This tutorial is now obsolete; no need to hold SOL or juggle between SOL and SOL-usdc to use the exchange anymore. Any transaction fees are just paid for by the node operator.

There are no book orders; OpenPredict uses an automated market maker, and you can view the solana contract code inside the git repo here. We use constant function market makers, like manifold and uniswap. Curious to know if there's any benefit in selecting one vs the other, though.

Omen.eth appears to me to be offline; the other ones linked under azuro.org seem to be exclusively for sports betting and don't allow you to create markets. Augur also apears to have been abandoned & turned off as well, for some time; at the very least I and certain other users are getting the "Augur is not supported in your region" notification no matter which IP address we attempt to use, and the subreddit talks about it being dead, etc.

Augur was a total failboat. Almost all of these projects couple the market protocol to the resolution protocol, which is stupid, especially if you are Augur and your ideas about making resolution protocols are really dumb.

Which ones in particular were you referring to? I meant Ethereum mainnet specifically because the transaction fees are 100,000x what you pay on Solana.

Well there's a bunch built in top of gnosis, such as https://azuro.org/ and https://omen.eth Then there's Augur. Of course a bunch of markets got trashed from polymarket's regulatory capture, but there still seems to be many.

My current understanding is that there aren't any. We have looked into all the ones that claim to do this and they are either currently offline, or never released, or require paying ETH's gas prices, or don't provide a public interface for trading, etc. etc.

2agrippa
Your understanding is correct. I built one which is currently offline, I'll be in touch soon.

I mean yes, most of them are on ethereum and therefore require paying gas. Sl the difference is this one doesn't require paying gas? Are there no transaction fees on Solana?

For all of the people who like these odds, I've created a secondary prediction market about this bet, so you don't have to try to send Eliezer money.
