Buying

A buy spends a funding asset and receives the market token. While the market is bonding, the fill is against the Wick curve. After Ignition, the fill is against the official pool.

Traders should see venue, remaining Fair Start capacity, and transaction state before they sign. Wallet connection gates the submit, not the ticket.

• Choose size and a funding source in the ticket.
• Routing converts that source into the market quote asset when needed, then hits the curve or pool.
• Fair Start can reduce or block a bonding-curve buy for that wallet.
• Buys are closed while a market is igniting, and after expiry.
• Visible states: Preparing → Signing → Submitted → Filled / Failed. After a fill or fail the ticket re-arms and leaves a receipt with status, quoted size, and an explorer hash.

Quoted size is not a fill. Price impact, slippage, a closed book, or a failed signature can leave you with no tokens. Funding routes that bridge or convert add extra failure points.

Read the ticket’s venue (curve vs pool), Fair Start remainder, and route hops. If buying is closed, the terminal should say why — Fair Start, igniting, or sell-only.
