The market resolves based on whether Machado holds the official position of leader of Venezuela as of the market end date. This reflects sustained interest in Venezuela's political direction, institutional evolution, and potential leadership transitions. Current trading volume of $11K and liquidity of $47K demonstrate active market interest in Venezuelan political developments, outcomes, and governance changes throughout the region.
