Predict crypto prices. Stake USDC. Win the pool.
UpDown is a parimutuel prediction platform on Solana. Pick a crypto asset (BTC, ETH, SOL), predict whether its price will go UP or DOWN within a timeframe, and stake USDC. If your side wins, you split the entire pool proportionally. All bets, payouts, and refunds happen on-chain — transparent and verifiable.

Claim Winnings

Single-elimination bracket tournaments. Pay an entry fee, predict prices in 1v1 matches, and the last player standing wins the entire prize pool.
1
Register
Pay the entry fee to join. All entry fees go directly into the prize pool.
2
Bracket
Players are placed in a single-elimination bracket. Each round is a 1v1 match.
3
Predict
Before each match, both players have a limited time window to predict the closing price of the asset (e.g. BTC/USD).
4
Match resolves
After predictions close, the match runs for the configured duration while the price moves. When it ends, the player closest to the final price advances.
5
Repeat
Winners advance through the bracket — semifinals, finals — until one player remains.
6
Claim prize
The tournament winner can claim the full prize pool (minus 5% platform fee) directly to their wallet.
