Polymarket is pricing a 20% chance that the AI bubble bursts by the end of 2026, on a market that has drawn nearly $2.9 million in volume.
The market resolves to “yes” only if enough downturn signals hit within a 90-day window, including a 50% drawdown in Nvidia, a 40% drawdown in SOXX, bankruptcy or acquisition of OpenAI, H100 rental prices at $1 or below for five straight days, or a 50% collapse in another major AI hardware supplier.
The setup shows how aggressively traders are still pricing the resilience of the AI boom, even as capex expectations keep rising.
