Turn attention into victory.
Ratioed is the competitive layer on top of X. Every battle is an original post vs a reply, scored on the engagement each one earns over 24 hours. You back the side you think the timeline will pick.
Create a market
Markets are created from X itself. No form, no fee to start one.
- 01Reply with your take
Find a post worth ratioing and reply with your take (text or an image). Your reply is your fighter.
- 02Tag @ratioed
Mention @ratioed in that same reply. A bare tag under someone else's reply backs theirs instead.
- 03Battle opens
The bot answers with your market link. A 24h ORIGINAL vs REPLY market is live, and you earn 1% of the pot.
The 24-hour lifecycle
- T+0Tag
Someone replies to a post with their take and tags @ratioed. A market opens: ORIGINAL vs REPLY. The bot replies with the link.
- 0–22hOpen
Anyone signed in with X and a linked wallet can back a side. Metrics are polled every 5–15 minutes.
- 22hLocked
No new bets. Locking early means nobody can pile onto a result that's already obvious.
- 24hSettled
Final metrics are fetched and scored automatically; the result and snapshot hash go on-chain.
- 24h+Claim
Claims open right away. Winners split 96% of the pot pro rata to their shares.
Scoring
We snapshot both tweets when the battle starts (S0) and at the end (S1). Only growth counts, so nobody gets credit for a head start.
Weighted growth in interactions.
Engagement per 1k new views — big accounts get more reach, not automatically more love.
Reply wins above 50%, original below. Inside ±0.5% the market voids.
A market voids with full refunds if it's a tie, if fewer than 10 engagement points happened, if either tweet is deleted, or if one side had no backers. The complete snapshot for every settled battle is published at /c/<id>/snapshot.json and its sha256 is stored on-chain, so anyone can recompute the result.
Early-bird pricing
The more SOL already on a side, the fewer shares your SOL buys. Bet early, or on the underdog, and you get a bigger slice of the pot if your side wins. Shares aren't tokens: nothing is minted, there's nothing to sell — they only decide your cut. The exact math →

Fair play
- Authors can't bet
Your wallet is linked to your X account, and the authors of both tweets are excluded.
- One wallet, one account
A wallet can only be linked to a single X account.
- Spike detection
Sudden engagement bursts or likes without reach flag the battle. Flagged markets are reviewed by a human before payout — never auto-voided.
- Opt-out
Anyone can ask to be excluded from battles. We skip protected accounts.
