### Quick Overview

On 0Y Markets:

* You trade on outcomes such as:
  * “Will BTC close Higher or Lower in the next 15 minutes?”
  * “Will Team A win tonight?”
  * “Will Event X be officially announced by Date Y?”
* You can deposit supported stablecoins across multiple networks:
  * **USDT and USDC** on BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Polygon, Ethereum, Solana, and more
  * **USDC** on Base and Arc
  * **USDG** on Robinhood Chain
  * You can also deposit money via **Binance Connect**
* 0Y uses **LMSR (Logarithmic Market Scoring Rule)** rather than a peer-to-peer orderbook:
  * trades execute instantly based on the available quote
  * you don’t need another user to match your trade
* When a market resolves, 0Y uses the data sources specified in the market rules, which may include:
  * Binance live feed API
  * Bybit websocket data stream
  * Chainlink data streams
  * other third-party data providers, depending on the market

If a market cannot be reliably resolved due to data quality issues, 0Y may mark the market as **Refunded/Invalid** and return the amounts committed to positions in that market.

{% hint style="success" %}
If there’s a data quality dispute for a market, 0Y will refund all traders for that specific market.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.0y.world/getting-started/what-is-0y-markets.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
