Getting Started (mass-market guide)

What is SatoriEx?

Trade on what happens next in Asia — election results, K-pop chart positions, BTC closing prices, typhoon landfalls, sports finals. SatoriEx is a prediction market built for Asia-Pacific: 8 languages, mobile-first, sign up with email and place your first trade in under a minute — no crypto wallet, no seed phrase. Each market has a YES side and a NO side priced between $0.01 and $0.99. That price is the live probability the crowd assigns to the outcome: if the event happens every YES share pays $1.00, otherwise every NO share pays $1.00.

Creating an Account

Sign up with email in under a minute — no crypto wallet, no seed phrase. SatoriEx holds your USDC balance for you (custodial mode) so you can deposit, trade, and withdraw without ever touching a blockchain. When you're ready, you can link a wallet to bridge funds on-chain.

A 1.5% trading fee is deducted from sellers' proceeds at match time. Placing or cancelling an order is free; the fee only applies when shares actually settle into a counterparty's hands.

Understanding Prices

Prices are quoted in USDC and range from $0.01 to $0.99 per share. A price of $0.70 reflects a 70% probability. If the event resolves YES, every YES share pays out $1.00 (so a $0.70 share returns about $0.30 net). If it resolves NO, NO shares pay out $1.00 and YES shares pay $0. See the Trading Guide for a full worked example, including the loss case.

How Markets Resolve

Once an event has happened, the market enters optimistic-bonded resolution: a proposer asserts the outcome by posting a bond, opening a 2-hour dispute window. If no one disputes, the outcome auto-finalises and winners are paid $1 per share automatically. If a $10 dispute is filed, the dispute is reviewed; an upheld dispute escalates to a voter panel that decides the final outcome, while a dismissed dispute lets the proposer's outcome stand. The proposer's bond is returned when the outcome holds and slashed to the dispute reserve when an upheld escalation overturns it.

KYC Tiers

KYC ("Know Your Customer") is a verification process required by financial regulators in most Asia-Pacific countries. Each tier unlocks higher daily trading and withdrawal limits. We collect only what we need and never sell your data.

Daily Limits & Fees

Limits apply per calendar day (UTC midnight reset) and are enforced separately for deposits and withdrawals. Deposits are blocked at Tier 0 by default — complete Tier 1 verification to enable them.

First withdrawal only: a one-time $2.00 USDC fee covers on-chain proxy-wallet deployment (one-time L2 gas cost). No SatoriEx fee on subsequent withdrawals.

These are default values. Admins may adjust limits within regulatory bounds.

Limits may change; the latest values are always shown in your wallet before you submit.
