Delayed
Market moves toDELAYED when the configured data source(s) cannot
yield a safe, unambiguous outcome:
- Provider data is unavailable or stale at the expected resolution window.
- Provider data is ambiguous (e.g. event status not yet decisive).
- When multi-source is configured, no strict majority across the configured providers.
- The source reports the event cancelled or abandoned. The market
waits in
DELAYEDuntil the platform decides whether to void it.
Your trading effect
- New orders: rejected (
status: REJECTED,code: market_not_open). - Existing locked balances: preserved.
Recovery
- The platform cross-checks a secondary source.
- If resolved → returns to
PENDING_RESOLUTION. - If no result can be established in reasonable time → the market is voided (below).
Void
Void is a payout-vector outcome. By default the oracle reports equal numerators for every outcome ([1, 1] on a binary market), so
each outcome token redeems for an equal share of the collateral. The
platform may instead void at a fair-price vector (derived from
holders’ entry cost or from the last traded price) and may add a
make-whole top-up, shown as makeWholeTopup on GET /api/me/positions
and already included in payoutPreview. Redemption then follows that
void payout vector through the normal
redemption flow — partners do
not need a separate refund flow. The amount returned to a holder is
set by the void payout vector and their token holdings, not by the
price they individually paid for those tokens.
Grounds:
- Event cancelled / abandoned with no standing result.
- Resolution criteria insufficient / ambiguous.
- Dispute review concluded void is the only safe outcome.
Approval
A void is a platform decision taken under its internal approval process. On-chain it is executed by the oracle’s admin role.What you observe
- Market status →
VOIDED. - WebSocket: a
status_changedframe withtoStatus: "VOIDED"onmarket_lifecycle— there is no separate cancel event. - Users: positions redeem against the void payout vector through
the vault. With auto-redeem
on (the default) the platform redeems the refund for you within a few
minutes, with no 1 USDC minimum; otherwise redeem with
POST /api/me/positions/redeem, orVault.redeemPositions/Vault.redeemPositionsNegRisk. Lock release follows redemption, not the original trade-cost basis.
Challenger bond on void
Returned in full. Void = “original proposal was wrong, but dispute was also not the correct path”.Neg-risk groups
A neg-risk group is voided as a whole, keyed by itsnegRiskMarketId.
Once an outcome has been proposed, the void takes two steps: the
platform first queues it (queueVoidMarket), which freezes the group —
convertPositions reverts with MarketVoidQueued — and then executes
it (voidMarket). A queued void can be withdrawn if the result turns
up after all.
The standard void ([1, 1] on every outcome) is not possible once any
position in the group has been converted: it reverts with
CannotVoidAfterConversions. Such a group is settled with an outcome,
or voided at set prices instead.
Emergency proposal clear
If the oracle signer posted a mistaken proposal (the id is theconditionId on binary markets, the negRiskMarketId on neg-risk):
