  Estimated: On October 21, 2026 Polymarket^[1][2] priced a qualifying Gemini Pro release at 1.55% by October 23, 2.35% by October 31, 13% by November 30 and 13% by December 31, on US$1,660,393.97 event volume. The ladder is now monotonic. Its largest remaining listed interval is November 1–30 (10.65 percentage points); November 1 marks that interval’s estimated beginning. All deadlines remain below 50%, so this is a weak timing estimate rather than an official release date.
