## What it is

Myriad is an on-chain event-market venue that runs the same product across four chains. A
market is a set of outcome shares priced between 0 and 1; the winning share settles at 1 and
the rest at 0, and you can sell out of a position at any time while the market is open.

The settlement token depends on where the market lives: USD1 or USDT on BNB Smart Chain, USDC.e
on Abstract, USDC on Linea, and PTS — a season points token, not a stablecoin — on Celo and
Abstract. That last one matters more than it looks. Of the 70 open markets returned by the
public markets API on 19 September 2026, 31 were denominated in PTS, so a reader who assumes
every Myriad market pays out in dollars will be wrong about nearly half of the listing. Check the
token on the market before taking a position in it.

Two trading models exist. Every market returned by the public API on that date was priced by
the **AMM**, where the outcome prices always sum to 1 and move as people buy and sell. A
**central limit order book** also exists — its own contracts are deployed on BNB Smart Chain,
with its own API, WebSocket stream and client libraries — and it is the model behind the venue's
in-play markets. Perpetual sentiment markets are a third shape: they never resolve, and they
carry no trading fee.

Funding is non-custodial: an embedded wallet is created for you, and the docs are explicit that
balances sit in that wallet or in the market contract rather than with Myriad. Deposits arrive
by crypto transfer from 3 USD, or by card or Apple Pay from 20 USD through MoonPay, which runs
its own checks.

## Availability

The interface is published by **Myriad Foundation**, a Cayman Islands corporation, under terms
of use last updated **13 January 2026**. Those terms bar trading by anyone residing in or
associated with a named list of prohibited territories:

> Bahamas, Botswana, British Virgin Islands, Cambodia, Cayman Islands, North Korea, France,
> Iran, Libya, Malta, Ontario (CA), Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Singapore, Switzerland, Trinidad and
> Tobago, United States of America, Zimbabwe.

Two things follow that a summary usually drops. The list bans several wealthy markets a reader
might assume are fine — France, Malta, Singapore and Switzerland — and it bans the Cayman
Islands, where the operator itself is registered. Using a VPN to get round any of it is
prohibited in the same section.

There is no KYC step in the venue's own flow: the account is a wallet, and the terms carry
sanctions representations rather than an identity check. Funding by card goes through a payment
provider that has its own requirements.

## Pricing

Fees are set per market rather than by a single schedule, which means the number on the market
you are looking at is the only one that counts.

- **AMM markets** carry a fee of 0% to 2% on buys, per the documentation. Reading the fee field
  on every open market through the public API on 19 September 2026: of the 39 open markets
  denominated in a stablecoin, 32 charged **1% on a buy and nothing on a sell**, and 7 charged
  nothing at all. Every PTS market charged nothing.
- **Order-book markets** charge takers only. The fee follows a curve that peaks at **1.5% at the
  50-cent midpoint** and falls linearly to zero at the extremes — 0.75% at 25 cents, 0.30% at 10
  cents. Makers pay nothing and receive the taker fee back as a rebate.
- **Perpetual sentiment markets** carry no trading fee at all — all six open on 19 September 2026
  charged zero on both sides.
- The app adds a flat **0.0085 USD per transaction** to cover blockchain gas.

All of those percentages are charged on the amount you put in, not on the $1 a winning share
pays. The 0.5% in this card's fee field is the common 1% AMM buy fee converted to that basis: at
the 50-cent midpoint it costs half a cent a share, or 0.5% of the payout. The order book's 1.5%
peak works out at 0.75% on the same basis.

Fees are split between liquidity providers, Myriad Protocol and third-party builders who embed
the markets, which is also why they vary by market.

## Markets & resolution

The listing covers crypto prices, football and esports fixtures, US and international politics,
economic releases, company IPOs and entertainment. Three shapes are worth knowing: in-play
markets stay open while the event runs, HIT markets have no expiry and resolve whenever an
outcome is observed, and negative-risk category markets group mutually exclusive outcomes.

Resolution is entirely the operator's. Each market carries a Rules section naming the
resolution source — the API returns it as a URL, and on the markets sampled it pointed at
places like a league's results site, a wire service or the venue's own account. The Myriad team
checks that source and resolves, typically within minutes of expiry and up to 48 hours for
events that take longer to confirm.

There is no oracle vote, no dispute bond and no appeal. A market that cannot be resolved fairly
is voided, and a voided market returns your position at its **market value at the moment of
cancellation** — which can be more or less than you paid, depending on where the price was
standing.

## Integrations

There is a public REST API (`api-v2.myriadprotocol.com`) and a WebSocket stream carrying order
book, trade, price and position updates. Read access is open; an API key raising the rate limit
is issued by request. Client libraries are published for JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, Python,
Dart, Swift and Java, and a first-party CLI can run an MCP server for agent-driven trading.
Builders who embed Myriad markets in their own product take a share of the fees.

## Limitations

- **No US, France, Malta, Singapore, Switzerland or Ontario** under the current terms.
- **The operator is the only resolution authority.** Nothing on this venue is decided by an
  oracle vote or a token-holder dispute, and there is no published appeal.
- **Nearly half the open listing is points, not money.** PTS markets look identical to stablecoin
  markets in the interface.
- **Fees vary market by market** between 0% and 2%, so a number quoted anywhere — including this
  card — is a sample and not a schedule.
- **Liquidity is thin outside the headline markets.** Volume on the open Linea market we sampled
  was under 10,000 USDC, against several million on the featured BNB Chain markets.
- **Nobody here has funded an account.** Everything above comes from the venue's documentation,
  terms and public API on 19 September 2026.

## FAQ

### Can I use Myriad from the United States?

No. The terms of use dated 13 January 2026 list the United States of America among the prohibited territories for trading, together with France, Malta, Singapore, Switzerland, the Cayman Islands and Ontario, among others. Using a VPN to get round the list is prohibited by the same section.

### What does a trade cost on Myriad?

AMM markets carry a fee of 0% to 2% on buys, set per market. Of the open stablecoin markets listed through the public API on 19 September 2026, 32 of 39 charged 1% on a buy and none charged anything on a sell. The app adds a flat 0.0085 USD per transaction to cover gas.

### Which chain and which token is a Myriad market settled in?

It depends on the market. BNB Smart Chain markets settle in USD1 or USDT, Abstract markets in USDC.e, Linea markets in USDC, and a large share of open markets are denominated in PTS season points rather than in a stablecoin at all.

### Who resolves a Myriad market, and can the resolution be disputed?

The Myriad team resolves every market against the source named in its rules — usually within minutes of expiry, up to 48 hours for slower events. There is no oracle vote and no on-chain dispute process. A market that cannot be resolved fairly is voided, and positions are returned at their market value at the time of cancellation.

## Background

- [How money gets back out](https://predictionmarkets.tools/guides/how-money-gets-out.md) — The rail that funded an account is usually not the rail that empties it. Same-source rules, clearing holds, jurisdiction locks, and what a bridge takes.
- [What a prediction market is, and how one works](https://predictionmarkets.tools/guides/what-a-prediction-market-is.md) — A contract that pays one dollar if a stated event happens. What you buy, who takes the other side, who decides, and when the cents stop meaning a probability.
- [Where the liquidity comes from, and who is on the other side](https://predictionmarkets.tools/guides/where-liquidity-comes-from.md) — Order book, automated market maker or pool — what each means for the price you get, and why the number on a thin market is not a probability.
