Show HN: A prediction market where you can bet against my goals

2 comments

This is great. Local, "among-friends" prediction markets are a cool niche to explore - if the experience can be gamified properly this can be a great viral app.

Hmm I get it's a thrill for the author to get exposure/internetfame, but what's in it for the bettors? Looks to me that if bets reach enough of a one-sided weight, it's super easy for OP to just "forget" to study for their test

Yeah I think that's my goal here. Traditional payment platforms like Stripe charge a ridiculous fee that makes small prediction markets unviable -- but with Crypto payments small markets can actually become a thing

I built a prediction market where you can bet against me achieving my goals.

The house doesn't always win... sometimes I just forget to study for my exams.

Powered by USDC on Base with Parimutuel Pools. Apparently Stripe doesn't like gambling.

can you link Base with Parimutuel Pools?

Not sure what exactly you mean here but I enforced an account/wallet mode instead of just pools with payments just because it's easier for tracking... could consider complete anonymity with just address and pools but that's for the future.
