Myriad Markets is a blockchain-based prediction market platform where users trade on real-world events using stablecoins and on-chain infrastructure.

Unlike platforms that simplify or abstract the trading layer, Myriad is built directly on EVM smart contracts, combining:

non-custodial wallets
automated market makers (AMMs)
and a newly introduced order book system

This makes it closer to a DeFi trading protocol for prediction markets than a traditional web platform.

What Is Myriad?

Myriad is a prediction market protocol where users buy and sell outcome shares tied to real-world events. Each market represents a question, and each outcome is priced between $0 and $1.

$0.60 = 60% implied probability
$0.25 = 25% probability
$0.83 = 83% probability

When the market resolves:

winning shares settle at $1
losing shares settle at $0

What makes Myriad different is where and how this happens:

trades are executed on-chain
funds are held in your wallet or smart contracts
the protocol, not the platform, handles settlement

How Trading Works on Myriad

Myriad combines two trading systems depending on the market:

Automated Market Maker (AMM)

Many markets use an AMM model.

prices adjust automatically as users trade
liquidity is always available
price curves are smoother and predictable

A key property:

→ the sum of all outcome prices always equals $1

This ensures consistent probability distribution across outcomes.

Order Book (New System)

Myriad has also introduced an order book for certain markets.

users can place limit orders
trades match between participants
tighter spreads and more control over execution

This brings Myriad closer to traditional exchange mechanics while still remaining on-chain.

Deposits, Wallets, and Funds

Myriad uses a non-custodial wallet system powered by Thirdweb.

That means:

funds are never held by the platform
assets stay in your wallet or smart contracts
you control your private keys

Users can fund accounts in several ways:

transfer USD1 (stablecoin) on BNB Smart Chain
deposit crypto assets
use fiat onramps (Apple Pay, cards, etc. via MoonPay)

Withdrawals are straightforward:

funds can be sent to any compatible wallet
assets are typically withdrawn as USD1 stablecoin

This setup combines DeFi control with consumer-friendly onboarding.

Fees and Market Economics

Trading on Myriad includes:

market fees (typically 0%–2% on buys)
a small fixed fee (~$0.0085) for gas

Fees serve multiple purposes:

rewarding liquidity providers
generating revenue for the protocol
enabling revenue sharing with builders

This creates an ecosystem where developers and integrators can monetize usage.

MYR Points and Incentives

Myriad adds a second layer of incentives through MYR Points.

Points are distributed weekly based on:

trading volume
open positions
liquidity provision
referrals

Higher rewards are given for:

placing limit orders near the midpoint
generating maker volume
participating in boosted “alpha markets”

This system encourages:

deeper liquidity
consistent participation
competitive trading behavior

What Makes Myriad Different

Myriad stands out because it combines DeFi infrastructure with prediction markets, but goes further in a few key areas:

1. Hybrid Trading Model

AMM for accessibility
Order book for precision

Few platforms support both in the same ecosystem.

2. Non-Custodial by Design

users retain full control of funds
no centralized custody risk
direct interaction with smart contracts

3. Built for Builders

Myriad is designed to be integrated, not just used.

API + SDK + CLI stack
revenue sharing for integrations
support for AI agents and automation

Understanding Myriad Data

Myriad generates rich, on-chain market data, including:

real-time probability updates
trading volume and liquidity
order book depth (where applicable)
historical price movement
market resolution data

Because trading is tied to real capital and on-chain execution, the data reflects:

actual financial positioning
liquidity-driven price movement
interaction between AMM and order book dynamics

This makes it highly valuable for:

quantitative analysis
strategy development
market efficiency research

The Challenge of Working With Myriad Data

Despite its power, Myriad data is not easy to use directly.

Developers need to:

interact with blockchain data
decode smart contract events
track multiple trading systems (AMM + order book)
normalize formats across markets

This creates significant engineering overhead.

Using FinFeedAPI for Myriad Data

FinFeedAPI simplifies access to Myriad by providing a structured data layer.

Instead of working with raw on-chain data, you get:

normalized probability time series
structured market and contract data
historical datasets
real-time updates

This allows you to:

skip blockchain-level complexity
integrate faster
focus on modeling and analysis

Next Steps

If you're working with Myriad, the main challenge isn’t accessing markets—it’s turning on-chain trading data into structured, usable signals.

FinFeedAPI provides a production-ready way to work with Myriad data. That includes normalized probability time series, market structures, liquidity insights, and historical data all in a consistent format.

Instead of managing smart contracts, APIs, and pipelines, you can focus on building models, systems, and applications on top of prediction markets.
