Quick Start

Step 1: Get a Wallet

Install one of the supported wallets: MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, or Rainbow. Configure it for Base network by adding Chain ID 8453 if not already present. Most modern wallets auto-detect Base, making this step simple.

Step 2: Get USDC & ETH on Base

You'll need USDC for trading—start with $100-$300 to get meaningful positions. You'll also need ETH for gas fees—$1-$2 covers 15-20 transactions, which is plenty to start.

How to acquire Base assets: Bridge from other networks using the official Base bridge if you have funds on Ethereum, Polygon, or other chains. Buy directly via Coinbase by selecting Base network when purchasing, which is the easiest method. Swap on Base DEXs like Uniswap if you already have other tokens on Base.

Step 3: Connect & Deposit

Visit libera.xyz and click the connect wallet button in the top right. Connect your wallet and approve the connection request. Deposit USDC to your trading balance with a one-time approval transaction. Your ETH stays in your wallet for gas and doesn't need to be deposited.

Step 4: Choose Your Market

Browse available assets including BTC, ETH, SOL, and others on the markets page. Select a timeframe—Weekly is recommended for beginners due to better liquidity and lower volatility. Review the opening price and current odds to understand market sentiment.

Step 5: Place Your First Trade

Decide whether you think price will go UP or DOWN based on your analysis. Choose an order type—Limit is recommended to control your entry price. Set your price and position size based on your risk tolerance and capital. Confirm the transaction and pay $0.10-$0.30 in gas to execute.

Step 6: Monitor & Exit

Track your position in the dashboard where live P&L updates as the market moves. Exit anytime before expiration if you want to take profits or cut losses early. Or hold until settlement if you're confident in your directional bet. Claim your winnings after settlement through the claims interface.

Step 4: Copy Top Traders

Browse the leaderboard in the Ligent dashboard to find top performers. Follow traders whose strategies align with your goals and risk tolerance. Set auto-copy limits to control how much capital is allocated to copying. Trades replicate in real-time as soon as the trader you're following executes.

Position Limits (Beta Phase)

Minimum position size is $10 per market to ensure trades are meaningful. Maximum position size is $10,000 per market to ensure responsible trading during the beta testing phase. These limits ensure platform stability while we gather data and will be adjusted based on platform maturity and user feedback.

Withdrawals

Withdrawal Process: Navigate to Balance and then Withdraw in the platform interface. Enter the amount you want to withdraw, excluding any locked positions in active markets. Confirm the destination address—usually your connected wallet. Sign the transaction which requires gas of approximately $0.10-$0.30. Receive USDC in your wallet within seconds—withdrawals are instant.

Fees: No platform withdrawal fees are charged by Libera. Only Base gas of approximately $0.10-$0.30 goes to network validators.

Important Note: Claim your winnings first before withdrawing. Winnings require a separate gas transaction to claim from the SettlementEngine contract before they appear in your available balance.
