Ok, So we need something daring and bold to take us to the Moon. This might just be it.... Let's call it BitDare or you can think of any other name, that sounds funky enough to make this work. The concept works like this : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3531824/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 { The Movie Nerve } https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2xdxlO3M4YPlot : A high school senior finds herself immersed in an online game of truth or dare, where her every move starts to become manipulated by an anonymous community of "watchers." This would be our Bitcoin spin on this : People suggest a Dare they want to see accomplished within a specific time period. They have to fund this request, if they want to see someone taking on this Dare. { The bitcoin for this Dare are being held by a Escrow } We call these people the Funders. Then we have the Watchers... They pay a little fee to watch the Dare. {This could be streamed live via https://streamium.io/ or http://onperiscope.com/ or pre-recorded and uploaded to a Pay-per-View Bitcoin service } These fees goes towards hosting fees and paying the Escrow services. All Dares must be within the laws of your country { It should be legal } and not be dangerous. { No serious injuries or Death please } The reward can be paid out, once the Funders are satisfied that the requirements for the dare was met. So let's get cracking and take this thing to the Moon. * Any examples of dares you would want to see.... ? Let's discuss ...

Lol, This idea was from a movie titled "nerve"? if so then this is something illegal in my opinion. Guys you should have to be careful about it,, I would like to state some scenario on the movie , at first dares were just for fun but in the long run it isn't.

Ok, looks like you missed a part of the post there....let me highlight it for you. --> " All Dares must be within the laws of your country { It
should be legal } and not be dangerous. { No serious injuries or Death please } " ...Get it? The sites hosting these Dares, have their own rules {ToS} so you cannot post something illegal... You can even use Youtube. Dares will not be accepted, if it is dangerous or if it is against the laws of the country hosting the material. Guys and Girls think about it, this could be big, if it goes viral.

The point that i am trying to say is that can you assure to us users,watchers that everything would be completely legal. Below 18 are allowed to watch the ppv or not?

This can be interesting, a game like this would probably be pleasing to watch or play if as stated the dares are totally legal and not dangerous at all. I personally don't have any ideas if which kind of dares i would like to see or do. Lets see what others will say about this.

I remember that there was similar (but probably low budget) attempt at this. If the idea gets realised on a big scale, with a lot of investment and promotion, this would be something that would spark people's attention both to the game and bitcoin.
Sadly, most investors and operators are more interested in opening yet another same dull dice site than to try something really interesting like this..

You do not need a specialized site for this. It can be started by any user on a forum with some money and a good dare, but it would be better if you have a dedicated site, with a easy accessible URL. for example www.BitcoinDareGame.com ...Let's say you want to see someone taking a shit, while riding a skateboard. {Sick but funny} Then you just create a post under a thread called, Bitcoin Dares and you give the details for your dare and you show the funds in escrow for that dare. {If other people also want to see that, they will have to add to the funds in the Escrow} The first person to post a URL as proof that they completed the challenge or the dare, gets the money} A dedicated site with trusted Escrow services, will just make things much easier...

This should be an entertaiment live i think, for example makes it like twitch, people have their own channel. Then the system payment like your own. It's need hard work to promote. maybe the content for entertain is need to be more variant which it's not people do a dare, maybe something similiar but different. Well this idea is interesting, since i've watch the movie then someone have crazy idea too

Any plans to actually try this out? How about starting a dare? Care to fund one? lol. Would be fun to watch. Should start out fairly easy but interesting/funny. its been done before.. the main result turns into "shoe on head"
Where exactly? Links please. I remember that there was similar (but probably low budget) attempt at this. If the idea gets realised on a big scale, with a lot of investment and promotion, this would be something that would spark people's attention both to the game and bitcoin.

Exactly. It's always the same old dice site. Can't find anything new or even the least bit interesting.

I understand your frustration but I will not totally blame investors with this, since it’s the people voting with their money the ones that are stating very loudly that they seem to want more of the same.

Thanks for the link.
Well, I read the whole thread and yeah, it didn't pan out, but it's not quite what I had in mind. That was disappointing. I was thinking maybe videos/live videos and a not so generic dare like a shoe on the head. But huh, showing ones face is actually daring. lol. On the hand, I could just imagine the price of bitcoin at that time. throwing away several .5 BTC for a shoe on the head? wow. And cleaning up some street gutter for 25 BTC? That's like $17,000 today.

You know it seems like a potential for all kinds of lawsuit issues as the people may not know they are breaking a law at the time.
What I find hilarious is how many people sign up for these team based scavenger hunts and fly around town in yellow,blue and red bibs. It seems to be a team building exercise for companies and a way to bond fellow workers but I think bitcoin could come into play. Hiding bitcoin QR codes through out town and the winners would obviously have the most codes. Only issues would be weather damage and theft,you figure those out and you could have games that could reset over and over with multiple stations. Like a live version of capture the flag.

You are paying someone to do something, you want to see. There is NO gambling involved with this. The one party offer their services and the other party pay them for that service. Let's say you had a shitty day, and you want to see something done that would make you laugh... then you go to this site and you submit a dare or a challenge. To make sure you honour your promise to pay, the payment is held by a Escrow... someone takes up this challenge and they do it... then the Escrow pay that person. There are so many role players that would benefit from this : ~ Escrow services ~ Person doing the dare/challenge ~ Hosting site { pay-per-view or streaming site } ~ Income generated from Youtube views Damn, this can work... I can already see the crazy stuff people would be doing and how many people would adopt Bitcoin, just to take part in this.
