Edit: How can Sports help grow Bitcoin adoption beyond limits and at a very fast pace?
Don't talk just leave your audience with the question in the end of the podcast.
As you wish
You could also make an offer at the end of a podcast. Such as a side-bet or something similar.
What about making pools?
Making random wagers at the end could be fun. We do have several running bets, but I usually forget to bring them up.
And I forget that we made them. I am glad you are keeping track. Hopefully you don’t get temporary amnesia when I win.
We are involved in three that come to mind:
- Another new NBA champ this season
- All new MVPs going forward
- The Vikings will lose another division game
I do recall these. Fortunately we are both winning the third one.
How have we not won that already? The season is two-thirds over.
Ahh sorry I mean it's a suggestion not a direction for you guys. I think this question will create a great connect with the audience for this week.
I also feel that you should always end the pod with a question and ask the response in the comments.
Well, you could make betting by BTC a thing to do! I suppose facilitating gambling with sats or BTC would gather some interest for the gamblers in the house. Making side- bets with each other might not entail any state interference.
It already is
Oh, you mean that there is side-betting going on or that their is online bookies here?
They still need to develop a full lightning network sports book, but there are several websites with sports betting:
- Freebitcoin mostly has soccer, but they put up other events seemingly at random
- Nitrobetting is a pretty traditional sports betting site that uses bitcoin (not exclusively), but it doesn't allow lightning payouts.
- Predyx is a new prediction market site that uses the lightning network and has a few sports outcomes.
- The makers of Predyx are working on a LN sports book, but it isn't up and running yet.
It is a good thing I learned about gambling long ago in the dog tracks and Vegas!!
I don’t do it any more. When I was gambling, I would only take as much as I could loose, loose it, then quit. I figured out that there was only the house to gamble against and they always win.

That's a great question! Let's see if we can remember to talk about it.
