Rumors of a coup attempt in Iran have sent the ceasefire-by-April-30 market to 16% YES, down from 32% yesterday. The Iranian regime fall by April 30 sits at 0.9% YES, while the June 30 regime fall contract trades at 8.5% YES.
The reported coup attempt points to factional divides in Tehran between the IRGC and moderates. The April 30 ceasefire market has dropped by half in a day, with just 9 days left on the contract. Traders are pricing in very low odds of a diplomatic resolution while internal instability is escalating.
In the Iranian regime fall market, the gap between the April 30 and June 30 contracts tells the story. The 8.5% YES for June 30 implies traders see a possible catalyst within two months, but the April 30 sub-market at 0.9% shows almost no one expects a regime collapse this week.
Daily volume in the ceasefire market is $68,607 in USDC. The regime fall market is thinner at $33,064 in daily USDC, making it vulnerable to large order swings. A $4,074 buy can move ceasefire odds by 5 points.
The coup rumor itself comes from a tier-3 outlet, so it’s more noise than signal. A YES share in the ceasefire market at 16¢ pays $1 if resolved, but that requires imminent diplomatic progress with 9 days on the clock. The regime fall contract, priced at 8.5¢, pays 11.8x if the regime collapses by June 30.
Watch for signs of IRGC power consolidation or defections, any public actions by the Assembly of Experts, and changes in Mojtaba Khamenei’s public profile, which could signal shifts in succession dynamics.
