# Creation Phase

A creator submits a new market to FORE Predict, setting the parameters for: 

* Market prompt and categorization
* Prediction phase closure
* Validation phase start
* Verification source
* Starting odds

An ERC721 mNFT is received by the creator, which can later be used to claim the market creator rewards (0.5% of the total market size)
