Market Resolution & Challenge System

Resolution Process

Yamata uses a challenge-based resolution system to ensure accurate results:

1. Initial Resolution: Market creator submits the winning outcome

2. 24-Hour Challenge Period: Window for disputing incorrect results

3. Economic Incentives: Challengers stake tokens; correct challenges rewarded

4. Finalization: After challenge period, result becomes final

Resolution Criteria

Markets can be resolved when:

• Event has occurred (past tResolve)

• Outcome is objectively verifiable

• Market creator has submitted result

• 24-hour challenge period has passed (if challenged)

Cancellation Scenarios

Markets may be cancelled if:

• Fewer than 2 outcomes have commitments (unresolvable)

• Flagged for rule violations during challenge period

• Event cancelled or made unresolvable in real world

• No winning outcome (edge case)

In cancellation scenarios, all participants receive full refunds.
