Getting Started

Quickstart

The shortest path through the protocol: deposit collateral, sign orders, match, execute, resolve, settle, and claim.

Happy path

1

Deposit

Users deposit collateral into the Market Vault before their orders can be eligible for matching.

2

Sign

Users sign limit orders that authorize a specific market, side, price, quantity, expiration, and nonce.

3

Match

The off-chain Matching Engine matches compatible Buy and Sell orders under fill-or-none MVP rules.

4

Execute

A trusted Trade Execution authority records the Trade on-chain and updates Long and Short Positions.

5

Resolve

A Resolver submits the observed outcome using the Market's declared Resolution Source.

6

Claim

Settlement makes payouts available and users claim what their Positions earned.
