I don't think it needs to be issued on a blockchain

How about this:

Resolution Criteria:

This market will resolve to YES if, on or before December 31, 2025, at 11:59 PM PST, an official U.S. government body (such as the U.S. Treasury or the Federal Reserve) publicly confirms the issuance of “BitBonds” or a new, non-traditional format of U.S. government bonds designed to modernize access, ownership, or settlement.

To qualify as issuance: • The bonds must be a new form of U.S. government debt instrument, distinct from traditional Treasury bills, notes, or bonds. • The product must be framed or widely understood as an effort to modernize or digitally enhance the issuance or trading of U.S. debt. • The term “BitBond” does not need to be used explicitly, as long as the instrument is clearly part of a government initiative to innovate bond issuance.

Use of blockchain, tokenization, or digital settlement infrastructure is optional, not required.

This market will resolve to NO if: • No such new format of bond is issued by the U.S. government by the deadline. • Only proposals, working groups, or test runs occur without an official issuance. • Any such bond-like product is issued solely by private institutions or international bodies, without direct U.S. government involvement.

Primary Sources: • Official announcements from treasury.gov, federalreserve.gov, or whitehouse.gov. • Coverage by credible media sources (e.g., Bloomberg, Reuters, WSJ) that cite direct confirmation or official statements.

Ambiguity Clause: If there is uncertainty about whether the issuance qualifies, resolution will be based on the intent and clarity of the official communication, aligned with the spirit of this market.
