On-chain wagers for off-chain chaos — spun up right from your social feed.

🛠 Use Case

Sidebets brings prediction markets to your social graph — frictionless, fast, and fun.

• You’re in a Telegram group, Discord group or Farcaster thread arguing about whether Trump will tweet tomorrow or if Solana flips Ethereum.
• Someone types /sidebet 100 USDC Trump tweets tomorrow YES/NO.
• Instantly, a smart contract gets spun up, and users can join the bet from the chat.
• After the outcome, the market resolves via trusted oracles or a decentralized resolution protocol.

No dApp-switching, no wallet friction — just pure social betting.
