Wallet Troubleshooting

đź›  Wallet Troubleshooting

Having trouble connecting your wallet to PredictBase? Here’s a quick guide to help you fix common issues and get back to predicting in no time.


❌ Issue 1: Wallet Not Detected

Symptoms:

  • “Connect Wallet” does nothing

  • Site doesn't recognize MetaMask or Coinbase Wallet

Solutions:

  • Ensure your wallet extension (like MetaMask) is installed and unlocked

  • Refresh the page and try again

  • Disable browser extensions like Brave Shield, ad blockers, or privacy blockers

  • Try using https://predictbase.app in Chrome or Brave


🔄 Issue 2: Stuck on Wrong Network

Symptoms:

  • You’re on Ethereum or another chain, and PredictBase doesn’t work properly

Solutions:

  1. Open your wallet (MetaMask, etc.)

  2. Switch to Base Mainnet

  3. If Base isn’t listed, add it manually using:

Network Name: Base Mainnet

New RPC URL: https://mainnet.base.org

Chain ID: 8453

Currency Symbol: ETH

Block Explorer URL: https://basescan.org

Most dApps (including PredictBase) will also auto-prompt the network switch.


🛑 Issue 3: WalletConnect Isn’t Working

Symptoms:

  • QR code doesn’t scan or connect

  • Wallet app stuck on "Pending"

Solutions:

  • Refresh the page and try reconnecting

  • Use a different wallet app (like MetaMask Mobile or Trust Wallet)

  • Make sure your mobile device is on the same WiFi network as your desktop (for better pairing)


⚠️ Issue 4: Approvals or Bets Failing

Symptoms:

  • Approve/Bet buttons show error

  • Wallet says "transaction failed" or "insufficient funds"

Solutions:

  • Make sure you have enough USDC for the bet

  • Also check you have ETH on Base to cover gas fees

  • Reconnect your wallet and try again

  • Lower your gas settings or retry later during low network activity


đź§Ľ Still Not Working?

Try these:

  • Disconnect wallet → refresh site → reconnect again

  • Clear your browser cache and cookies

  • Use an incognito window

  • Switch to a different browser or device
