Comprehensive Prediction Mechanics and Event Regulations
This regulatory document defines the specific operational rules, market definitions, and settlement procedures governing all interactions within the decentralized prediction interface. A "Participant" is defined as any individual utilizing a digital wallet to execute a position against the liquidity pools. A "Prediction" constitutes a binding agreement executed via smart contract on the outcome of a designated event. The "Line" represents the curated list of events – ranging from sports competitions to entertainment outcomes – accompanied by their respective dynamic multipliers.
By connecting your wallet and interacting with the protocol, you explicitly acknowledge that you have reviewed and fully accepted these comprehensive event regulations. Because all operations are executed on an immutable blockchain, we retain the right to modify these rules for future events, but any prediction already confirmed on the public ledger will be strictly governed by the rules in place at the exact moment of its cryptographic timestamp.
Prediction Execution Fundamentals
The core function of the protocol is to accept predictions on a wide array of global events. Participants must be of legal majority in their jurisdiction and bear complete responsibility for understanding the legal status of digital gambling within their region. You are also solely responsible for reporting any accumulated digital assets to your relevant tax authorities.
We endeavor to ensure that all data displayed on the interface – including team names, match durations, and live scorelines – is accurate. However, this information is provided strictly for context and informational orientation. We assume no liability for minor typographical errors or delays in the live data feed caused by network latency. Should a discrepancy occur, we strongly advise participants to consult independent, authoritative sources to verify real-time match statistics.
Categorization of Markets
The interface accommodates various strategic approaches through distinct prediction categories:
-
Single Market Execution: A position taken on a single, isolated outcome. The final return is determined mathematically by multiplying your initial stake by the specific odds locked in at the moment of execution.
-
Combo Sequences: An aggressive strategy involving a series of unrelated predictions grouped into a single smart contract. To yield a return, every individual outcome within the sequence must be correctly predicted. A single incorrect outcome renders the entire sequence a loss. The final payout multiplier is calculated by multiplying the odds of all selected events together. The maximum allowable multiplier for a Combo sequence is set at 500x. Participants are strictly prohibited from linking dependent events (e.g., predicting a player to score the first goal and predicting the same player's team to win the World Cup) within a single Combo.
If an event within a Combo is officially canceled or indefinitely postponed, that specific leg of the sequence is nullified and recalculated with a multiplier of 1.0, preserving the rest of the active sequence.
Standard and Advanced Market Dynamics
The protocol provides access to a comprehensive suite of market outcomes to suit any analytical strategy.
Primary Outcomes (1X2)
The most fundamental market involves predicting the outright result of a match. You may select the first participant to win (1), the match to end in a draw (X), or the second participant to win (2).
Double Chance Variants
To mitigate exposure, participants can cover two potential outcomes simultaneously. Selecting "1X" means you secure a win if the first team wins or the match is drawn. Selecting "12" removes the draw condition, requiring either team to secure an outright victory.
Selecting "X2" covers a victory for the second team or a draw.
Tournament Progress and Outrights
These markets require predicting the long-term success of a participant. You might predict a nation to reach the semi-finals or to win the entire tournament outright. If you utilize an asset like Tether to predict a champion and that participant officially withdraws from the competition before it begins, the smart contract will automatically refund your stake at odds of 1.0.
Statistical Totals and Handicaps
For granular analysis, the platform offers Over/Under (Totals) markets, where you predict whether the total number of specific occurrences (like goals, yellow cards, or corner kicks) will exceed or fall short of a predetermined number.
Handicap markets apply a virtual point or goal advantage/disadvantage to a team before the match begins. If you back a team with a +2.5 handicap, your prediction is successful even if that team loses the actual match by a single goal, as the virtual advantage covers the deficit.
Complex Asian Dynamics
For advanced users, the protocol supports Double Asian Handicaps and Double Totals. These markets utilize quarter-point increments (e.g., +1.25, Over 2.75). When a position is executed on a quarter-point market, the smart contract automatically divides your stake into two equal halves, applying them to the nearest half-point intervals.
For example, if you place a $100 position on Over 2.75 goals, $50 is placed on Over 2.5 and $50 is placed on Over 3.0. This nuanced approach allows for partial wins and partial refunds depending on the exact final score, providing a highly sophisticated tool for risk management.
Combo Enhancements (Combo+)
To incentivize the construction of extensive predictive sequences, the protocol features an automated multiplier boost known as "Combo+". This feature algorithmically enhances the final payout of a winning sequence based on the number of qualifying events included:
-
Sequences containing 4 events receive a 1.08x boost.
-
Sequences containing 6 events receive a 1.15x boost.
-
Sequences containing 8 events receive a 1.20x boost.
-
Sequences containing 10 or more events receive a massive 1.50x boost.
To activate the Combo+ enhancement, every individual leg within the sequence must possess odds of 1.4 or greater. This enhancement is available for both pre-match and live environments, regardless of the digital asset used, be it USDT or Ethereum. If match cancellations reduce the number of active legs below the minimum threshold, the boost is deactivated.
Settlement Disruptions and Event Cancellations
Predictions are only valid if executed prior to the official commencement of the event, barring specific live-market offerings. If a pre-match prediction is somehow processed after the event has started, the smart contract is programmed to void the transaction and issue a full refund. When utilizing a blockchain-native gateway like Dexsport, the exact timestamp of the block confirms the validity of your entry.
If a scheduled event is postponed and fails to commence within 36 to 48 hours of its original start time, all associated markets will be voided. If an event begins but is subsequently abandoned and not concluded within 12 to 18 hours, markets will be settled based on the scoreline at the exact moment of interruption. Markets whose outcomes were already definitively determined prior to the abandonment (such as the "First Half Winner") will be honored and paid out accordingly. For clarity on global abandonment procedures, consulting the institutional rules set forth by organizations like FIFA is highly recommended.
eSports Execution Rules
The protocol fully supports competitive digital gaming, requiring specific settlement logic. Matches are frequently determined by a "Best of" series (Bo1, Bo3, Bo5). The winner is the participant who secures the requisite number of map victories.
If a team is handed a technical defeat due to connectivity drops, server instability, or failure to arrive on time, the overarching match markets and map handicaps are typically voided and refunded at 1.0.
Unique eSports markets include:
-
First Blood: Predicting the first character elimination by the opposing team. Environmental deaths or neutral creep executions are disregarded.
-
First Roshan/Objective: Predicting which squad successfully secures the first major neutral objective on the map.
-
Map Duration: Predicting whether the round will conclude over or under a specific minute threshold, counting only fully completed minutes.
Smart Contract Cashout Functionality
The platform may present an automated "Cashout" offer, allowing participants to prematurely terminate an active position before the event concludes. This feature locks in a guaranteed return or mitigates a potential loss based on the real-time probability shifts in the liquidity pool. Accepting a Cashout immediately overrides the initial terms of your prediction. Please note that Cashout availability is dynamic and may be temporarily suspended without notice during moments of extreme match volatility, such as a penalty review or a red card incident.
