FAQPage Schema
How does an on-chain CLOB work on Sui?

A fully on-chain CLOB keeps order matching and settlement directly on the Sui network without off-chain intermediaries. DeepBook implements this using Move modules for limit and market order execution.

How do I place a limit or market order on a DeepBook pool?

You place a limit or market order on a DeepBook pool by using a balance manager to interact with the on-chain pool module, executing trades and managing balances directly on the Sui network.

Do I need to understand Move modules to use DeepBook for pool creation?

Yes, understanding Move-based modules like pool, balance_manager, and governance is required. This knowledge is necessary to configure pool creation, manage balances, and set governance-driven fee parameters.

What is the role of the DEEP token in DeepBook governance and staking?

The DEEP token drives governance and staking interactions within the protocol. It is used to manage governance-driven fee parameters and token economics across DeepBook v2 and v3 pools.

Can I manage pool and balance configurations across different DeepBook versions?

Yes, pool creation, balance management, and governance fee configurations are supported across both DeepBook v2 and v3. You can execute and document these mechanics for either version on the Sui network.

What are the limitations of using a fully on-chain order book on Sui?

A fully on-chain order book requires understanding Move modules and DEEP token economics, presenting a learning curve. It focuses exclusively on on-chain settlement, contrasting with systems relying on off-chain intermediaries.
