<figure><img src="/files/oUTSnO8LroMxNdfd7Whd" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>


# Roadmap

**Overview**

Moonlander is building the next chapter of on-chain perpetual trading. For too long, trading has been treated as a solitary experience defined only by charts, numbers, and isolated decisions. In reality, trading is shaped by conversations, sentiment, and community-driven momentum.

Moonlander brings this dynamic environment on-chain by creating a perp trading layer where anything can become a market and where social context is integrated directly into the trading experience.

Trading no longer has to be lonely. Moonlander turns it into a shared, community-powered journey.

**Vision: Everything Can Be a Market**

<figure><img src="/files/GDFbmyiKJyLh6XglY9pP" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Moonlander expands perpetual trading beyond traditional crypto assets. Traders want more than BTC and ETH; they want to participate in cultural moments, speculate on events, and trade assets and outcomes they care about.

Moonlander is evolving into a unified perp layer where any asset, outcome, or signal can be a market, including:

* Crypto assets
* Real-world assets (RWAs)
* Predictions on real-world events, narratives, and cultural trends

Our core innovation is reframing trading as a social activity rather than a purely analytical one.

[**Prediction Perps**](/how-to-use/trading/prediction-markets) **- Live**

<figure><img src="/files/8EkpUubXhN40OWbTMzsL" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Prediction Perps introduce the ability to trade real-world outcomes with the speed and leverage of perpetuals.

These markets are powered by integrations with data sources such as Polymarket and Kalshi, enabling users to trade outcome-based perps across politics, pop culture, sports, macro events, and crypto narratives.

Prediction Perps allow traders to express views on what the community is discussing while maintaining the familiar mechanics of leveraged perpetual trading.

**Play Mode**

<figure><img src="/files/ruDkqbJb28mNvdznzAJm" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Play Mode is built for traders who want a fast, social, and simplified trading experience without traditional complexity.

The current direction:

<table data-card-size="large" data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Simple directional bets</td></tr><tr><td>One-tap entry and instant position flipping</td></tr><tr><td>Competitive, social-focused gameplay</td></tr><tr><td>Multiplier-style or jackpot-style reward structures</td></tr></tbody></table>

Play Mode offers a lighter, more dynamic approach to perps while retaining meaningful strategy. Additional game modes will be introduced over time.

**Social Insights**

<figure><img src="/files/S6q0w5pBiCWYsxX11JGs" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

In fast-moving markets, narratives drive attention as much as technical indicators. Moonlander incorporates real-time social context directly into the trading interface.

The potential key components:

* Live X (Twitter) feed integrated per asset
* Trending commentary and sentiment signals
* Top Trader Leaderboards
* Copy trading and bot-assisted strategies
* Narrative heatmaps and sentiment spikes

These tools convert social signals into actionable insights, making trading more informed and more social.

**Smarter and Faster Trading UX**

<figure><img src="/files/309NHQacT1XJ5U0Zd6Zv" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Moonlander is upgrading its trading engine to deliver an experience comparable to centralized exchanges while maintaining on-chain transparency and self-custody.

Core enhancements under works:

* One-click gasless execution for faster reaction times
* Cross-chain swaps to easily bring capital into Cronos
* AI-enhanced token insights with TA, sentiment, and news
* Personal analytics dashboards for PnL, performance, win rate, and trade history

These improvements aim to make Moonlander accessible, intuitive, and powerful for all trading styles.

**Community Rewards**

<figure><img src="/files/JiP9Fovnb709HI096TLO" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Moonlander’s growth is powered by its community. The platform introduces reward systems that align incentives with participation and performance.

*Pioneer Points Program*

Points may be earned through:

<table data-card-size="large" data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Trading volume</td></tr><tr><td>Performance-based multipliers</td></tr><tr><td>Missions, streaks, and engagement</td></tr><tr><td>Referral and affiliate contributions</td></tr></tbody></table>

Rewards may include seasonal airdrops, fee rebates, and platform perks. Point redemption mechanics and reward structures are subject to refinement to ensure long-term sustainability and fairness.

This program is designed to encourage sustainable, skill-based, and community-driven participation.

**The Path Ahead**

The future of trading is not simply about expanding the number of available markets. It is about redefining trading as a social, interactive, and community-powered experience.

Moonlander is building the on-chain trading layer for this future. One where market participation is driven by culture, conversation, and collective momentum, not just charts.

We invite traders to join us on this journey as we continue expanding markets, enhancing tools, and building a social-first trading ecosystem.

Our goal remains the same: To build an on-chain trading platform where markets, culture, and community converge.

As we continue refining this roadmap, your input will play a central role in shaping what comes next.


# 2025 Year-End Review

<figure><img src="/files/TSDCg6EGoZrZpM0VNkmO" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

As 2025 ends, we want to look back at our growth together with our community this year. We began 2025  with a mission on Cronos zkEVM. Today, we end it as a top-tier perp DEX on Cronos EVM, armed with institutional backing, massive liquidity, and a suite of features that bridge the gap between DeFi and TradFi.

## 🌍 Migration & Activity Surge

We kicked off 2025 with core trading features live on **Cronos zkEVM**. In May, expanded to **Cronos EVM**, unlocking more liquidity and accessibility for our users. The results were explosive:

* **Total Trading Volume**: **Surpassed $3.8B**
* **MLP TVL**: Reached **$31M**
* **Rank**: Entered the **Top 10 Perp DEXs** on DeFiLlama

## ⚡ Speed & RWAs

In June, we broke the on-chain barrier by integrating **Real-World Assets (RWAs)**. Starting with the Mag7 stocks like Tesla and Apple, we gave Striders the power to trade traditional equity volatility without ever leaving the blockchain.

After TGE, we improved our trading engine, cutting execution time from 5–10 seconds to **under 2 seconds**, making trading much faster and smoother.

## 🤝 Integrations & Growth

In September, we focused on scaling access and infrastructure:

* **Crypto.co Pay** integration for seamless fiat-to-crypto onboarding
* **Native perp integration** with **Crypto.com Onchain Wallet** — driving **$106M** in volume in just two weeks
* Strategic investment from **Crypto.com Capital**, reinforcing our place in the Cronos ecosystem and aligning us with long-term institutional support

We also launched a **$50K BTC Trading Contest**, attracting over **2,000 participants** and further fuelling our active user base.

## 🔮Innovation & Upgrade

In Q4, we launched new features and laid the groundwork for 2026:

* **Prediction Perps**: Speculate on real-world events with leverage
* **UX Upgrades**: Smoother, faster trading flow
* **Cross-Chain Swaps**: Onboard and bridge assets seamlessly
* **Language Support**: Chinese and Korean now live - Moonlander is going global 🌐

Behind the scenes, we quietly rolled out major protocol-level improvements, including **circuit breakers**, **slippage model enhancements**, and **indexer upgrades**, making Moonlander faster, safer, and more reliable.

In 2025, we shipped **20+ features**, grew to **$3.8B+ in total volume**, and made **social trading** a real part of the Moonlander experience.

In 2026, we aim to bring even **more RWAs, more gamified features, and grow our user base by 10x**.

Thank you, #CROFAM & Striders. We are going to the Moon together.

# Moonlander Liquidity Pool (MLP)

Moonlander Liquidity Pool (MLP) is the counterparty of all trades on Moonlander. Users can provide liquidity by supplying any of the supported assets and auto-stake $MLP (read more [here](/how-to-use/staking/usdmlp-moonlander-liquidity-pool)).&#x20;

In order to trade on Moonlander, traders need to pay collateral using any of the supported assets in the MLP:&#x20;

* Cronos EVM: USDC
* Cronos zkEVM: zkCRO, vUSD&#x20;

Profits made by traders will be paid out by the MLP, while losses made by traders will be collected by MLP.

When traders open positions, the collateral is not immediately sent to the MLP; instead, they are temporarily held in a designated area known as the “margin pool.”

Upon closing their positions, the following occurs:

* If traders achieve a profit, the margin will be withdrawn from the margin pool and returned to them, while their profits will be sourced from the MLP.
* Conversely, if traders incur a loss, the loss amount will be deducted from the margin pool and transferred to the MLP. The remaining margin will then be returned to the traders.

By setting up an Auto-Sign wallet, you can bypass repetitive wallet signature prompts for common trading actions, enabling you to trade in a single click. This feature is designed to streamline your trading experience without compromising security.

**How It Works**\
1-Click Trading leverages a delegate wallet system secured by a user-defined PIN. This delegate wallet is uniquely tied to your main connected wallet and is authorized to submit transactions on your behalf.

**Setting Up Your Auto-Sign Wallet**

<figure><img src="/files/71e7Evv8Axtrz4G7MMKY" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

To enable 1-Click Trading, you need to set up an Auto-Sign wallet. This process involves two simple steps:

1. Create Your 4-Digit PIN\
   ![](/files/ByfGE10c4ZKQN8o015c4)\
   After entering your PIN, you will need to sign a message in your connected wallet to confirm the creation of your PIN. This step links your PIN to your wallet and generates the delegate wallet.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Important:**

* This PIN will be used to secure your Auto-Sign wallet. Keep it confidential.
  {% endhint %}

2. Approve the Delegate Wallet\
   ![](/files/30vnlwNbrudfuPRooq0p)\
   You need to approve this delegate wallet to submit transactions on behalf of your connected wallet. You will be prompted to sign a transaction in your connected wallet to grant these permissions.

Once these steps are completed, your Auto-Sign wallet is set up and ready for 1-Click Trading. You can easily toggle 1-Click Trading on and off from your Portfolio -> Wallet section.

\
When Auto-Sign is off, you will be prompted for on-chain signing for every transaction.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Notes**

* To enable 1-Click Trading, you need to ensure your connected wallet has sufficient gas funds. The Auto-Sign wallet will draw gas from your connected wallet to execute transactions.
* Market order remains gasless for which 1-Click Trading reinforces.
* You have full control over the permissions granted to your Auto-Sign wallet. You can reset or disable the feature at any time.
* If you wish to revoke permissions or start fresh, you can use the "Reset" option available next to your Auto-Sign wallet details. This will require you to go through the setup process again.

# Close Position

Close your position at your desired price.

# Liquidation

Liquidation can be triggered by the following:

* Market price hitting the liquidation price (See [this page](/how-to-use/trading/liquidation) for more information)
* Having insufficient collateral to cover fees

When either situation occurs, your position will be closed automatically. Collateral will be used to pay off the losses and sent to the $MLP pool as a liquidation fee.


# Take Profit/Stop Loss Orders

**Take Profit (TP) orders** are utilized to automatically close a position and secure profits once the market price hits a predetermined level:

* Long Positions: above the entry price
* Short Positions: below the entry price

Conversely, **Stop Loss (SL) orders** are employed to automatically close a position and limit losses once the market price reaches a preset level:

* Long Positions: below the entry price
* Short Positions: above the entry price

## How should the TP/SL orders be set?

## **Trading Hours and Restrictions**

<figure><img src="/files/NlmUw2Lw998Htd44iq9v" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

For holidays, see this link for details: <https://www.nyse.com/markets/hours-calendars>&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}

* Note that [funding rate](/how-to-use/trading/fees#funding-fee) will continue to apply during off hours. Users are reminded to monitor their positions and manage their collateral to prevent liquidation.
* In the event that the liquidation condition is met during off hours, [liquidation](/how-to-use/trading/liquidation) will be executed when the market opens again.
  {% endhint %}

## **Open and Close Fee**

RWA trading pairs enjoy a lower open and close fee at **0.02% of position size**.

## Reduced Leverage / Increased Spread

To maintain orderly and fair trading conditions, Moonlander may apply temporary adjustments on RWA markets during major corporate or market-moving events.

These adjustments may include:

* Leverage
* Funding rates
* Spread

**When These Adjustments Apply**

Risk parameters may be temporarily adjusted during major events such as:

* Stock splits
* Earnings announcements
* Dividend distributions
* Other significant corporate actions or high-volatility events<br>

**Effective Timing**

These adjustments typically take effect starting 2 days prior to the event and may remain active until market conditions stabilize.

{% hint style="info" %}

* Specific parameters and timing may vary. Adjustments do not affect the existing positions.
  {% endhint %}


# Liquidation

## :clock1: When will liquidation be triggered?

* Market price hitting the liquidation price
* Having insufficient collateral to cover fees

## :abacus: How is Liquidation Price calculated?

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Long Position" %}
Liquidation Price = Entry Price - (Collateral \* Liquidation Lost Rate - Fees) / Position Size in Quantity
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Short Position" %}
Liquidation Price = Entry Price + (Collateral \* Liquidation Lost Rate - Fees) / Position Size in Quantity
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

* Fees include: Close Fee, Holding Fee and Funding Fee
* Liquidation Loss Rate = 85%
* Position Size in Quantity = Initial Collateral \* Leverage / Entry Price

{% hint style="info" %}
When the position loses >= 85% of its value, it will be liquidated.
{% endhint %}

## :moneybag: What happens to the remaining collateral?

Liquidated positions are covered by MLP. Any remaining collateral will be transferred to MLP upon liquidation so there is no refund. This applies to both regular mode and degen mode at 500, 750, 1000x


# Fees

## Open and Close Fee

It is charged when opening and closing positions.

| Close Fee | 0.05% of position size | 0.03% of position size or 15% of profit, whichever is higher. |

{% hint style="info" %}
RWA trading pairs enjoy a lower open and close fee at **0.02% of position size**.
{% endhint %}

## Execution Fee

USD 0.1 in collateral token is charged when opening and closing positions to cover the gas cost of our Keeper bots.

## Holding Fee

It is charged when closing positions. The fee is calculated based on the size of the position and the duration for which the Strider holds it:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="" %}
Holding Fee = Position Size \* Entry Price \* (Number of Seconds Held) \* Holding Fee Rate Per Second&#x20;
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

## Funding Fee

Depending on the position you hold, it can be charged/paid to you when closing position.

It is used to balance the Long and Short Open Interest (OI) and to protect MLP liquidity providers from excessive risk exposure.

* When Long OI > Short OI, the Long positions pay funding fee, while the Short positions earn funding fee.&#x20;
* When Long OI < Short OI, the Long positions earn funding fee, while the Short positions pay funding fee.

The fee is calculated at every second and automatically adjusts as the market fluctuates. Throughout the position's duration, it may either accrue or incur funding fees intermittently. The fee is deducted/added to the collateral of the position and is reflected in the unrealized PnL of the position, directly impacting the position’s liquidation price. When closing the position, the final funding fee is reconciled.

You may find the funding fee rate under each trading pair.

Note that Funding Fee and Holding Fee are combined, displayed, and charged as Holding Fee on our platform.

Here is how the Funding Fee is calculated:

### Base Interest Rate

The fundingFeePerSecondP represents the base interest rate calculated and reported per second by an off-chain keeper. This keeper retrieves the daily closing price for each trading pair from the Pyth API and then calculates this parameter using historical price data.

The base interest rate is determined by multiplying the Annualized Historical Volatility by a constant k:&#x20;

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="" %}
Base Interest Rate = k \* HV

where HV is the Annualized Historical Voltaility
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

The base interest rate is an annualized interest rate. It is further converted into a per-second rate:&#x20;

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="" %}
Base Interest Rate Per Second = Base Interest Rate / (365 \* 24 \* 3600)
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Basic Funding Rate

Basic funding rate per second is calculated based on the Long/Short OI and base interest rate discussed above:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="" %}
If longOI != shortOI

&#x20; basicFundingRatePerSecond = baseInterestRatePerSecond \* (longOI - shortOI) / max(longOI, shortOI)

&#x20; if abs(basicFundingRatePerSecond) < minFundingFeeR

&#x20;   basicFundingRatePerSecond = minFundingFeeR

&#x20; else if abs(basicFundingRatePerSecond) > maxFundingFeeR

&#x20;   basicFundingRatePerSecond = maxFundingFeeR

else

&#x20; basicFundingRatePerSecond = 0
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

The basic funding rate calculated above is positive when Long OI exceeds Short OI. This suggests that Long positions are required to pay the funding fee to Short positions. Conversely, a negative basic funding rate indicates that Short positions are paying the funding fee to Long positions.

The variable baseInterestRatePerSecond (also known as fundingFeePerSecondP) represents the basic funding fee rate in a one-sided market condition, where either Long OI or Short OI is 0.<br>


# Spread

**Spread** refers to the difference between the market price and the **execution price** you receive when opening or closing a position. On our platform, spread can be fixed or dynamically calculated based on multiple factors, and it applies **to all order types at the time of execution**.

## :abacus: How Spread Is Calculated?

Our platform adopts both **fixed** and **dynamic spread** model across the trading pairs.

For **dynamic spread**, it takes takes into account:

* **Existing Open Interest** on the trading pair
* **Size of the New Position** being opened
* **Platform Liquidity**&#x20;

This approach ensures that spread adjusts with market conditions, helping reflect the true execution cost more accurately.

## :currency\_exchange: Market Orders

* You can set slippage tolerance on market orders when opening a position.
* In the confirmation step, the estimated entry price includes spread, based on current platform settings.
* The final execution price will closely match the estimated entry price, assuming normal market conditions.

## :currency\_exchange: Limit Orders

* Slippage tolerance does not apply to limit orders.
* In the confirmation step, the trigger price is exactly what you input.
* When the price is reached and the order is executed, the execution price will be adjusted by the spread.

## :currency\_exchange: Closing a Position

* The mark price reflects the current market price.
* At execution, spread is applied to determine the final close price.

## :currency\_exchange: Take Profit / Stop Loss (TP/SL)

* TP/SL prices are user-defined and do not include spread.
* At execution, spread is applied just like with limit orders.
* The estimated PnL shown in the UI already takes spread into account, giving you a more accurate preview.

## :mag: TLDR

Spread is **applied at execution** for all order types:

<table><thead><tr><th width="279.2734375">Order Type</th><th>Notes</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Market Order</td><td>Est. entry price shown includes spread</td></tr><tr><td>Limit Order</td><td>Trigger price is user input; execution price includes spread</td></tr><tr><td>Close Position</td><td>Spread applied to mark price at the time of closing</td></tr><tr><td>Take Profit/Stop Loss</td><td>Execution price includes spread; Est.

# Prediction Markets

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Prediction Markets have been deprecated as of February 2026.** Trading, creation, and settlement are no longer supported.
{% endhint %}

Ready for real-world speculation, amplified? Moonlander Leveraged Prediction Trading — an exciting frontier where speculation meets real-world events, supercharged by high leverage and powered by lightning-fast settlement. Whether you’re betting on Bitcoin hitting new heights, election outcomes, or major sports events, Moonlander gives you the tools and transparency to trade confidently and instantly.

**What is it?**

Leveraged Prediction Trading lets you speculate on whether real-world events will happen within specified timeframes, with the option to amplify your gains (and risks) through leverage. Unlike traditional prediction markets that settle well after events conclude, Moonlander’s innovative approach uses live data aggregated from the most trusted prediction sources to settle positions in near-real-time.

This means you experience the thrill of fast-paced trading, making moves based on unfolding events and market sentiment — not long waits for final official resolutions.

**How it works?**

Our proprietary in-house oracle pulls live prices from multiple reputable prediction markets, aggregating them into a single reliable index for each supported event. This index drives the price you trade on and determines market settlement, ensuring transparency and fairness.

When you open a position, just like regular perp trading where you can either long or short, set your leverage, collateral, and risk controls like take-profit and stop-loss. Market prices indicate the perceived probability of an event happening, as interpreted by traders. You’ll be bound by a **minimum holding period** before you can manually close, but **positions can be liquidated immediately if risk limits are breached**.<br>

Markets close either on a scheduled expiry or if a price threshold is met and sustained, with all closure reasons and settlement prices clearly displayed.

**Why Moonlander?**

Moonlander is built on the robust Cronos EVM and zkEVM blockchains, combining high speed, low fees, and strong security to help you trade smarter. We offer:

* Instant and transparent settlement based on live aggregated market signals
* A diverse set of event-driven markets easily discovered and traded alongside standard perpetual pairs
* Clear risk management rules including minimum holding periods and liquidations

If you’re looking for a faster, fairer, and more thrilling way to play the markets, Moonlander offers exactly that.


# Opening a Prediction Position

Ready to trade?<br>

**Step 1: Choose Your Market**

* Discover events ranging from major crypto milestones (e.g., “Bitcoin will reach $150K by 2026”) to real-world occurrences like elections and sports championships. Use the left sidebar or the search box to find markets that match your interests and strategy.
* Select the market and the side you want to take: Long (bet on probability rising) or Short (bet on probability falling).<br>

*Tip: Check the market’s expiry times and minimum holding periods listed in the market details pane.*

![](/files/nWKuruIhNUxlsZWwLpki)

**Step 2: Configure Your Trade Parameters**

* Leverage: Select how much leverage you want to apply to amplify your position. Remember, higher leverage can multiply gains but also risks.
* Collateral: Enter the amount you want to commit as collateral for this position.
* Order Type: Choose from market or limit orders, depending on your preferred execution style.
* Take Profit (TP) / Stop Loss (SL): Set your exit strategy to lock in gains or limit losses. TP/SL values must stay within the market’s allowed price range.

![](/files/TUltdhWVW77BAPvXBddt)

**Step 3: Confirm Minimum Holding Period**

* Note that your position cannot be closed manually before the minimum holding period - configured per market. This restriction helps maintain fair trading conditions. You can, however, adjust collateral, TP, and SL anytime during this period.

<figure><img src="/files/Lhcd1pmkTsKU71xsM4EW" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Step 4: Review and Place Your Order**

* Review all details carefully, including event information, current price, leverage, and trade size. Confirm your order placement through the UI. Orders outside allowed limits will be blocked with clear error messages to help you adjust.


# Prediction Market Format

Each prediction market has a binary outcome. For example: "BTC will reach $150,000 by 2026".<br>

Users can open positions in two directions:

* **Long Position:** Betting on the probability of the event increasing (similar to a "YES" probability rising or "NO" falling on Polymarket).
* **Short Position:** Betting on the probability of the event decreasing (similar to a "NO" probability rising or "YES" falling on Polymarket).

Price represents the market-implied probability of the event. For example, if the current price is $0.70, this indicates that the market collectively assigns a 70% likelihood to the event occurring..<br>

The price always ranges between $0.001 and $0.999. A price closer to $0.999 indicates a higher perceived probability of the event happening, while a price closer to $0.001 indicates a lower perceived probability.<br>

If you are long on the event, you expect the price to move closer to $0.999. If you are short, you expect it to move closer to $0.001.

**Example:** A user believes the probability of "U.S. Strategic BTC Reserve purchases new BTCs" is underestimated.

The current price is $0.65 (65% probability).

A user opens a long position with 10 USDC at 10x leverage.

If the price rises to $0.80 (80% probability),&#x20;

Profit = (current price - entry price) x position size = ($0.80 - $0.65) x 100 = $15<br>


# Settlement & Market Closure

Moonlander’s Prediction Market employs clear and transparent rules to determine when a market closes and how all open positions are settled. These mechanisms are designed to ensure fairness for all participants and provide you with predictable market outcomes.

Here are the two ways of how markets can close:

1. **Scheduled Expiry**

Each market on Moonlander has a specific, pre-determined closure time. This time is always clearly displayed within the market’s interface. When the scheduled time arrives, the market automatically closes, and the positions will be settled based on the latest price at expiry.

2. **Price Threshold with Time Window**

Markets can also close automatically before their scheduled expiry if the aggregated market price for a specific outcome crosses and then sustains a defined threshold.

**How it works:** If the price for an outcome goes above a certain high threshold (e.g., >0.9, meaning a strong consensus for “probability of the event occuring”) or below a certain low threshold (e.g., <0.1, meaning a strong consensus for “probability of the event not occuring”), and this price holds for a set period (e.g., 15 minutes), the market will be closed.

**Settlement price:** It’s important to note that when a market closes due to a price threshold being reached, all positions are settled at that specific threshold price (e.g. 0.9 or 0.1), not the most recent aggregated price at the exact moment of closure. Slippage will also apply dynamically based on platform parameters meaning the final effective execution price may vary slightly depending on market conditions and liquidity at settlement.

*Note: All closure rules and outcomes are clearly displayed in the UI with real-time status updates.*

####

### Scenario/Example

**Scheduled Expiry**

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Market: “Oscar Piastri will be the F1 Drivers Champion of 2025” (UTC time).

Expiry: 2025-12-07 12:00:00 UTC.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
At exactly 2025-12-07 12:00:00 UTC, the market closes regardless of price movement in the underlying prediction markets afterward.

All existing positions will be closed at the latest aggregated price.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Why it matters:

Some prediction markets may resolve in later dates due to resolution efforts or dispute. However, that does not affect the settlement of the leveraged market on our platform.

**Price Threshold with Time Window**

* Market: “ETH will reach $5,000 before 1st January 2026” (UTC).
* Scheduled expiry: 1st January 2026 at 23:59 UTC.
* Thresholds:
  * Upper threshold: $0.95 (very likely “Yes”).
  * Lower threshold: $0.05 (very likely “No”).
* Time window: 30 minutes sustained.

*Scenario A — Early Closure Triggered*

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
On 1st January 2026 at 14:00 UTC, the aggregated price rises above 0.9.

The price stays above $0.95 until 14:30 UTC (30 minutes).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Market will be closed at 14:30 UTC.

All positions settle at $0.95, not at the exact latest price (e.g. $0.97).

Even if the market would have gone to 0.95 later, everyone’s “Long” positions settle at 0.9 since the threshold price and time window have been triggered and sustained.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

*Scenario B — Temporary Spike (No Closure)*

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Price spikes to $0.97 but drops back to $0.85 after 15 minutes.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
No market closure since the condition wasn’t sustained for the full 30 minutes.

The market remains open until either another sustained trigger or scheduled expiry.

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

# Staking

Moonlander offers three different staking pools to fuel our Striders’ missions **without the need for active trading**:

1. $MLP staking - Moonlander Liquidity Pool
2. $FM staking - our native governance token&#x20;
3. $CM staking - time-locked version of $FM&#x20;

## Fee Distribution

**Open & Close fees** will be distributed as follows:

* **60% to Moonlander Liquidity Pool** as rewards to $MLP stakers
* **20% to Staking Pool** as rewards to $FM and $CM stakers
* **20% to Moonlander Treasury**

**All of the following fees will go into Moonlander Liquidity Pool:**

* Holding fees paid by traders
* Losses and liquidation made by traders&#x20;
* MLP mint and burn fees by stakers

<figure><img src="/files/xOmK3d9cGrWWtSqjig2g" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>


# $MLP (Moonlander Liquidity Pool)

**Moonlander Liquidity Pool** acts as the counterparty of all trades executed on Moonlander. It comprises a series of bluechip assets like $BTC, $ETH, and stablecoins. Asset weightage of the pool will vary based on the deposits and withdrawals by liquidity providers.

**$MLP** is the index token of all the underlying assets in the MLP. By providing liquidity to the MLP, you are buying and auto-staking $MLP, which allows you to earn a portion of the protocol revenue.

## 🖐️ How can I buy and stake $MLP?

You can buy $MLP with any of the supported assets in the MLP with a mint fee. MLP mint fee varies depending on the weightage of the assets in the MLP. If the weightage is lower than the target percentage, you can buy $MLP with that asset at a lower fee, and vice versa. This maintains MLP’s target composition as liquidity providers are incentivized to balance the pool. Once you have purchased the $MLP, it will be auto-staked to start earning rewards.

Our Moonlander Liquidity Pool and $MLP are preparing for launch. Buckle up, Striders.

## 💹 How much does it cost to buy/sell $MLP?

## 💰 What rewards do I get by staking $MLP?

You will earn the following rewards by staking $MLP:

* **$CM** - time-locked version of our native token $FM
* **$MLP price growth** - as fees and trader losses are added into the liquidity pool, increasing $MLP value

**Below are what go into MLP as rewards to stakers:**

* **60%** of Open & Close fees&#x20;
* All of the following fees:
  * Holding fees paid by traders
  * Losses and liquidation made by traders
  * MLP mint and burn fees by stakers

As the price of $MLP increases over time — driven by protocol revenues such as trading fees and trader losses— your staked $MLP becomes more valuable.

When you eventually sell $MLP and withdraw your underlying liquidity, you'll receive more tokens than you initially deposited, reflecting the growth in $MLP value. This price appreciation acts as a **passive yield** on top of any $CM emissions you earn while staking.

## 🧮 How is the price of $MLP calculated?

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="" %}
Price of $MLP = AUM / $MLP Supply

where AUM = sum of (poolTokenAmount \* tokenPrice) + unrealizedPnL
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

The value of AUM is derived from&#x20;

1. The composition of the MLP pool, i.e. amount of each asset in the pool
2. The price of each underlying assets
3. Fees collected from traders and stakers - open/close fees, holding fees, MLP mint and burn fees
4. Profits paid out to traders, or loss gained from traders
5. Staking yield earned by smart contracts from vTokens

## 💱 How does unrealized PnL impact MLP?

Think of the MLP pool as Mission Control for all trading operations. While we serve as the counterparty to all trades, the difference between long and short positions (net Open Interest) is what impacts our pool most, as it reflects the overall market exposure of traders within Moonlander:

**Positive Unrealized PnL:**

* MLP pool prepares to distribute rewards to traders
* Pool liquidity will decrease hence price of $MLP will remain stagnant or decrease

**Negative Unrealized PnL:**&#x20;

* MLP pool receives the money lost by traders &#x20;
* Pool capacity grows hence price of $MLP will increase


# $FM (Full Moon token)

**Made in the image of the full moon**, **$FM** is the native governance token of Moonlander that can be staked to earn our protocol revenue and incentives.&#x20;

## 💰 What rewards do I get by staking $FM?

You can earn the following rewards by staking $FM:

* **$CM** - time-locked version of our native token $FM, generated at a fixed rate per second
* **Protocol revenue in $CRO -** coming from 20% of all Open & Close fees collected from traders

## 🖐️ How can I get $FM?

Visit <https://vvs.finance/> to purchase $FM on Cronos EVM.

## :coin: What is $FM's tokenomics?

$FM has a total supply of 20,000,000,000 (20 billion).

<figure><img src="/files/oUTSnO8LroMxNdfd7Whd" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>


# $CM (Crescent Moon token)

**Just as the crescent moon takes time to become a full moon**, **$CM** is the time-locked version of $FM and it is not transferable between wallets. With $CM, you can stake it to earn even more rewards or convert it to $FM.

## 💰 What rewards do I get by staking $CM?

You can earn the following rewards by staking $CM:

* **More $CM**
* **Protocol revenue in $CRO** - coming from 20% of all Open & Close fees collected from traders

$CM rewards generated by $FM staking will be given at a **fixed rate per second**. Each staked $CM will enjoy the same reward APR% as $FM, which means that staking $CM increases your share of rewards; similar to if you had staked more $FM into the staking pool.

## 💱 How can I convert $CM to $FM?

You can convert $CM to $FM every sec for **365 days** at the exchange rate of **1:1**. Converted $CM  can be claimed at any time.&#x20;

To initiate the conversion, you need to have sufficient **converting power**, which stands for the initial amount of staked $FM or $MLP used to earn the $CM rewards.&#x20;

Insufficient converting power means you have unstaked some of the $FM/$MLP earlier. You will either have to

1. Reduce the number of $CM you want to convert, or
2. Stake more $FM/$MLP to increase your converting power

Once the conversion is initiated, the initial amount of staked $FM or $MLP that was used to earn the $CM rewards **will be reserved**. The reserved $FM/$MLP can be unstaked once the conversion is completed.

> **Example**:
>
> You have staked 1000 $FM and earned 10 $CM from the staking. 1000 $FM will be your converting power to convert the 10 $CM into 10 $FM.

Note that staked $FM/$MLP reserved for conversion will **continue to earn rewards**, while $CM that has been unstaked and deposited for conversion will not be earning staking rewards anymore.

{% hint style="info" %}

* The converting power balance will only update after the corresponding $CM rewards from the $MLP or $FM staking pools are claimed. If the rewards are not claimed, the converting power balance will remain unchanged, even if more is staked into the reward pools.
  {% endhint %}

## 🖐️ How can I get $CM?

It can be earned by staking $FM or $MLP.&#x20;

# Risk Disclosure

The Moonlander protocol (“**Protocol**”) is a set of smart contracts made available by Moonlander on a voluntary, “as-is” and “as available” basis. It is not a service of any kind and you should not rely on Moonlander to assist you to evaluate the Protocol, assess its fitness for any purpose or comply with any requirements. You assume all risks arising from interactions with the Protocol including without limitation all applicable legal and regulatory risks in connection with the use and interaction with the Protocol, including with respect to any transactions. Nothing stated relating to the Protocol is a prospectus nor a solicitation for investment and does not pertain in any way to an offering of securities in any jurisdiction. Nothing stated related to the Protocol constitutes a recommendation or advice of any kind. Moonlander is not liable for any claim, damages or other liability, whether in contract, tort or under any other theory of liability, arising from, out of or in connection with the Protocol.

There are several risks when using the Protocol. These risks include inherent risks associated with the use of a virtual platform, the decentralized nature of the Protocol, and participating in virtual asset transactions. Risks include, without limitation:

* Partial or total loss of virtual assets, including any value attributed to virtual assets;
* Collapse in liquidity with respect to virtual assets;
* Changes in compatibility of a virtual asset with the Protocol;
* Changes in the smart contracts;
* Regulatory uncertainty and government action against virtual assets and persons involved in virtual asset activities;
* Extreme volatility with respect to transaction parameters and value attributed to virtual assets;
* Possibility of market misconduct by participants including for example market manipulation, trading on the basis of non-public information, and front running;
* Delays in or complete failure of virtual asset transactions being confirmed;
* Counterparty risk;
* Faults, defects, hacks, exploits, errors or unforeseen circumstances occurring in respect of the platform or the technologies that the Protocol depends on;
* Loss of private keys; and
* Attacks on the Protocol or the failure of the technologies that the Platform depends on including for example distributed denial of service, sybil attacks, phishing, social engineering, hacking, smurfing, malware, double spending, majority-mining, consensus-based or other mining attacks, misinformation campaigns, forks, and spoofing.
* This list of potential risks is not exhaustive and is not intended to capture the extent of all possible risks. In the event of any of the above occurring, you may lose your virtual assets entirely. Participants should consider all of the above and assess the nature of, and their own appetite for relevant risks independently and consult their own professional advisers before making any decisions to participate in the Protocol. **PARTICIPANTS USE THE PROTOCOL AT THEIR OWN RISK.**
