Vatix Documentation

Official documentation for the Vatix prediction market protocol

About Vatix

A fully open-source prediction market protocol on Stellar

Vatix is a decentralized prediction market platform built on the Stellar blockchain, designed to be a transparent, community-driven alternative to centralized prediction markets. Built with Soroban smart contracts, Vatix enables users to create markets, trade outcome shares, and participate in decentralized forecasting.

Why Vatix?

• Fully Open Source: Every component is open for community contribution and scrutiny
• Built on Stellar: Lightning-fast transactions with minimal fees
• Community-First: Designed for concurrent development
• Transparent: No black boxes - all market mechanisms are auditable on-chain

Vision

Create a prediction market platform that rivals Polymarket in functionality while maintaining complete transparency and decentralization through open-source development.
