SX Bet is a decentralized, peer-to-peer sports prediction market. Instead of betting against a house, users trade directly against each other through an open orderbook — the same model used by financial exchanges, applied to sports markets. On SX, bettors set their own odds, and the market determines fair prices through competition.

How it works

1

Makers post orders

A user (the maker) submits an order specifying an outcome, stake amount, and desired odds. This order sits in the orderbook until matched.
2

Takers fill orders

Another user (the taker) submits a fill order against it. Both sides’ funds are locked in the Escrow smart contract.
3

Game settles

After the game concludes, a reporter submits the result on-chain. The Escrow contract automatically pays out to the winner.

Tokens

SX Bet uses USDC as the primary wagering token.

The exchange model

Because SX Bet is a true orderbook exchange — not a traditional sportsbook — the dynamics are different from what most bettors are used to.
