Hypecall turns the "investing at 20 likes" comments you see on viral videos into an actual game. You spot a video before it blows up, "call it," and get scored on how right you were — no real money involved.

Find a real video (paste a YouTube/Shorts link), hit "Call it" while it still has a low like count. A 24-hour timer starts — when it ends, your score locks in based on how much the video grew. You can only call each video once, ever, so timing matters.

Yes — "Cash out early" on the On the Clock page settles your pick immediately using the current numbers, giving up any further growth. Useful if you want a card in hand right now instead of waiting.

Picks are what you spend to call a video. You have up to 5 at a time, and they refill on their own — 1 every 30 minutes.

Two multipliers decide your reward: an early-bird bonus (the fewer likes a video had when you called it, the bigger the bonus) and a creator-size factor (the smaller/less-known the channel, the bigger the factor). Both lock in the moment you call — call an unknown creator's video at 20 likes and you get the biggest possible multiplier; call a huge channel's video and the multiplier shrinks a lot, even if the raw growth is bigger. The exact tiers are on the "How scoring works" page.

reward = growth × early-bird bonus × creator-size factor × boost × 10, locked in when your pick settles. The full breakdown is on the "How scoring works" page.

Every settled call mints you a card — title, rarity (Silver/Gold/Diamond based on the odds), a Score, and a serial number. Cards can be applied as a boost to a future pick, burned (3 cards → 1 Pick), listed in the Auction House, or shown off in your Profile Showcase.

Score reflects how many likes the video actually gained while your pick was open — a rough measure of how big a win that card represents.

Apply a card to a future pick before calling for a reward boost — Silver +10%, Gold +25%, Diamond +60%. Each card can be used as a boost up to 3 times before it's tapped out (it stays in your inventory either way, just without boost charges left).

Call 10 videos from the same creator (all settled) and you'll automatically earn a bonus "Fan Card" for that channel, on top of your normal cards. Fully repeatable — keep supporting the same creator for more.

A real marketplace — list your cards for timed auction (with an optional instant Buy Now price), bid Picks on other users' listings, search and filter by rarity/score/serial number. You can cancel your own listing anytime before it sells.

Power Clash — pick 3 cards, and each round secretly reveals whether higher or lower Score wins. Try it solo against a practice hand in Arcade, or queue for a real opponent in Duels.

Pick up to 5 of your favorite cards to display publicly on your profile. Use "View as others see it" to check how it looks to visitors.

No — Picks can't currently be purchased with real money, and none of your in-game currency has any real-world cash value. Premium is a real subscription concept but isn't wired to real payment processing yet.

Picks refill on their own — 1 every 30 minutes, up to 5. You can also burn 3 cards for an instant extra Pick, or ask an admin if you're testing with friends.

Yes — every new account gets 3 free starter cards immediately, so there's something to try in Duels, the Auction House, and your Showcase before your first real pick even matures.

Yes — the Hypecall extension adds a "Hypecall it" button directly on YouTube video pages, next to Like/Share. Click it and it reads the video's title, current like count, and channel info straight off the page, then calls it for you — no copy-pasting the link into the site. You still need to be logged into your Hypecall account (the extension has its own quick login), and the usual rules still apply: one call per video, ever, and it spends a Pick like normal. Grab it from the "Add to Chrome" button on the Home page.
