Musk Tweet Count Bucket at 2.6% as Window Nears Close

Polymarket traders now see only a 3 percent chance Musk will post 220 to 239 tweets this week.

Polymarket traders price just a 2.6% chance that Elon Musk will post between 220 and 239 tweets on X during the July 24-31 counting window, a sharp decline of 32.9 points in the last 24 hours. The market, which closes at 4:00 PM ET on July 31, has seen $128,541 in volume, with the low probability reflecting a significant divergence from adjacent buckets. The 240-259 range, for instance, traded at 15% earlier in the week, while 200-219 also appeared more plausible in secondary market summaries, according to data from the third-party tracker xtracker.polymarket.com.

The resolution relies on a tracker-defined count of Musk’s main-feed posts, quote posts, and reposts, excluding replies, which have historically accounted for a large share of his activity. Deleted posts still count if captured by the tracker within roughly five minutes, a rule that could affect the final tally if Musk deletes a burst of late-week posts. The counting window runs from 12:00 PM ET on July 24 to 12:00 PM ET on July 31, meaning final data may not be available immediately after the market closes.

The low probability for the 220-239 bucket suggests that Musk’s posting pace has either fallen short of or exceeded this range during the window. Given the 24-hour decline of 32.9 points, traders appear to have shifted confidence toward higher or lower counts, possibly driven by a late-week surge or slump in activity. The 220-239 bucket now stands as a contrarian bet, with the sharp move indicating that most liquidity has flowed to adjacent ranges.

Analysts note that the tracker’s sensitivity to timing and deletions could create last-minute volatility, especially if Musk posts a flurry of reposts or quote posts in the final hours. The market’s structure—counting only non-reply posts—means that any shift in Musk’s posting strategy, such as a focus on replies or a quiet period, could push the final count away from the 220-239 range. With the window closing, traders are watching the tracker’s real-time feed for any signs of a late burst.
