Earning ScorePoints
SP from Correct Votes
- Correct votes earn ScorePoints - The more accurate your predictions, the more SP you earn
- Consistency matters - Regular accurate voting builds SP over time
- Heavy rewards for accuracy - Correct votes are heavily rewarded to prioritize signal over volume
- No capital required - SP is earned from knowledge, not wealth
SP Calculation
SP is calculated based on:
- Prediction accuracy - Correct votes earn SP
- Consistency - Regular participation and accuracy
- Difficulty - More difficult predictions may earn bonus SP
Important: SP reflects knowledge and accuracy, not capital. A player with low or no USDC can still rank highly through accuracy and consistency.
Optional USDC Participation
Important: USDC participation is optional, opt-in, and only available where permitted by law.
If you choose to participate with USDC (where permitted):
What USDC Participation Adds
- Multiplies rewards - USDC can amplify the rewards you earn from correct votes
- Does not change game rules - The competition mechanics remain the same

How USDC Participation Works
- Connect your wallet - Use any Web3 wallet (MetaMask, WalletConnect, etc.)
- Verify availability - USDC features are only available in permitted regions
- Add USDC - Optionally add USDC to multiply rewards from correct votes
- Vote as normal - Voting mechanics remain the same
- Amplified rewards - Correct votes with USDC earn multiplied rewards
What Changes with USDC

- Network: Requires blockchain network for USDC transactions
- Availability: Restricted by jurisdiction
What stays the same:
- Match selection and probabilities
- Voting interface and flow

- ScorePoints calculation (based on accuracy)
- Leaderboard ranking (based on SP, not capital)
