USDT deposited to your walletFor a CANCELLED market whose outcome was voided, holders are refunded USDT proportionally.
#How much you receive
For a binary market (YES / NO):
| Holding | Settlement |
|---|---|
| 1 winning share | 1 USDT |
| 1 losing share | 0 USDT |
| Equal amounts of YES and NO | Together, settles only for the winning-side quantity |
Categorical and scalar markets may settle at different ratios depending on the outcome distribution; this is shown in the Resolution section of the market page.
#Redeeming in the UI
- Open the closed market, or select redeemable items under Profile → Positions.
- Press the Redeem button.
- After a short while, USDT is deposited to your wallet. No gas required.
#Frequently asked questions
- How soon after close can I redeem? As soon as the outcome is finalized. This is usually on or right after the market's expected resolution date.
- Can I redeem later? Yes, there's no expiration. That said, the value is already fixed, so there's no reason to delay.
- Can I redeem only the winning outcome? The UI handles your holdings automatically, so you don't need to worry about it.
