Trueo bets the farm on Ethereum, leaves Base behind for "credibly neutral" oracle dreams 🏛️

Prediction market platform Trueo is migrating from Base to Ethereum, the project announced, citing broader integration opportunities and plans to build the next iteration of its oracle system. The move comes roughly eight months after Trueo launched on Base in March 2025.

According to Trueo, its priority after the migration will be attracting liquidity and launching the next generation of its oracle, the mechanism used to verify real-world outcomes that resolve prediction markets. The team said it chose to leave Base because Ethereum offered higher integration potential and product upside, while integrations on Base are limited to its 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 on X. The project's broader reasoning was laid out in a separate post: "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."

Trueo is ranked as the 14th-largest onchain prediction market with a total value locked of $795,687, according to DefiLlama. The platform's pivot arrives as blockchain-based prediction markets have drawn increased attention; a Chainalysis report found the World Cup generated $20 billion in blockchain prediction market volume.
