Market Creation Terms

✍️ Market Creation Terms

Creating a market on PredictBase is permissionless — but it comes with important responsibilities. To keep the platform fair, ethical, and reliable, all market creators must follow these terms.

🧱 Basic Requirements

By creating a market, you agree that:

• Your question must be clear, objective, and not misleading.

• The resolution criteria must be verifiable through a reliable source (URL or description).

• The market end date must occur before the event starts. If it doesn't, the market may be canceled.

• If a market cannot be resolved fairly, it may be canceled.

• Fees paid for market creation are non-refundable, even if the market is rejected or canceled.

• Created markets go through an admin review process and may take up to 24 hours for approval.

📜 Admin Rights

PredictBase admins reserve the right to:

• Reject or cancel markets that are vague, speculative, unverifiable, or unethical.

• Make minor edits to the market title, resolution source, or category for clarity and consistency.

• Cancel markets where events are impossible to resolve objectively.

This ensures the integrity and trustworthiness of all markets on PredictBase.

📈 Good Market Examples

✅ Clear and Verifiable:

• "Will Bitcoin close above $70,000 on June 30, 2025?"

• "Will Candidate A win the 2026 presidential election?"

• "Will Team X win the championship game on July 15, 2025?"

Features:

• Clear question

• Verifiable outcome

• Specific end date and resolution criteria

🚫 Bad Market Examples

❌ Vague, Misleading, or Unverifiable:

• "Will crypto prices go up?" (Too vague)

• "Will Team Y have a good season?" (What defines "good"?)

• "Will I be happy next year?" (Subjective and unverifiable)

Features:

• No clear resolution

• Subjective or speculative wording

• Difficult or impossible to verify

🛠 Admin Review Process

All newly created markets must pass a quick review:

• ✅ Approved → The market goes live.

• ❌ Rejected → The market is canceled and will not go live (creation fee remains non-refundable).

Reviews typically happen within 24 hours.

💰 Creator Earnings

If your market is approved and live:

• You will earn 1% of the total volume placed on your market.

• Creator revenue is automatically paid out in USDC once the market resolves.
