How Dexsport fits alongside prediction markets

Dexsport sponsors this page; it is a sportsbook rather than a prediction market, and we are clear about the difference.

A fixed-odds alternative

Clear prices and instant settlement where a market is thin.

Self-custody

Your funds stay in your own wallet.

Instant on-chain payouts

No wait between a settled result and your wallet.

How a price becomes a probability

On an order book or AMM, buying nudges the price; the price itself reads as the market's implied probability. [skeleton — full copy in content phase]

How a market resolves

An oracle reports the outcome; the design of that oracle and its dispute window decide how trustworthy resolution is. [skeleton]

Playing from the Netherlands?

The Dutch market is licensed through the Kansspelautoriteit (KSA); offshore crypto books are not KSA-licensed. This guide is informational, not legal advice — check your own situation before you deposit.

Treat any offshore service with care: local consumer protections do not apply, set your own limits, and never stake money you cannot lose.

Frequently asked questions

How do prediction-market prices form?

Through an order book or an automated market maker; each trade moves the price, and arbitrage keeps it near the consensus probability.

What is an oracle and why does it matter?

An oracle reports the real-world outcome that resolves a market; its design and dispute process decide how reliable that resolution is.

How do election markets differ from sports?

Elections have longer horizons, more ambiguous resolution and heavier regulation; sports resolve quickly on a clear result.

Why do liquidity and spreads matter?

A thin market has a wide spread and heavy slippage, so your real cost to enter and exit can dwarf the edge you think you have.

Is a prediction market the same as a sportsbook?

No — a market price is set by traders and can move with your order; a sportsbook offers fixed odds with a built-in margin.
