Stacks Market Skill

Trade prediction markets on stacksmarket.app via the on-chain contract

SP3N5CN0PE7YRRP29X7K9XG22BT861BRS5BN8HFFA.market-factory-v18-bias
.

  • Market Discovery — List and search prediction markets via REST API with filters for status, category, and featured flag.
  • Price Quoting — Get real-time LMSR prices for YES/NO shares via on-chain read-only calls before committing funds.
  • Trading — Buy YES or NO shares with slippage protection (
    buy-yes-auto
    ,
    buy-no-auto
    ). Sell with minimum proceeds guard (
    sell-yes-auto
    ,
    sell-no-auto
    ).
  • Redemption — Redeem winning shares after market resolution (1 share = 1 STX for winners).
  • Position Tracking — Check your YES and NO share balances in any market.

All operations are mainnet-only. Write operations (buy-yes, buy-no, sell-yes, sell-no, redeem) require an unlocked wallet (use

bun run wallet/wallet.ts unlock
first).

Notes

  • All operations are mainnet-only. Calls on testnet will return an error.
  • Write operations require an unlocked wallet (use
    bun run wallet/wallet.ts unlock
    first).
  • Always run
    quote-buy
    or
    quote-sell
    before trading to verify costs and set slippage bounds.
  • Market IDs are epoch millisecond timestamps (e.g.,
    1771853629839
    ), not MongoDB
    _id
    .
  • The
    get-market
    subcommand takes MongoDB
    _id
    (e.g.,
    699c573ea7bb5ad25fee68a0
    ), not
    marketId
    .
  • Write operations MUST use
    PostConditionMode.Allow
    — the contract moves STX internally (sender → pool → fee wallets) and default post-conditions block this.
  • isActive
    can be
    true
    even after
    endDate
    passes — the contract owner must manually resolve. Always check
    isResolved
    and compare time.
  • Winning shares pay 1 STX each on redemption; losing shares pay nothing. Burns all shares.
  • Gas fees are approximately 0.05–0.1 STX per transaction, in addition to the share cost.
  • LMSR pricing: cost of shares follows a logarithmic curve — buying more shares in one direction increases price. Get a fresh quote immediately before submitting a buy.
