Event Creation
Process Overview
The Basis Predict+ platform enables creators to launch permissionless prediction events with no upfront costs or approval requirements. From initial creation through final payout, the system combines automated market making, decentralized resolution, and fair fee distribution to create sustainable prediction markets that benefit from transaction volume.
Connect Wallet and Access Chef Panel
Creators begin by connecting their Web3 wallet (MetaMask, Trust Wallet, or similar) to the Basis dApp. Once connected, they access the Event Chef Panel, a specialized interface for event creation that provides all necessary tools and validation checks.
Describe Event and Outcomes
Creators provide comprehensive event details including:
- Event title: Clear, unambiguous description
- Possible outcomes: Binary (Yes/No) or multiple choices
- Resolution criteria: Specific conditions for determining winners
- Resolution date/trigger: Time-based or event-triggered
AI Categorization and Validation
The platform's AI system automatically processes submissions:
- Categorizes events: Niche vs. high-visibility classification
- Keyword scanning: Detects prohibited content automatically
- Risk assessment: Flags potential regulatory or compliance issues
Prohibited Topics
Automated filters prevent creation of events involving:
Illegal Activities
- Violence, terrorism, drugs, weapons, financial crimes
Harmful Content
- Child exploitation, hate speech, harassment, discrimination
- Health risks, environmental harm, spam, vague events
Zero-Cost Launch
Key advantages of the Basis creation process:
- No deposit required: Zero upfront costs or bounties
- No fees: Only standard gas fees for blockchain transactions
- No approval needed: Completely permissionless system
- Instant deployment: Event goes live immediately upon creation
Launch Options
Creators choose between two launch approaches:
- Fair Launch: Skip bonding phase, immediate public trading
- Bonding Phase: Optional freeze period for creator purchases or presales
Bonding Phase (Optional)
The bonding phase is an optional freeze period that allows creators to purchase tokens themselves or conduct whitelisted presales before public trading begins. There are no minimum thresholds or requirements.
Purpose of Bonding
Creators may choose to enable a bonding phase for:
- Creator allocation: Purchase initial tokens at starting prices
- Whitelist presale: Allow specific wallets early access
- Community building: Reward early supporters with better prices
- Initial liquidity: Establish base liquidity before public trading
Bonding Mechanics
During the bonding phase:
- Token minting: Tokens minted on-demand as participants purchase
- Stable backing: Each Predict+ token is paired with STASIS (the platform's Stable+ liquidity pair)
- Price floor protection: Tokens cannot decrease below floor price
- Bonding curve pricing: Prices increase with each purchase
No Minimum Requirements
Important clarifications about the bonding phase:
- No threshold required: Event proceeds regardless of bonding amount
- No failure state: Event cannot fail due to insufficient bonding
- Flexible duration: Creator sets bonding liquidity threshold
- Optional participation: Can proceed with zero bonding purchases
Whitelist Management
For presale events, creators can manage access:
- Add wallet addresses: Specify allowed participants
- Set purchase limits: Cap individual allocations
- Vesting options: Optional token vesting schedules
Market Launch
Markets launch automatically without any approval process, either immediately (fair launch) or after the optional bonding phase completes.
