Announcement
pump.fun Hackathon
We're building baskets.app as part of the pump.fun hackathon. This competition drives us to create innovative solutions in the prediction market space, leveraging Solana's fast and low-cost infrastructure. We will be launching a token in order to be eligible for this event. CA addresses will only come from our X account, @basketsdotapp. Be aware of scams and exercise due dilligence.
Executive Summary
The Problem
Prediction markets are booming, but they remain fragmented and inaccessible to everyday investors. Users must navigate multiple platforms, conduct extensive research, and manage complex positions across different markets—crypto, sports, politics, and more.
Meanwhile, expert traders with proven track records have no efficient way to monetize their expertise beyond their own capital. There's a disconnect between those who have the knowledge and those who want to benefit from it.
Our Solution
Curated Prediction Baskets
baskets.app introduces a social layer to prediction markets. We enable expert "Creators" to curate diversified baskets of predictions across multiple markets. Think of it as a prediction market ETF managed by proven traders on-chain.
Investors can browse creators, analyze their track records, and invest in their baskets with a single click. Full transparency. No position management. Just follow the experts and grow your portfolio.
For Creators
Curate baskets, build a following, and earn 1% on every dollar invested in your strategies.
For Investors
Get instant diversification across markets by following creators with proven track records.
Value Propositions
