Clear answers to the rules that define TIDE.

During Flood, users can buy and sell the spot asset like a normal token.

Ebb opens the after-hours market. Users can queue bids and asks for the next session with an additional 5% premium, and take Above or Below positions on the next opening price.

The opening auction selects the price that maximizes total executable volume. Every matched opening order executes at that same clearing price.

YES wins when the official open is at least 1% above the previous close. NO wins at least 1% below. Inside that band, both sides redeem at half collateral.

Revenue from after-hours orders and prediction-market trades is distributed to spot holders as rewards.

TIDE

Trade the full cycle.

Spot during Flood. Opening orders and prediction positions during Ebb. One official price at Slack.
