Why Thousands Trust BasedBets
With BasedBets, connecting my wallet was effortless, and the trustless smart contracts alongside reliable oracle feeds made everything feel rock-solid.
I’m still learning about crypto, but I already trust this platform more than any traditional betting site I’ve used.
I started with a small wager on a sports event I followed, and seeing everything on-chain gave me total confidence. Now I’m excited to explore more and learn as I go!
Common Questions
Learn How to Win
Is it safe?
Built on Coinbase’s Base chain, your wagers are secured by robust EVM smart contracts. Your funds never leave your own crypto wallet, so you’re always in control. This eliminates centralized points of failure and keeps your bets transparent.
How do I claim my winnings if my prediction is correct?
Once an event is resolved and the correct outcome is verified on-chain, you’ll see a “Claim Winnings” button next to your bet. Just click it to withdraw your payout directly to your connected wallet—no extra steps or waiting on a middleman.
What about transaction fees and gas costs?
Since BasedBets runs on Base, a Layer 2 solution built on Ethereum technology, you’ll find gas fees much lower compared to mainnet Ethereum transactions. While there are still minimal gas fees for placing bets and claiming winnings, these costs are often just a fraction of what you’d pay on the Ethereum mainnet.
I’m new to Web3. Is it complicated to get started?
We’ve designed BasedBets with new Web3 users in mind. All you need is a crypto wallet compatible with the Base network. If you already use Ethereum or other EVM chains, connecting your wallet is a familiar step. After that, you simply browse available markets, click to place a wager, and confirm the transaction!
Can I verify that the event outcomes are accurate?
Absolutely. We partner with trusted data providers and, in some markets, rely on community verifiers to confirm outcomes. All final results are stored on-chain, allowing anyone to check how an outcome was determined and ensuring transparency.
What types of events can I bet on?
We offer a wide range of categories, including Sports, Politics, Business & Finance, Entertainment, and Science. This variety means you’ll find everything from major sports championships to election results—all under one platform.
