I didn't try freebitcoin because the site looks like a scam, lol
Also, I don't like e-mail auth. But maybe I'll just use addy.io. I need UI/UX inspiration - but not sure if I can get that from that site.
We need to keep the pressure on @ekzyis, to get his predictions market site up and running. It's ridiculous that we have to use the site linked above. Not to mention, it only offers about half of the NFL games each week and nothing for the other major American sports.
TODO for today: Setup a signet LND node for production usage. So far, I have only been running it locally during development. Also, need to find a way how people can pay their own signet invoices.
Previously, I had the idea to run a bot so you can just post your invoice in a reply to a post and the bot will autopay any signet invoice from my node.
Maybe I'll do that, but then the testing will be SN exclusive, lol. But maybe that's not a bad thing / a good thing :)
Also, then I can finally explain to @Natalia how to create such a bot, haha
There are a lot of examples of things to be avoided on that site.
The interesting thing about it is the actual wagering system. It's a betting pool, so the odds are only approximate until the pool closes. That allows the house to guarantee a profit on each bet, by taking a cut from the pool prior to payout. It also gets around needing to set odds.
You don't have either of those problems, either, but it's an interesting model.
