Discover & Spot

Discover

The Discover page is the market entry point. It requests indexed Monad pool data through MonTerminal's GeckoTerminal gateway and shows three views:

• Trending — pools receiving current interest.
• New pairs — recently indexed pools.
• Top volume — pools ordered by trading activity.

Rows may include token identity, pair age, price change, volume, liquidity, market capitalization, and transaction counts. Selecting a row opens a deep-linked token terminal.

Token verification

Opening a token is not just a UI route. The client uses Monad RPC to:

1. call eth_getCode for the address;
2. read standard ERC-20 metadata;
3. find indexed pools;
4. verify supported pool/factory relationships;
5. choose the deepest supported market.

A truthful error appears if any required stage fails. A valid ERC-20 without supported liquidity is not described as an invalid token.

Spot terminal

The terminal combines several independent live sources:

Surface	Source
Token metadata and balances	Monad RPC
Pool identity and liquidity state	Monad RPC + factory checks
Candles and recent swaps	GeckoTerminal
Market discovery	GeckoTerminal
Supplemental price/pair lookup	DexScreener
AMM depth	Pool tick liquidity

AMM depth is not a user order book

The bid/ask ladder labelled AMM Depth is derived from concentrated-liquidity ticks in the selected pool. It is not a fabricated list of MonTerminal user orders.

Recent trades are indexed pool swaps. Open MonTerminal orders are shown separately in the Orders area.

An invalid address should display “No contract found at this address,” while an RPC outage should display a network-specific error with a retry action.
