Player to Player? e.g. chess?

Why not, just say goodbye to house edge...

What if you charged a fee? 1% for example?

I think it's possible, but really hard to reach. Satoshi Nakamoto can do it :D

I'm sure you could do something like split key generation, where a random 1 of 2 keys acceses an address. But peerbet is close, they have no edge, but there is third-party trust.

You can do it with special bitcoin txs and an oracle.

Peerbet haves an wheel of fortune too, actualy with house edge.

Yes, I was referring to the lottery system. The wheel is new since they were bought.

Yes, the lottery system is close to p2p, but only in the principle, not in the technical page...

What I'm actualy trying to say is that it's pretty easy to build something like Peerbet is, because it's only p2p simulating, but without any proof etc.

It's a lot harder to build something like provably p2p casino... (and this can't be only server or even webhost, you need to run this on c++ or something similar, perfectly understand the hashing technologies and many more...)

But with some effort, why not? I like that idea & people would love it too. I wish you good luck with this
