A formal cease-fire will count, as long as it remains substantially in effect at the resolution time. Minor violations won’t count against this as long as both sides and the international media agree it is still substantially in effect. An informal cease-fire will count if it involves at least one month without significant military action and the international media dubs it a de facto cease fire. A cease-fire which is signed but then substantially broken before 1/1/25 will not count.

Market will resolve according to Scott Alexander’s judgment, as given through future posts on Astral Codex Ten, or my judgment if Scott has not expressed a judgment before 1/31/25.
