This market will resolve to “Yes” if, according to the ISW map, Russia captures the entirety of Kupiansk, Kharkiv Oblast, (49.713460° N, 37.614763° E) between market creation and the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Kupiansk will be considered captured if the entirety of the municipality is shaded under a below specified layer on the ISW map (https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/36a7f6a6f5a9448496de641cf64bd375) by the resolution date. Otherwise, the market will resolve to “No”. The boundaries of the municipality are those shown under the “Ukrainian Settlements” layer on the ISW map. If all area within the municipality is shaded under a qualifying layer, however, the shading does not precisely match up with the border such that there is a tiny amount of unshaded area along the border of the municipality, this will still qualify for a "Yes" resolution. For the purpose of this market, areas separated from the main municipality through a darker grey line, such as in the southeast of Kupiansk (https://polymarket-upload.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/h-b99a52275d.png), will not count towards the municipality. For any change on the ISW map to qualify for this market’s resolution, the relevant shading must persist through the next full ISW daily update cycle. If ISW skips a day, shading must persist until the next finalized ISW update is published, regardless of the date. Any continuous shading under the following layers will qualify: - Assessed Russian-Controlled Terrain - Assessed Russian Advances Shading under the following layers will not qualify: - Assessed Russian Infiltration Areas - Claimed Russian Territory Once a qualifying condition is met, any subsequent loss of control will not be considered towards the resolution of this market. If Russia comes into control of the specified territory as a result of a negotiated settlement, this will qualify for a 'Yes' resolution, regardless of whether it is shaded under a qualifying layer on the ISW map. However, an announcement of a negotiated settlement that gives Russia de jure control will not qualify. Actual control must be established. Kupiansk Location: https://polymarket-upload.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/Kupiansk+location.jpeg The primary resolution source for this market will be the ISW Ukraine map. If the ISW map is rendered unavailable, information from DeepStateMap (https://deepstatemap.live/) may be used. If information from both the ISW and DeepStateMap are rendered permanently unavailable, a consensus of credible reporting may be used. Note: Any temporary glitches or errors in the map will not be considered.

Several individuals listed on the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) "People" page have direct and significant connections to the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC), particularly through its Board of Directors and specialized fellowships. While ISW operates as an independent, non-partisan think tank, its leadership structure is deeply intertwined with the U.S. national security establishment. The presence of a former CIA Director (Petraeus), a former Army Intelligence officer (Gilmore), and executives from a top-tier intelligence contractor (CACI) on its Board of Directors ensures that the organization maintains strong, direct ties to the U.S. Intelligence Community.

Unfortunately Polymarket uses ISW maps, which are heavily biased towards the Western intelligence community. It is in that way similar to Radio Free Europe. Institute for the Study of War is founded by Kimberly Ellen Kagan who is married to Frederick Kagan. Kimberly and Frederick Kagan have cultivated close ties to the Defence Department. Frederick's brother Robert Kagan’s wife, Victoria Nuland, is the state department official who very publicly supported Ukraine’s 2014 Maidan Revolution—the overthrow of pro-Russia President Viktor Yanukovych, which led Russia to seize Crimea and give military support to secessionist rebels in the Donbass.

as87287 Jan 27
According to Russia, Kupyansk was captured in December 2025. What about the map?
ThePredict0r Jan 27
Even pro-Russia sources are saying neither side has the manpower to establish control over the entire town.

By sources, do you mean fake Russian propaganda? According to their sources, they have already taken over half of Europe and Alaska. Better sell me some more “NO.”

With only about 60 Russians left in the basements and the supply lines cut off, I don't see how they take the whole city by next month unless they literally level it with glide bombs first.

Price discovery on this is lagging behind the whale flow. Significant alpha if you track the top holders.

Pupsikov Dec 9
Theres a thing called, ability to think logically, if the troops were nearby would you think they'd come out on rooftops dancing with colourful flags for a few minutes if a drone could drop anytime? Riskig their own lives for a simple celebration?
Pupsikov Dec 9
Do you even believe what you say? They're outnumbered 1 to 11, which is a conservative approach and they're taking land back?

Can you show me even one video with fascist flags in the western part of the city?
0x4382aBB3393AC62f76cD1d363670D10b684C861B-1763854631711 Dec 5
Putin told you that Kyiv is in 3 days, and you still think that Russian troops are near Kiev.
0x4382aBB3393AC62f76cD1d363670D10b684C861B-1763854631711 Dec 5
How do you know reality?
DumplingBMF Dec 4
What geo were there in the western part of the city?
0x366717f90136C6740edC1c3d977A2CC40982A875-1759154502408 Dec 4
Or maybe on the geolocated data instead? that shows Russians waving flags all over the city? Or should we just ignore both reality and the statements confirming said reality instead?
Hexxxagon Dec 3
so Putin's a better ground truth in your oppinion
