Street Duels
A trading duel is a head-to-head trading competition for a real pot. Both players stake the same amount, 0.02 to 10 SOL, or 1 to 1,000 USDT: both start with $1,000 of virtual money, and both trade real market prices, checked against the Pyth oracle. When both trading windows close, the higher portfolio value takes the pot minus the 1% fee. Nothing is actually bought or sold, only the stakes are real.
Why it is fair
- Fully async. Each player has 24 hours to place their first trade; that trade starts their own fixed window. You never wait for your opponent to take a turn.
- Long or short, no leverage. A short reserves its full size, so you can never lose more than the virtual bankroll and nobody gets liquidated. The winner is decided by trading, not by risk-of-ruin.
- No information edge at the start. Nothing about the game exists before both stakes are locked, so a lobby entry tells you nothing an opponent could exploit.
- You fill at the first price published after your trade lands. No spread and no trading fees, and because the price does not exist when you sign, holding a signed trade to see which way the market moves gains nothing.
- Sealed while it matters. Your opponent's positions and PnL stay hidden until both trading windows close, so nobody can see a finished result and lock in a risk-free win. Everything is revealed, and verifiable on-chain. At settlement.
- Non-custodial. Stakes sit in a keyless escrow that only the contract's rules can move, and anyone can trigger settlement.

Refunds and timers
- Nobody matched your duel? Cancel it after 24 hours for a 100% refund. Stake and account rent both come back.
- Forget about it and the keeper sweeps it back to you automatically after 7 days.
- A player who never places a first trade settles flat at $1,000, so stalling can't hold the pot hostage.
- Settlement is permissionless: the keeper runs it automatically, but either player, or anyone, can trigger it once both windows close.
