Overview

A guide on integrating with the Aver Protocol

What is Aver?

Aver is a unique blockchain protocol on Solana which facilitates the listing of prediction markets and the trustless, decentralized exchange of betting positions.

This is achieved through a fully on-chain orderbook, collateralized vaults and oracle-driven market resolution.

Who is this guide for?

This is a technical guide to support integration with the protocol to enable automated trading, market-making and development of unique applications.

While this guide does not require a deep understanding of blockchain or Solana concepts, it does require a considerable amount of understanding of basic technology, web integration concepts, fundamental concepts of central limit orderbooks (CLOBs) and exchanges interactions.
