GoGoated Weekly Race: the honest read
The Goated Weekly Race is a true wager race (ranked by amount wagered). It runs weekly with $25,000 in the pool, 20 places (unconfirmed on our last read), and its payout depth is not something we have established from the operator’s own pages. We cannot score this one honestly. We have not read how many places this weekly race pays, so there is nothing to measure how widely its pool is spread. It sits low on our value grid (P14 of 19) because an unverified race should not outrank one whose figures we actually read, and NOT because we have found it pays badly. Treat the ranking here as "unknown", not as a verdict. Below is what is corroborated, what is not, and the catch: we do not publish invented per-place prize tables.

The catch
Re-read 2026-09-13 on the operator's own page: the $25,000 weekly pool is stated verbatim ("Giving away $25,000 every week") and is current. The per-place figures here (top 20 paid, $5,000 to 1st, top 3 about 38%) come from an earlier live read that was never dated and never transcribed into a ladder, and they could NOT be re-confirmed on 2026-09-13: the leaderboard table was empty with the countdown at zero, i.e. the race had just reset. Confidence lowered from high to medium on that basis. The older note called this "the ONLY fully-verified per-place table in our research", which was true of the reading but was never captured as data. Not in our affiliate roster, neutral listing. Goated also runs a separate DAILY race (its own nav lists Weekly Race and Daily Race); we do not yet track it.
How we score it
Value score 1.06: position P14 of 19 on the value grid (11% of the pace-setter's score). We cannot score this one honestly. We have not read how many places this weekly race pays, so there is nothing to measure how widely its pool is spread. It sits low on our value grid (P14 of 19) because an unverified race should not outrank one whose figures we actually read, and NOT because we have found it pays badly. Treat the ranking here as "unknown", not as a verdict.
The score rewards a big pool spread across many places and discounts whale structures, raffles/multiplier formats and token/rollover friction: built only from verifiable coarse signals. Full method: how we rank. Compare against every tracked race.
