Hello, in this article I will talk about how to create a market id that is 100% compatible with OpenBook + Raydium and has high length values. By the time you read my article to the end, you will have created an Openbook Market Id for only 0.25 SOL.

If you want to issue a token on the Solana network and want your project to be traded on Raydium.io, creating an “Openbook Market ID” is a mandatory step, which unfortunately costs around 3 SOL with storage and transaction fees. If you want to reduce these costs to around 0.4–0.55 SOL, you need to reduce the “length” values and when you reduce these values, users will be exposed to frequent errors in your transactions on Raydium.io, which will greatly affect the growth potential of your project. Well, if you are wondering how to create Openbook Market Id with high length values for 0.25 SOL, you can continue reading my article.

What’s New in Openbook V2

Openbooklab.space is one of the first sites to integrate Openbook v2 open source software.
