For Market Creators
Welcome to BigMarket — where ideas become markets, and markets grow communities. Whether you’re launching a prediction market, an experiment in crowd intelligence, or a fun challenge for your community, BigMarket gives you the tools to do it in a decentralized, transparent way.
What It Means to Be a Creator
Market creators are the builders and curators of the BigMarket ecosystem. By setting up a market, you’re not just offering a bet — you’re inviting the community to think, debate, and participate. Every market created helps shape a more informed, more connected community.
Creators can:
Launch binary, scalar, or categorical prediction markets using the intuitive market creation flow.
Choose their own fee model (0–10%) — this becomes your creator revenue when the market resolves.
Earn platform reputation (BIGR) for activity and successful markets.
Grow community participation around the topics that matter to you.

How You Earn as a Creator
When you create a market, you stake a small amount of BIG tokens (the governance token of BigMarket) — this ensures quality and alignment with the DAO. In return, you earn creator fees and can unlock additional rewards through DAO participation.
Here’s how it works:
Set Your Market Fee You decide how much of the winning pool goes to you — up to 10%. This is paid automatically on market resolution.
Earn Platform Rewards Part of the total fee pool (dev + DAO + market fees) is shared with creators and stakers.
40% → Development Fund
30% → DAO Treasury
20% → Staking Rewards
10% → Buy-back Program
Reputation Rewards Every market you create and every stake you attract earns you BIGR (reputation points). BIGR isn’t tradable — it’s soul-bound, showing your contribution and unlocking new creator privileges over time.
Community Growth Great markets get noticed. High-participation markets boost your visibility, and repeat creators gain DAO influence through governance proposals.
What You’ll Need to Get Started
To create a market, you’ll need:
A connected Stacks wallet (like Xverse or Leather)
At least 100 BIG tokens staked (returned after market resolution)
A clear question or event for prediction (e.g. “Will BTC reach $80K by December 31?”)
Optionally: data source (for oracle-based resolution, e.g. Pyth)

What Happens After Creation
Your market goes live — participants can stake on different outcomes.
You earn fees as liquidity builds.
Resolution happens automatically (via oracle or community vote).
Creator fee payout and your staked BIG are returned when the market closes successfully.
If your market is clear, fair, and active — you’ll not only earn rewards but also strengthen the community’s trust in creator-led markets.
Tips for Successful Markets
Keep your market specific and time-bound.
Promote it — share with your audience or community.
Join the BigMarket DAO to vote on new features and creator incentives.
Experiment! Try fun, community-driven markets as well as serious ones.
