20 XCP bounty to build the ethereum smart contract logic for a powerball lottery on the blockchain using XCP

if someone can write the logic on the lottory using whatever is compatible with what Adam has ported to mimic the powerball lottery.

• include a section for the instantiator of the contract (lottery) to take a fee
  it should be able to handle creating multiple "tickets"
  it should distribute the winning based on how many numbers people get X of Y numbers (similar to how state lottos work)
  it should allow people to trade tickets
  it should allow users to redeem tickets
  it should set limits for when tickets can be redeemed
  if no one gets all the numbers the contract should roll over for another time period
  the initiator should be able to choose how many number fields, time block period, and his pay out, and possibly the distribution logic (if you want to get fancy).
  it should be open source on github
  one of the XCP dev's need to look at it and say that the code is good (or a known, respected Ethereum dev)

if you like this idea feel free to commit to matching my bounty amount or committing to give some XCP as well (or whatever crypto you want to use)

 

here is a sample lotto script

I know this is not a very detailed spec so please ask questions.

Am I the only one who can't access either Multisig or Free Asset Issuance functionality in Counterwallet on mainnet right now? I emptied my browser cache, tried a new browser and tried the beta counterwallet link.

might also want to do a weekly short post "for beginners" in "tool tips" style, etc.  that we can share out and pique people's interest  -  a lot of new people won't get all this other stuff


maybe the main blog is not the right venue for it, etc.  but there needs to be drip engagement for people with lower attention spans.

Hey guys,

Some friends and I made this site.

http://donatexcp.com/

When XCP is donated we "timelock" the funds until May 15, 2015 (which was a date chosen fairly arbitrarily). We wanted to donate and show support for Counterparty, however, we did not want to cash out any of our XCP before it goes up a bit more.

I'll be adding the logos of a few companies built on Counterparty who made donations towards the initial wallet balance. If anyone out there, person or company, would like to make a public donation and have their logo displayed on the site, just let me know. To donate privately, simply send funds to the address displayed on the site.

As a side note I'd also like to announce that Bet XCP has been sold. All of the funds from the sale were donated to Donate XCP. The new owner of Bet XCP will likely announce himself shortly.

Sweet Jesus!! We are In the Game!!

Here's a public service announcement that I think will interest many of you and definitely affect us.

I am subscribed on youtube to many bitcoin related pages and if you go to "Bitcoin Magazine"

You will see that at 7pm pacific standard time (My california time), SWARM is having the worlds first decentralized demo day at Silicon Valley and live coverage will be at the channel linked above.

So I was like hmm what is this demo day, so I went to SWARMS website - https://www.swarm.co/

Summary is they have chosen what they believe to be the 5 most disruptive crypto projects and will be allowing them to demonstrate tonight, they will also be crowdselling their project using swam and as many of you already know, SWARM is built on Counterparty!

So this is going to be an epic event tonight that will effect us all
