BCH Guru (BCH Play) is now live.

Following a beta period, the latest version introduces support for participating in price prediction contracts using Bitcoin Cash (BCH) alongside FURU tokens.

BCH Guru currently supports price prediction markets across several crypto assets (BCH, BTC, ETH, AVAX, LTC, SOL, BNB). Additional features include NFT avatar integration, customizable Guru nicknames, and a community stats dashboard.

Meet the Gurus!

Crypto communities are full of opinions on where markets and events are heading. BCH Guru provides a peer-to-peer system for expressing these views through on-chain prediction contracts, covering both price and event-based markets.

Participants can commit Bitcoin Cash (BCH) or FURU tokens to contract positions, with outcomes determined by predefined contract conditions and oracle mechanisms. Price prediction contracts are resolved automatically using external data feeds, while event prediction markets rely on oracle participants, with decentralization expanding over time.

The BCH Gurus are a CashTokens NFT collection on Bitcoin Cash, designed to interact with the BCH Guru prediction system and represent participants within the interface.

Explore the markets and compare your predictions with others.

Crypto Gurus and Furus

A "guru" is traditionally seen as a knowledgeable guide or mentor. In the context of cryptocurrency, it refers to participants who engage with market ideas and share perspectives on price and technology. The term "furu" is often used informally to describe less reliable or inconsistent viewpoints.

BCH Guru artwork reflects a broad and inclusive crypto community. The character features a crystal ball containing various crypto projects, symbolizing participation in exploring future possibilities, while being represented across a wide range of imaginative settings.

BCH Guru NFTs

Holding a BCH Guru NFT represents ownership of a unique piece of Guru artwork on the Bitcoin Cash blockchain, while also connecting participants to the broader BCH Guru ecosystem.

NFT holders may receive Guru Rewards linked to overall ecosystem activity, distributed proportionally across participating holders. These rewards are designed to support ongoing engagement within the system.

In addition, NFT holders can access features such as identity integration within the interface and participation in the wider CashTokens ecosystem. Learn more about how rewards are structured.

Why collect and hold BCH Guru tokens?

Native collection on BCH CashTokens

BCH Guru NFTs are built using CashTokens on the Bitcoin Cash network, enabling programmable, on-chain digital assets within a UTXO-based system. The collection is designed to participate in this growing ecosystem of tokenized applications and contracts.

Ecosystem integration

BCH Guru NFTs are designed to interact with the BCH Guru prediction system. Use cases include eligibility for FURU token distributions, identity integration within the interface, and access to ecosystem features.

Protocol-based rewards

NFT holders may receive Guru Rewards associated with overall system activity, distributed proportionally across participating holders.

Oracle participation

Looking ahead, BCH Guru NFTs are expected to play a role in the evolving oracle framework for event prediction markets, where NFT holders may participate in oracle processes through staking mechanisms.

Fixed and verifiable supply

A total of 10,000 BCH Guru NFTs have been created. The minting token used to generate the collection has been burned, making the fixed supply publicly verifiable on-chain.

Cross-community participation

The BCH Guru system is designed to be inclusive of different tokens and communities. Participants can engage with prediction markets across a range of crypto assets, reflecting the diverse nature of the broader ecosystem.

How to access and collect BCH Guru CashTokens

Step 1: Set up a CashTokens-compatible wallet

To receive BCH Guru NFTs, you will need a Bitcoin Cash wallet that supports CashTokens. Current options include Cashonize, Zapit, Electron Cash, and Paytaca. Set up a wallet and ensure you have a valid CashTokens receiving address.

Step 2: Access the collection page and provide your receiving address

Navigate to the collection page, select the number of BCH Guru NFTs, and enter your CashTokens receiving address. Follow the instructions to complete the transaction using a Bitcoin Cash wallet. Avoid sending transactions from exchange wallets.

Step 3: Receive your BCH Guru NFTs

Once the transaction is confirmed, your BCH Guru NFTs will be delivered to your receiving address. You will also be able to view the details of each NFT in the transaction confirmation.

Step 4: Explore the BCH Guru ecosystem

You can view your collection in the Guru collection viewer, track leaderboard positions, and explore on-chain data in Guru Science, including market metrics and trait analysis. BCH Guru NFTs can be transferred or traded on supported marketplaces such as TapSwap, or held for participation in ecosystem features such as FURU token distributions.

The Artwork of the Gurus

The BCH Guru collection focuses on original and distinctive artwork, with each NFT designed to reflect a unique character and setting. The collection emphasizes creativity and variety, with Gurus represented across a wide range of themes and environments.

Each BCH Guru NFT is a unique, verifiable digital asset on the Bitcoin Cash blockchain. The collection follows the Bitcoin Cash Metadata Registry (BCMR) standard, with metadata stored on IPFS and linked on-chain from the token genesis. NFTs can be transferred or traded on supported marketplaces.

BCH Guru Music

BCH Guru also includes a music component through The CashTokens Prophecy, an album connected to the broader project. It represents an early example of an NFT collection extending into a full music release.

The album is available on streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music, and features tracks such as "It's the BCH Guru", "Guru Life", "F.U.R.U", and "Dispelling Darkness."

This aspect of the project reflects an exploration of combining digital art, tokens, and music within a single ecosystem.

What are CashTokens?

CashTokens are native digital tokens on the Bitcoin Cash network. They enable the creation and transfer of both fungible and non-fungible assets directly on-chain, using standard BCH transactions.

Can you explain the BCH Guru price prediction system in more detail?

BCH Guru provides a peer-to-peer, on-chain system where users interact with smart contracts based on predefined conditions. Participants take positions on future price outcomes using their own wallets.

Contracts are settled automatically using external oracle data, with no custody of user funds by the platform.

What is the BCH Guru events prediction market?

The BCH Guru events system enables users to create and participate in outcome-based contracts relating to real-world events.

Participants take opposing positions within predefined contract terms, and outcomes are resolved using external data sources (oracles). The system is non-custodial and operates through on-chain interactions.

What are the limitations of the events prediction alpha?

The events system is currently in an early development phase.

At this stage:
