Elbaf Megathread (Answers will resolve as they occur)
💡 What the odds say
Most likely: Loki face reveal at about a 100% chance — almost certain.
The field is extremely concentrated at the top, with three candidates at 100% and a fourth at 81%, but the middle tier (54–65%) shows real competition and potential for shifts; no clear catalyst recently explains the current odds.
📊 Base rate: In prediction markets for manga arc events, front-runners above 80% often resolve correctly, but mid-range bets (50–70%) historically see significant movement as new chapters drop.
What's driving it
- • No recent headlines are available, so the current odds likely reflect accumulated fan theories and narrative patterns from the Elbaf arc so far.
- • The 100% leaders (Loki face reveal, Shanks backstory with Garling, Imu face reveal, other holy knights) are considered near-certain because they are heavily foreshadowed in the manga.
- • Usopp powerup at 81% is driven by his long-standing role in Elbaf and the need for a power boost, but no new chapter has confirmed it.
- • Dragon finally makes a move at 54% is the most uncertain among the top, as his inaction is a running plot point with no recent catalyst.
Why the front-runners lead
- • Loki face reveal, Shanks backstory with Garling, Imu face reveal, and other holy knights are all at 100% because they are explicitly set up by Oda and considered inevitable by the community.
- • Usopp powerup at 81% benefits from Elbaf being his thematic arc (giants, sniping) and the narrative need for him to grow stronger.
- • The top four candidates together sum to 300%, indicating near-unanimous belief in these outcomes among traders.
Why it's still open
- • The field is open for candidates like 'Man marked by flames' (65%) and 'Luffy finds out about Bartolomeo' (65%), which could shift if new chapters reveal alternative plot directions.
- • Dragon finally makes a move at 54% could be overtaken by a sudden twist, such as a focus on other Revolutionary Army members instead.
- • Any candidate below 50% (e.g., 'Other holy knights' is already at 100%, but others like 'Usopp powerup' could drop if a chapter shows him failing or getting a different role).
What to watch
- • Next manga chapter release (likely weekly): could confirm or deny any of the 54–81% candidates, moving them sharply toward 100% or down to 0%.
- • Official announcement of a One Piece break or arc end: would compress the timeline, making lower-probability events less likely and solidifying front-runners.
- • Leaked spoilers for upcoming chapters: often cause rapid, short-term shifts in mid-range bets like Dragon's move or the man marked by flames.

How it resolves
Resolved by whoever created the market, at their discretion per the question's description. It's play-money (Mana) and not tied to an official source — treat it as a community forecast.
Resolution criteria
Answers will resolve as they occur and by the end of the elbaf arc, any events that don't occur will resolve to "No"
ⓘ A market settles under its own written rules, which can lag what looks decided in the news — so the price may not move to 100% the moment an outcome seems obvious.

Will over 100,000 people be conceived with the help of advanced embryo selection techniques by 2030?
The market sees advanced embryo selection as still niche and ethically fraught, but recent coverage of genetic optimization startups and IVF's expanding role in family planning suggests the technology is gaining momentum, making the 100,000-conception threshold plausible if regulatory and adoption barriers fall.
