I have another idea in the works for whenever @ekzyis gets his site up and running

is it not already up and running?

but it will be a more difficult and expensive data exercise.

Real sats? I may have missed an announcement.

This will cost me a bit to access the data I need, so I'm not going to start until there are real earnings to be had.

No, not real sats but I think you shouldn't wait for the release with real sats since I can not tell you when this is going to happen if ever :)

I mean, I would love to release it with real sats but this makes this project really serious really fast since it's custodial (+ legal stuff). So first, I am going to flesh it out and just fleshing it out might take me 6+ months.

But I am really glad that @Alby asked me to do a showcase for them tomorrow, so I guess they also see that there is some potential in prediction markets on lightning, lol :)

Ahh, I see. Then it makes sense :)

So it's not a feature request you're saying?

Are you basically announcing your willingness to participate in insider trading? lol :)

I've been thinking about an odds model for a while now, but the data I would need costs about $16 a month from basketball-reference. My plan was to get the model programmed, then buy the data and use it at Fan Duel or some other online sports betting site. However, I'd rather wait for your project and do everything in Bitcoin.
