About

Dare Market is a crypto-based Web3 platform launched by CEO Isla Rose Perfito on the Solana blockchain in September 2025. The platform allows users to post, fund or accept real-world dares and earn rewards in cryptocurrency when proof of completion is uploaded, with the platform taking a 6.9 percent commission. The platform began a marketing campaign in October 2025 under the tagline, "the most unhinged platform on the internet."

Online, the site drew reactions that compared it to the plot of the dystopian science-fiction television show Black Mirror, specifically, the episode "Common People," as well as the film Nerve, both of which feature a website that prompts young users to perform dangerous pranks for money.

History

Dare Market^[10] is a Web3 platform on the Solana blockchain that enables users to post, fund or accept real-world dares and gather rewards in the form of cryptocurrency. The site was founded by CEO Isla Rose Perfito, who said in an October 2025 interview with Decrypt^[1] that the site offers what "this generation wants most: money and fame."

The platform began rolling out its marketing strategy with a short advertisement posted on September 4th, 2025, to the X^[2] page @daremarket, featuring a number of fashionably dressed women and a montage of potential challenges. The post, which gathered over 1,000 likes in a month, allowed the first 1,000 people signing up to gain early access to the platform.

Features

Users access Dare Market via its website or mobile app and connect a crypto wallet that supports USDC (a stablecoin based on USD) or SOL (Solana). Users can post a dare by specifying the task, setting a bounty in crypto and choosing whether others can accept it or fund it ("fund-my-dare").

Others can accept existing dares, complete the task, typically with video proof, and then submit it for review. If validated, the bounty is paid out, with Dare Market taking a roughly 6.9 percent commission. The community can also vote or comment on the dares, with submissions being embedded under each challenge page.
