Asset Types
User-Issued Assets, SbAssets (MPAs), and Prediction Market Assets
Asset Types
User-Issued Assets (UIA): tokens created and managed by any account on the network. The issuer configures market fees, transfer restrictions, whitelists, and blacklists. UIAs are freely tradeable against any other asset on the DEX.
Market-Pegged Assets / SbAssets (MPA): collateral-backed synthetic assets whose value tracks an external reference price. Created by locking collateral to borrow a pegged token, with price tracked via witness-published price feeds. Subject to margin calls, force settlement, and global settlement mechanisms.
Prediction Market Assets — a specialised variant of MPA for binary outcome markets, created with is_prediction_market = true. Collateral and debt are always 1:1 — undercollateralisation cannot occur and no margin calls fire. Settles to either 0 or 1 at resolution.
