# Technical Architecture

MONOPOLY Protocol’s technical design follows four principles: traceable data, verifiable trading, executable settlement and auditable rules.

| **Module**                               | **Main functions**                                                                                                                                                         |
| ---------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Wallet and account layer                 | Allow users to participate through self-custodial wallets, reducing unnecessary collection of personal information.                                                        |
| Market engine                            | Create markets, configure rules, and manage trading lifecycles, settlement states and market content boundaries.                                                           |
| Matching system                          | Receive signed orders, match orders and generate trade records.                                                                                                            |
| On-chain settlement contracts            | Manage Mono collateral, outcome shares, redemption, fee allocation and fund aggregation.                                                                                   |
| Data and oracle layer                    | Connect market-designated data sources, submit outcomes and support exception review.                                                                                      |
| RWA data layer                           | Organize asset data, price information, public disclosures, event data and risk labels.                                                                                    |
| Risk engine                              | Manage position limits, open interest, abnormal volatility, market pauses and risk alerts.                                                                                 |
| Security module                          | Cover smart contract security, permissions and key management, oracle data integrity, abnormal behavior monitoring, vulnerability response and emergency pause mechanisms. |
| Perpetual and leverage module            | Provide interfaces for future isolated margin, maintenance margin, mark price, liquidation and funding rate mechanisms.                                                    |
| Social and content layer                 | Support posts, information, discussion, following, opinion records and content links to assets, events and markets.                                                        |
| AI sentiment and event-probability layer | Analyze discussion, identify evidence and disagreement, track sentiment and provide research-oriented probability assessments.                                             |
| Tapeout ecosystem integration layer      | Provide planned interfaces for content association, market display, authorized trading entry points and outcome feedback, subject to cooperation and access conditions.    |

Social capabilities will be introduced in stages. The architecture is designed to maintain consistent links between an asset, an event, its discussion and its market across the protocol’s native discussion area, AI analysis, trading interface and authorized external social entry points. Integrations, including the planned Tapeout connection, do not replace the existing trading workflow. Every order must still pass signature verification, risk checks, matching and on-chain settlement.

For future perpetual and leveraged markets, the risk engine will apply isolated margin and dynamic risk controls. Maximum market open interest, per-account positions, available leverage and liquidation thresholds should be set dynamically according to liquidity, price volatility, data quality and the condition of the risk reserve.

In cases of extreme volatility, insufficient liquidity, data source anomalies or concentrated liquidation pressure, the protocol may act under preset rules to lower leverage limits, increase margin requirements, restrict new positions, pause trading in specific markets or initiate exception handling.

## MONOPOLY Protocol Data and Social Trading Architecture

![MONOPOLY Protocol Data and Social Trading Architecture](https://1276328783-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Finuqfd6d5N0HIYTIBhTS%2Fuploads%2FbwczxKdCJ85DEwu5MCR0%2Fmonopoly-data-social-architecture-en.webp?alt=media)

{% hint style="info" %}
The updated architecture connects social discussion, AI-assisted event analysis and authorized ecosystem entry points to the protocol’s existing order validation, risk control, matching, settlement and outcome-review processes. Tapeout is a planned first integration scenario, not an operational dependency of the protocol.

## Standard Protocol Workflow and Security Controls

Market operations follow a workflow of rule pre-review, trade validation, on-chain settlement, outcome review and continuous monitoring.

Market creation and rule configuration → Content, data source and risk review → Market publication → Users establish positions or trade outcome shares with Mono → Order signature verification, risk checks and matching → On-chain settlement → Market close → Preliminary outcome submission by the data and oracle layer → Public challenges and review → Redemption of winning outcome shares for Mono.

The security module operates throughout the market lifecycle, not only at settlement. Before a market opens, the protocol configures and reviews its rules, outcome sources, exception handling methods and risk parameters. During trading, the system continuously monitors abnormal orders, abnormal positions, manipulation risks, data source anomalies and anomalous contract calls. During settlement, data outcomes must pass the established source verification and challenge handling procedures before final settlement can be executed.

If a material security incident, data source failure, contract anomaly, abnormal volatility or another situation that may affect market fairness occurs, the protocol may pause affected markets, restrict new positions or initiate manual or governance review under preset rules. Once the risk has been addressed, it may resume operations or apply cancellation, postponement or another established disposition.

The protocol prioritizes established public blockchains and publicly verifiable on-chain infrastructure. Highly privileged operations, including core fund management, contract upgrades, risk parameter adjustments and emergency pauses, will use multisignature controls, timelocks, tiered authorization or other appropriate access controls. Core contracts involving fund settlement, token release, fee allocation and market rules should undergo necessary testing and security review before deployment. Specific auditors, deployment networks, permission structures and upgrade arrangements will be disclosed through public channels before or after launch.
