Prediction Market Trueo to Move From Base to Ethereum
Key Takeaways
- •Trueo plans to migrate its prediction market platform from the Base layer-2 network to Ethereum mainnet.
- •The project initially chose Base when it launched in March 2025, citing elevated Ethereum gas costs and experimental features in its application at the time.
- •Trueo contends Ethereum offers broader integration potential, noting that opportunities on Base are confined to its immediate ecosystem.
- •After the migration, Trueo intends to prioritize attracting liquidity and launching the next generation of its oracle system, which verifies real-world outcomes used to settle prediction markets.
- •According to DefiLlama, Trueo ranks as the 14th-largest onchain prediction market, with a total value locked of approximately $795,687.
Prediction Market Trueo to Move From Base to Ethereum
Prediction market platform Trueo plans to migrate from Base to Ethereum, citing broader integration opportunities and plans to build the next iteration of its oracle system.
The project launched on Base in March 2025, when it said an Ethereum layer-2 network was the right choice for a new application, as gas costs on Ethereum mainnet were still elevated and some features of its app were experimental. Trueo now says Ethereum mainnet offers greater integration potential.
After the migration, the platform’s stated priorities are attracting liquidity and launching the next generation of its oracle — the system used to verify real-world outcomes that are used to resolve prediction markets.
Trueo said the move to Ethereum offers higher integration potential and product upside, noting that integrations on Base are limited to the immediate ecosystem.
“Ethereum is the best chain for the most credibly neutral and truthful oracle system and prediction markets,” Trueo co-founder, known as “Lumberg,” said in a post on X.

“As a new app and experiment, an L2 like Base was the right choice for many reasons. At the time, mainnet gas costs were still elevated and some features of our app were experimental,” Trueo said on X.
“The final form of Trueo is to be a platform that is widely adopted, broadly integrated, fully permissionless, mostly immutable, and highly credible. Ethereum is the best fit for this combination of properties.”
According to DefiLlama, Trueo is ranked as the 14th-largest onchain prediction market, with a total value locked of $795,687.
