Decentralised Wagering and Settlement Guidelines

This comprehensive regulatory framework dictates the specific operational rules, market definitions, and settlement algorithms governing all predictions executed on the platform. A "Participant" is classified as any user who connects their cryptographic wallet to interact with the decentralized liquidity pools. A "Prediction" represents a binding digital agreement executed via smart contract on the outcome of a designated event, where the losing party fulfils its financial obligation algorithmically. The "Line" signifies the active list of sporting, political, or entertainment events accompanied by their respective dynamic odds.

By interfacing with the protocol, you explicitly acknowledge and agree to comply strictly with these operational mechanics. Because all transactions are facilitated exclusively through immutable blockchain technology, the rules established at the exact moment of your transaction's cryptographic timestamp apply permanently, regardless of any future modifications made to this document.

General Conditions of Market Acceptance

The primary objective of the protocol is to supply a decentralised gateway for participants to forecast the outcomes of various global competitions. Connecting to the protocol and securing a position is restricted entirely to individuals who are of the legal age of majority. Participants carry the sole and absolute responsibility for ensuring that engaging with digital prediction markets complies with the legal statutes of their specific jurisdiction. You are likewise fully responsible for documenting and reporting any accumulated digital assets to your local fiscal authorities.

While we strive to ensure absolute data accuracy, the information displayed on the interface – including live scorelines, match durations, and team labels – is provided strictly for orientation and informational purposes. We disclaim any liability for minor typographical errors or latency in the live data feed. We strongly urge participants to cross-reference live statistics with independent, authoritative broadcasts.

Classifications of Predictive Engagement

The interface accommodates a diverse range of strategic approaches through specific prediction categories:

  • Single Execution: A straightforward position taken on a single, isolated outcome. The potential payout is calculated mathematically by multiplying the staked digital asset by the specific odds of that outcome locked at the time of execution.

  • Accumulator (Combo) Sequences: An aggressive, high-yield strategy involving a linked series of predictions covering multiple independent events. To secure a payout on an Accumulator, every single prediction within the sequence must be correct. If a single outcome fails, the entire smart contract resolves as a loss. The final payout multiplier is derived by multiplying the odds of all selected outcomes together. The maximum allowable multiplier limit for this type of sequence is capped at 500x. Participants are strictly forbidden from embedding highly correlated events (e.g., predicting an athlete to score a hat-trick and predicting the same athlete's team to win the match) within a single Accumulator.

Should an event within an Accumulator sequence be officially postponed or canceled beyond the acceptable timeframes defined in these rules, that specific leg of the sequence is nullified and recalculated with a neutral multiplier of 1.0, thereby preserving the remainder of the active sequence.

Standard and Advanced Market Outcomes

The protocol grants access to a comprehensive suite of market outcomes tailored for granular analysis.

Primary Outcomes (1X2)

The most fundamental market involves predicting the outright result of a regulation 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). If the match concludes precisely as predicted at the end of regular time, the contract executes an immediate payout.

Double Chance Variants

To minimise exposure, participants can cover two of the three potential outcomes simultaneously. Selecting "1X" denotes a win if the first team wins or the match is drawn. Selecting "12" removes the draw condition entirely, 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 forecasting the long-term success of a participant. You might predict a specific nation to advance past the group stage or to win an entire tournament outright. If you utilise an asset like Ethereum to predict a champion and that participant officially withdraws from the competition prior to its commencement, the smart contract will automatically refund your stake at odds of 1.0.

Statistical Totals and Virtual Handicaps

For advanced analysis, the platform offers Over/Under (Totals) markets, where you predict whether the total number of specific occurrences will exceed or fall short of a predetermined threshold.

Handicap markets apply a virtual point or goal advantage to a team before the event begins. If you back a team with a +1.5 handicap, your prediction is successful even if that team loses the actual match by exactly one goal, as the virtual advantage covers the deficit on the ledger.

Complex Asian Market Dynamics

For sophisticated users, the protocol supports Double Asian Handicaps and Double Totals. These markets utilise quarter-point increments (e.g., +1.25, Over 2.75).

When a position is executed on a quarter-point market, the underlying smart contract automatically bisects your stake into two equal halves, applying them to the nearest half-point intervals. For instance, a $200 position on Over 2.75 goals is split into a $100 position on Over 2.5 and a $100 position on Over 3.0. Depending on the exact final score, this structural approach allows for partial wins and partial refunds, delivering a highly nuanced tool for strict risk management.

Combo Enhancements (Combo+)

To reward users who construct expansive predictive sequences, the protocol incorporates an automated multiplier boost designated as "Combo+". This feature algorithmically increases the final payout of a winning sequence based on the volume of qualifying events included:

Number of Events in Sequence

Algorithmic Payout Boost

4 Events

1.08x Multiplier

6 Events

1.15x Multiplier

8 Events

1.20x Multiplier

10+ Events

1.50x Multiplier

To successfully activate the Combo+ enhancement, every individual leg within the sequence must possess odds of 1.4 or greater. This automated enhancement is available across both pre-match and live environments, regardless of the digital asset deployed, whether it be USDT or another token. If match cancellations reduce the number of active legs below the minimum qualifying threshold, the boost is seamlessly deactivated.

Interruption Protocols and Event Cancellations

Predictions are deemed valid only 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 engineered to void the transaction and issue a full refund. When engaging through a blockchain-native ecosystem like Dexsport, the exact cryptographic timestamp of the block irrefutably 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 and settled at 1.0. 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 mathematically decided prior to the abandonment (such as "First Team to Score") will be honoured and paid out. For definitive clarity on global abandonment procedures, consulting the institutional guidelines established by organisations like FIFA is highly recommended.

eSports Execution Regulations

The protocol fully supports competitive digital gaming, which demands highly specific settlement logic. Matches are frequently determined by a "Best of" series format. The outright winner is the participant who secures the required number of map victories.

If a team suffers a technical defeat due to severe 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 which team secures the first character elimination. Environmental deaths or neutral creep executions are strictly disregarded.

  • First Roshan/Objective: Predicting which squad successfully secures the first major neutral objective on the digital map.

  • Map Duration: Predicting whether the round will conclude over or under a specific minute threshold, calculating only fully completed minutes.

Smart Contract Cashout Mechanics

The platform may generate an automated "Cashout" offer, permitting participants to prematurely terminate an active position prior to the event's conclusion. This feature allows you to lock in a guaranteed return or mitigate a potential loss based on the real-time probability shifts within the liquidity pool. Accepting a Cashout permanently overwrites the initial terms of your prediction. This feature is dynamically managed by the protocol and may be temporarily suspended without notice during moments of extreme match volatility.
