Trump’s claims of active negotiations with Iran have been denied by Iranian officials, with US-Iran diplomatic meeting odds sitting below 4% YES. The lack of direct engagement and mutual distrust is pulling down the probability of Trump agreeing to Iranian demands this month as well.

Odds for no US-Iran diplomatic meeting by June 30 hold at 3.7% YES. The market is thin, trading just $400 in actual USDC daily, but the distrust between both sides is clearly priced in. A diplomatic breakthrough looks unlikely without a major shift in US or Iranian concessions.

The Trump agreement to Iranian oil sanction relief in April market dropped to 37.5% YES, down from 62% yesterday. This market trades $6,018 in actual USDC daily, showing more genuine interest. The 6-point drop at 9:40 PM suggests traders are recalibrating expectations after continued diplomatic stalemates.

The Iran uranium enrichment agreement market fell to 35.5% YES, down from 50% yesterday. A YES share at 28¢ still pays $1 if resolved, a 3.6x return. The odds reflect skepticism about a resolution within the next 12 days, given no direct talks and entrenched positions on both sides.

The Axios report and Iranian denials point to deep mistrust that complicates any diplomatic resolution. Traders should watch for White House statements or signals from Iranian officials that could move these markets. Any confirmation of upcoming talks or changes in negotiating stances would likely cause sharp repricing.
