Summary

  • $60 or above was the key threshold for the July 18, 2026 HYPE event contract, with the listed contract trading at 97 cents ahead of resolution.
  • CF Benchmarks' Real Time Index determines the outcome, using 60 prices collected in the final minute before the 11 p.m. EDT expiration and averaging them into the official value.
  • Winning contracts pay $1 each, and Robinhood said payouts usually arrive within 1 hour after the event resolves.
  • The contract trades nearly around the clock—24 hours a day except Thursday from 3 a.m. to 5 a.m. ET—as part of Robinhood's broader crypto event-contract lineup.
