Co-Founder & CEO of Bitcoin Prediction Market
Bitcoinprediction.market now has a graph to visualise event forecasting. The market is bullish on a Trump win. image
The Bitcoin community has some of the most passionate haters in the world. The purity test and virtue signalling has stifled much creativity in the space. Don’t build products for Bitcoiners, build products for people who want to use Bitcoin.
Benefits of a Bitcoin-based prediction market: 1. Censorship resistance: unstoppable bets and rewards 2. Privacy: no need for an account, just a lightning wallet 3. Hard money: bets are denominated in sats, not fiat Adding nostr in the mix can enable opt-in identity and crowdsourced events.
You can bet with sats on the US election and other events on bitcoinprediction.market
I now see how ecash could actually be a great solution to enable private and anonymous prediction markets with Bitcoin + Lightning.
Call me crazy but I haven’t yet seen a single post on nostr that would get censored on twitter
Nostr apps should not try to rhyme with nostr Shit is corny Especially if the name is unreadable How do you even pronounce @Wherostr ??? I want to like these new things but being this unpronounceable is not helpful…
Many small mining pools Many independent mining pools Many PPLNS pools Many StratumV2 pools This is the way 🔮
