🚀 Launch Your Decentralized Prediction Market in Minutes

🚨 Big Announcement (05 Jan 2026): Forkast is now Kuest. This repo has been reset for clean redeploys — expect to redeploy from scratch, reset the DB, and update your env vars, URLs, and docs.

Open-source project to launch and monetize Web3 prediction markets, inspired by Polymarket, but with full transparency and control.

✨ Core Benefits

Tired of centralized platforms? Want to build your own business in the DeFi space? This project offers you:

• ⚡ Rapid Launch: Get your prediction market website running in minutes, not months.
• 📈 Ready Events & Liquidity: We sync popular events from platforms like Polymarket, ensuring you have active markets with initial liquidity for your users.
• 💰 Earn Fees Automatically: Earn 1% of traded volume on your fork, directly via smart contracts. Another 1% goes to maintain backend infrastructure, blockchain operations, and continuous development of the base protocol.
• 🛠️ Hassle-Free & Transparent: Infrastructure is managed for you, while you keep full control over the code and operations. Focus on growing your community and contributing to a decentralized ecosystem.
• 💸 Arbitrage Opportunities: Your users can profit from price differences between your platform and other prediction markets like Polymarket, creating natural trading volume and liquidity.
• ⚡ Built on Polygon: Fast transactions with minimal fees, ideal for traders and scaling your market.
• 🗳️ Fair Event Resolution (via UMA/Oracles): A global voting area ensures fairness and security of results.

   • Reown AppKit: Get Project ID at dashboard.reown.com
   • Better Auth: Generate secret at better-auth.com

3. Go to your Vercel project dashboard
4. Navigate to Settings → Environment Variables
5. Click "Import .env" button
6. Select your edited .env.example file

5. Redeploy your project
