DeFi Rate ranks the championship winner market 12th on its top 50 board and lists it as surging at 3.2 times its daily average. James rose from 5 percent to 38 percent over the last seven days, with Ryan Gerard next at 6.6 cents.
Benjamin James was priced at 38 cents in Kalshi’s World Wide Technology Championship winner market, according to DeFi Rate’s Nov 6, 2026 update at 3:45 PM ET. The market recorded 529,000 dollars in trading over 24 hours.
A sharp seven-day shift
DeFi Rate lists James’s implied probability as rising from 5 percent to 38 percent over the last seven days. That marks a substantial repricing within the championship winner market.
Ryan Gerard was next at 6.6 cents, according to DeFi Rate. The reported prices put a wide gap between James and the next-listed contender, though James’s implied probability remained below 50 percent.
Activity rises above its daily average
The championship winner market ranked 12th on DeFi Rate’s top 50 board. The outlet also classified it as surging, with activity at 3.2 times its daily average.
The figures show increased trading alongside James’s price rise. The supplied summary does not identify what drove either change or provide further details about the other contenders.
What it means for prediction markets
- James’s move from 5 percent to 38 percent over seven days represents a sizable shift in market expectations, not a confirmed tournament outcome.
- Gerard’s 6.6-cent price provides a comparison with the next-listed contender, but the summary does not include the full field’s pricing.
- The 529,000 dollars traded in 24 hours and activity at 3.2 times the daily average indicate elevated participation; neither figure alone establishes why prices changed.
