Iran’s Defense Ministry said a significant portion of its missile capabilities remains intact during ongoing U.S.-led military operations. The probability of the Iranian regime falling by June 30 is now at 7.5% YES, down slightly from 8% a day ago.

Market reaction

Iran’s claim hasn’t moved the Iranian regime fall market much, which dipped only modestly. Daily volume is $35,587 in USDC. The largest price move was a 1-point spike, suggesting weak conviction in a regime collapse despite the ongoing military campaign.

The probability of Iran striking Israel by April 30 remains at 100% YES with only six days until resolution. Iran’s retained missile capability is consistent with the market’s certainty that military actions will continue in the immediate term.

Why it matters

The Iranian regime fall market trades $423,658 in face value daily but requires $16,830 to shift the odds by five points. That thickness means large volumes are needed to move prices, in contrast to the April 30 military action market, where odds are already at certainty and trading activity has dried up.

Iran holding part of its missile arsenal suggests the regime retains some military capacity, which reduces the probability of imminent regime change. At 7.5% YES, a bet on regime fall by June 30 pays $1 for a 7.5x return, but persistent military capability works against that thesis. Traders would need to see significant internal fracturing or a collapse in external defenses to justify the wager.

What to watch

Watch for Mojtaba Khamenei’s public appearances or any IRGC command changes. Either would be a direct signal of regime stability or instability and could move market odds quickly.
