Token Buying and Selling

How to Buy Tokens

To buy tokens:

  1. Choose a market (cryptocurrency prediction or world event)

  2. Decide whether you want to buy YES or NO tokens

  3. Specify the amount of SOL you want to spend

  4. Confirm the transaction

The platform will calculate the number of tokens you receive based on the current bonding curve price.

How to Sell Tokens

To sell tokens:

  1. Select the market and token type (YES or NO) you want to sell

  2. Specify the number of tokens to burn

  3. Confirm the transaction

You'll receive SOL in return, with the amount determined by the current bonding curve price.

Impact on SOL Balance

Buying tokens decreases your SOL balance but increases your token balance. Selling tokens does the opposite, increasing your SOL balance while decreasing your token balance.

Market-Specific Considerations

  • Solana-based token markets: Consider current market trends and upcoming events on Solana that might impact the crypto asset's price or market cap.

  • World event markets: Evaluate the latest news and information related to the event before making your decision.

Tips for Token Trading

  1. Start small: If you're new to prediction markets, start with smaller amounts to get familiar with the platform.

  2. Monitor market sentiment: The current token prices can give you an idea of the market's prediction.

  3. Consider the timeline: Be aware of the market's resolution date when making your trades.

  4. Diversify: Consider participating in multiple markets to spread your risk.
