Community and safety

Chat rules, scams, play responsibly, reporting.

On this page

FlySports should be fun to watch with other people. This page covers how chat works, how we keep it friendly, how to stay safe around crypto, and where to go if something is wrong.

Chat rules

The chat on the Live page is optional and needs no wallet or account. You pick a nickname, and the server adds a short number to it (like buzzfan#4821) so two people cannot use the same name. A nickname is not an identity. It is remembered only in your own browser.

  • Be nice. No harassment, hate speech or spam.
  • No links of any kind, including spaced-out or disguised ones.
  • No wallet addresses and no seed phrases. Chat filters look for them on purpose, because public crypto chats attract “send SOL here” scams.
  • Do not repeat yourself. Near-duplicate messages are treated as spam and filtered.

Moderation

Messages are screened automatically before they appear. Chat checks for:

  • links and URLs;
  • text shaped like a wallet address or a seed phrase;
  • basic profanity;
  • near-duplicate spam.

Messages are also rate limited per account and per network address, and moderators can slow the whole room down. Moderators may remove messages, mute a handle, or block a network address at their discretion and without notice.

Staying safe from scams

  • Never share your recovery phrase or private key with anyone, for any reason.
  • Only use the site at its official addresses. Check the address bar before connecting a wallet.
  • A transaction on FlySports is a bet or a claim. Be suspicious of any prompt asking you to “approve all” tokens or sign something you do not understand.
  • Nobody can “boost” your balance or “unlock” your winnings for a fee. Test USDC is free from the faucet.
  • Consider using a separate wallet for devnet play, with nothing valuable on it. The built-in demo wallet is an easy way to try the site with no risk.

Playing responsibly

Everything on FlySports today uses test USDC with no monetary value. You cannot win or lose real money here, and it is not real-money gambling. It is a technology demo, and the Terms say so.

  • It is not meant for anyone under the age of majority where they live, or anywhere a service like this would be regulated gambling whatever the stake.
  • Treat it as a game. If you notice yourself chasing results or spending more time than you want, take a break. The race will still be there tomorrow.
  • If you are ever offered a real-money version of “FlySports” that we have not announced, it is not ours. No mainnet or real-money version exists today, and one would need a legal review before launch.

Reporting a problem

  • A bug or something that looks wrong (a bet that did not register, a claim that fails, a wrong number): tell us with the race number and, if you can, your wallet's public address and the transaction link from your wallet or the explorer. Never include a seed phrase.
  • A chat problem or abusive user: mention the handle with its number (for example name#1234) and what happened.
  • A security issue: please report it privately rather than posting it in chat or in public. Message us on X, say it is a security matter, and ask for a private way to share the details.

The best way to reach us right now is on X, @flysportsfun.
