About Continuum
Continuum lets you trade price moves in stocks, commodities and forex on Solana. Buy a long token when you expect a price to rise, or a short token when you expect it to fall.
You can try it today on Solana devnet, a test network, with free test dollars called cUSDC. These tokens have no cash value.
Solana devnet. Test tokens only.
A position you hold in your wallet
You pay for a position in full and hold its token in your wallet. There is no margin account or funding rate. A token gives you price exposure without ownership of the underlying stock, commodity or currency.
Minting creates long and short tokens for the same asset. To redeem, return the required amount of each token. The protocol works out the cUSDC you receive using net asset value (NAV), fees and any risk or collateral adjustments.
Trading and market hours
Continuum's order books can keep trading when the underlying exchange is closed. Minting and redeeming depend on market hours and oracle health, so a closed market or stale price can pause those actions.
The oracle supplies the price data the protocol uses. Check that an action is available before you sign a transaction.
Costs and building on devnet
Trades show fee estimates in test tokens, so you can see how costs affect a position. The short token's value also decays over time with volatility, a measure of how much the asset's price moves. Read the fees guide before you trade.
Developers can use the devnet and public read API to build integrations. The docs explain the protocol and list the deployed addresses. Questions and feedback go to our Discord through the Contact page.
