Return to Base

TERMS OF CHAOS

// TERMS OF USE // READ BEFORE TAKING PART

These Terms are between you and the operator of BaseDare, the service available at basedare.xyz. Some features use public blockchain transactions. Free adventures, community plans and paid work have different requirements. Read the rules shown for the activity before taking part; unsafe or illegal behavior is not welcome here.

1. The Protocol is Experimental

BaseDare is experimental code running on Base. If you fund, claim, or verify through the protocol, you accept that the system is still early-stage software and should be used carefully. Where a supported bounty contract is used, its rules control escrow and settlement. Paid features are in a limited rollout; availability does not establish that every payment path is ready for general use.

2. Adults Only

BaseDare is for people 18 years or older. Dares happen at real venues — bars, clubs, night markets — and payouts move real money. If you are under 18, this is not your app yet.

3. Immutable Actions

Blockchain transactions are final. Once you fund a bounty or interact with the contract, there is no platform-side undo button. Double-check before you sign.

4. Real World, Real Judgment

DARES: No self-harm, no illegal activity, no reckless physical danger. You remain responsible for your own choices and conduct. If someone ignores common sense, that liability does not jump back onto the protocol.

MEETUPS: Free meetups are gatherings between adults who choose to show up. We do not vet attendees, run background checks, or supervise events. Meet in public, bring your judgment, and leave if something feels off.

VENUES: Venues are real businesses with their own rules. House rules apply on top of ours. A dare is never an excuse to trespass, damage property, harass staff, or skip the bill.

5. Your Proof, Shared Stage

You retain ownership of your uploads. For shared adventures, the display consent you accept allows BaseDare to display the post in its public discovery features, including the map and shared-adventure feed. Opting in to be contacted about promotion is not permission for commercial reuse. Paid content work is governed by the specific deliverables and usage permissions accepted for that mission; submitting content does not automatically grant advertising or social-channel reuse rights.

You must own or have permission for what you upload. Get permission from identifiable people you film and follow venue rules. We can decline or remove listings that break these Terms. Review reasons and available appeal or support routes appear in the relevant flow. Shared-adventure listing approval is not verified attendance or entitlement to payment.

Adventure uploads use public media storage even while review is pending. Withdrawing a listing removes it from BaseDare discovery; copies and public storage links may persist. Do not upload private or sensitive footage. See the Privacy Policy.

6. Messaging is Earned

Friend requests are separate from direct messaging. Accepting a friend does not reveal live location or bypass crossed-paths eligibility at a venue. Do not use messaging to harass, spam, scam, or pressure anyone. We can revoke messaging access without notice from anyone who does.

7. Market Conditions

Crypto markets move. Even when a bounty is denominated in USDC, the broader environment around gas, wallets, and asset access can change. Only commit amounts you can afford to lock up.

8. Critical Legal Distinctions

NON-GAMBLING PLATFORM: BaseDare is NOT a gambling platform. Dares are conditional bounties/grants for verified real-world performance. There are no wagers, odds, or chance mechanisms.

NON-CUSTODIAL NATURE: Self-serve bounty escrow and managed-service invoices are different payment routes. Supported bounty funds are governed by the relevant contract. Managed-service charges and reward pools are recorded separately under the agreed invoice terms. BaseCash venue credit is also separate.

REFEREE WALLET LIMITATIONS: A referee service executes supported review and settlement actions subject to the deployed contract and application permissions. A review decision alone is not confirmation that a transfer has completed.

REFUND POLICY: Bounty refunds follow the applicable contract, activity status and review process; they may require processing and are not promised instantly. Managed-service refunds or credits follow the agreed delivery terms. Contact support for failed or disputed transactions. Nothing here removes rights that applicable law does not allow to be excluded.

OPERATING ENTITY: "BaseDare", "we", and "us" refer to the operator of basedare.xyz. Formal operating entity details will be added when available.
