Swiv operates through time-based prediction pools. Each pool is built around a defined question, a fixed timeframe, and a verifiable outcome source.

How a Pool Works

1

Pool is created

A pool is created with a defined question, timeframe, and outcome source.
2

Enter the pool

Submit a numerical prediction and stake to enter.
3

Update anytime before deadline

You may update your prediction at any time before the pool closes.
4

Pool closes

Once the deadline is reached, no further entries or updates are allowed.
5

Outcome is submitted

The final outcome is sourced from a trusted oracle and submitted on-chain.
6

Rewards distributed

Rewards are calculated based on prediction accuracy and behavior, then distributed to participants.

Pool States

Each pool moves through the following states:

Upcoming

Pool is open for entry but has not started yet. Users can submit predictions.

Active

Pool is live and accepting predictions and updates.

Closed

Deadline reached. No further interaction is allowed.

Resolved

Final outcome has been submitted and reward calculations are complete.

Settled

Rewards have been distributed and are claimable by participants.
Once a pool moves to Closed, predictions are locked. Make sure to submit or update your prediction before the deadline.
