If ByteDance sells TikTok (using any type of corporate transaction), and it's addictive algorithm is included in the sale (not just the brand name), this market will resolve YES. If TikTok is sold but the algorithm isn't included, resolves NO. I'll use reputable media reports to help me resolve this market.
If TikTok is no longer required to be sold, either because the law was overturned on final appeal, or they decided to shut down the app in the U.S. instead, resolves N/A and traders get their mana back. Market close date will be extended if necessary.
