How to Bet in Viral Markets
Viral Markets are easy to join and designed for quick, mobile-friendly betting.
Steps to place your first Viral Market bet
Browse Markets: Visit the Viral Markets section on the CalledIt homepage. Each market tile shows:
Question: E.g., “Dog vs. Cat”
Choices: The two outcomes (e.g., Dog, Cat)
Pool Size: Total USDC in the pool
Countdown Timer: Time until betting closes (10–60 minutes)
Market Category: E.g., Crypto, Meme, Pop Culture
Market ID: Unique identifier for the market
Past Videos: Watch previous outcome clips Click a tile to view details and bet.
Place a Bet:
Ensure your crypto wallet (e.g., MetaMask, Phantom) is connected with USDC funds. See Connecting a Wallet (#connecting-a-wallet) for setup.
Select an outcome (e.g., “Dog”).
Enter your bet amount in USDC.
Confirm the transaction via your wallet.
Watch the Timer: The countdown timer shows when the market closes. No bets are accepted after this point.
View the Outcome: When the timer hits zero, Chainlink VRF selects the winner, and a random AI-generated video clip plays to reveal the result (e.g., a Dog video if Dog wins).
Claim Winnings: If you bet on the winning outcome, go to “My Bets” or the market page, click “Claim Winnings,” and confirm the transaction. Winnings are sent directly to your wallet. If the market is void (only one side funded), you’ll see a “Claim Refund” option.
