Permissionless Market Creation

Anyone can create and fund share markets on Panana. Thereโ€™s no approval step โ€” a market goes live automatically once its minimum liquidity is provided.

Flow: Create โ†’ Provide โ†’ Tradeโ€‹

  1. Create โ€“ Write a clear prediction question, define category, end time, resolution rules, and sources. Our AI wil support you!
  2. Provide โ€“ Add liquidity yourself or let others fund the market. You can set a minimum liquidity requirement (e.g. 2 USD or higher).
  3. Trade โ€“ Once the total liquidity meets the minimum, the market is live and trading begins.

Markets are only tradable once they reach their minimum liquidity target. This ensures thereโ€™s enough depth for fair trading and accurate pricing.

Funding Logicโ€‹

There are two main paths to make a market live:

1. Self-Funded Marketsโ€‹

If you add the full liquidity during creation:

  • The market goes live instantly.
  • You earn both creator fees and LP fees from trading volume.
  • You can also take the first AMM price at 0.5, giving you an early position advantage.

2. Community-Funded Marketsโ€‹

If you add only partial or no liquidity:

  • The market enters a Funding phase.
  • Other liquidity providers (LPs) can add funds until the minimum is reached.
  • If LPs consider the market โ€œgood,โ€ theyโ€™ll fund it to earn LP fees.
  • If no one funds it, the market never goes live.

This system naturally filters for high-quality markets that others find worth funding.

What Makes a Good Marketโ€‹

A well-structured market attracts liquidity, trading, and discussion. Consider the following points:

  • Unique โ€“ Not a duplicate or near-duplicate of an existing market.
  • Clear and unambiguous โ€“ One specific event, no combined conditions (AND/OR).
  • Verifiable โ€“ Includes a clear, public primary source and a fallback.
  • Sufficient duration โ€“ Enough time before the end date for discovery and trading.
  • Controversial or uncertain โ€“ Topics with real debate and attention drive volume.
  • Defined edge cases โ€“ Clarify what happens if events are delayed, canceled, or partially occur.
  • Neutral wording โ€“ Avoid bias or loaded phrasing.
  • Public data โ€“ Results must be verifiable by anyone.

Resolution Rulesโ€‹

Keep resolution rules short and precise. They should state:

  • What counts as Yes and No.
  • The deadline for the event to occur.
  • The primary and fallback sources for verification.
  • How delays or cancellations are handled.

Example:

โ€œResolves to Yes if the official U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports CPI inflation above 4% for October 2025 by November 15, 2025. Primary source: BLS.gov. Fallback: Bloomberg or Reuters.โ€

Roles and Incentivesโ€‹

  • Creators Earn creator fees on all trades. If you self-fund, you also earn LP fees and can buy first at 0.5.

  • Liquidity Providers (LPs) Earn LP fees proportional to your share of liquidity in active markets. Fund markets you believe will trade well.

  • Traders Trade shares to express opinions, hedge, or speculate. Traders drive market volume and fees.

Common Pitfallsโ€‹

Avoid these to ensure your market gets funded and traded:

  • Duplicate or too-similar questions.
  • Vague or subjective wording.
  • Timelines that are too short for discovery.
  • Missing or weak resolution sources.
  • Multi-condition (โ€œif A and Bโ€) questions.
  • Topics with limited interest or unverifiable outcomes.

By following these principles, your market will have a higher chance of being funded, traded, and profitable โ€” for you and for the liquidity providers who believe in it.
