10.0 or above earthquake before 2027?

The Planet Would Need a Bigger Fault

No magnitude 10 has ever been recorded, and the Earth may not have a fault long enough to make one. You are betting that geology breaks its own record by roughly 30x in two months.

The fine print (official resolution rules from Polymarket. Read them: this is where "impossible" bets get easy)

This market will resolve to β€œYes” if 1 or more earthquakes with a magnitude of 10.0 or higher occur anywhere on Earth between December 8, 2025 12:00 PM ET, and December 31, 2026, 11:59PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to β€œNo”. The resolution source for this market is the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Earthquake Hazards Program (https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/browse/significant.php#sigdef). If an earthquake of substantial size has occurred within this market's timeframe but not yet appeared on the resolution source, this market may remain open until January 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, or until the earthquake in question otherwise appears on the resolution source. If such an earthquake has not appeared on the resolution source by that date, another credible resolution source will be used. After a qualifying earthquake is registered, this market will remain open for 24 hours to account for any revisions to its recorded magnitude. After 24 hours, this market will resolve according to the latest provided data.
