeals or nullifies the Treaty on European Union or the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, or the EU otherwise ceases to exist as a legal entity. Member states count as withdrawn once they officially initiate withdrawal or formally notify the European Council, regardless of finalization timing.
