Top Artist in the US 2026 on Polymarket US
This market will settle to Yes if Lady Gaga is ranked the top artist in the US on Spotify in 2026. Outcome verified by Spotify. The relevant ranking is the 2026 edition of the Spotify Top Artists in the US ranking released as part of the annual Spotify Wrapped campaign (see past edition: https://newsroom.spotify.com/2025-12-03/wrapped-top-artists-songs-albums-podcasts-audiobooks/). This ranking will be used for resolution even if it is released before the end of calendar year 2026. Note: This market and these products have not been endorsed by Spotify.

Resting (maker) orders pay nothing; orders that take liquidity pay the fee. Formula: 9.5% × price × (1 − price) per share on orders that take liquidity (accounts under $10,000 of 30-day volume; 6.95% in a new account's first week and above $250,000). Break-even assumes you hold to settlement; trading out early pays the fee twice.
