Hi everybody!
I have an idea for a new type of Bitcoin lottery.
Instead of a lottery where the winner is chosen randomly, I would like to see a lottery where the player can build some strategy to try to win the pot.
The lottery can be called "prediction lottery", let's say there is a period of time, for example, 1 week, after that period 1 player will win the jackpot. Everybody can buy a ticket for a fixed price, for example, 0.001 BTC, instead of choosing some random numbers like in most lotteries, the player makes a prediction of how much the pot is going to be at the end of the period of time. The prediction that is most close to the jackpot value, wins the lottery. Because it is more difficult to predict the pot at the beginning of the round than at the last minute, we can introduce a more expensive price of the ticket for last-minute players.
What do you think? Would you like to play a lottery such as this? What improvements or variations do you suggest?
It isn't really a lottery it is more likely a prediction game but this is the first one that would depend on the pot money,
The only known prediction games are crypto price like BTC.
It is a good one but the tickets shouldn't have a number so the gamblers shouldn't have any idea on how many tickets has been sold.
I think the site should only put the informations of how many gamblers have bought a ticket but not the info about how many tickets has been sold,
For example a gambler could buy 10 or more ticket to have a high chance of winning but the site would only register it as one gambler.
