Funding
Funding in PredictDog is product-aware. The right deposit or balance depends on what you are trying to do.
This section explains:
- how deposits and withdrawals fit into the product
- why cross-chain funding can involve bridge timing and multiple statuses
- why a funding prompt can sometimes be about fee recovery instead of a new deposit
Core rule
Do not assume any available balance is automatically usable everywhere.
In PredictDog, the important question is:
which rail does this product action require right now?
That is the balance you should pay attention to.
What users usually need to know
- deposit addresses and supported routes can vary by chain family
- bridge timing and status visibility are not identical on every route
- quotes, balances, and final settlement are related but not identical concepts
- some products can create a later fee-recovery need after the main trade succeeds
