ByteBet

Peer-to-peer, community-driven betting platform on Ethereum

About ByteBet
ByteBet is a peer-to-peer, community-driven betting platform based on Ethereum that allows players from anywhere in the world to create customized bets and play against each other.

Problem
In the original gambling model, players bet against the house where a high house edge is applied on every single bet the players make. No matter if the player wins or loses, the house edge is always applied, making it much harder not to lose money in the long run. The middleman's only intention is to make sure players play as many times as possible and lose their funds in the long-term, providing a steady income for the gambling site owners..

Benefits

• Low betting fees: by using blockchain technology fees can be decreased, leaving more money for the players.
• Reward system: 50% of the fees are shared between active community members and BBET token holders.
• Peer-to-peer: players bet against each other, not against the house.
• Customizable bets: players can create their own fully-customized bets and publish them on the platform.

How it works

Fee model
Betting fees are kept low and maximum 1.5% fee levied on the winner’s prize. 50% of
this fee is shared with the community members.

About ByteBet token (it’s not just for gamblers!)
A ByteBet token (BBET) is used as a core element on ByteBet’s decentralized platform. A BBET token is a standard ERC-20 token created on the Ethereum network. This means all the infrastructure is already provided to store and transfer BBET tokens. Creating and joining games is only possible by using BBET tokens. Winners receive their prize in BBET tokens and also rewards are paid in BBET tokens.

Members who take part in verifying events receive a portion from the fees. Holding ByteBet tokens also entitles players to receive a share from the fees depending on their stake.

This sounds good, but I don't understand how your are planning to get the result of the bet? Are you using oracle with some sort of a machine learning AI to get the result from different sources? Or just somebody will sit in front of their computer and google the question for it?

[tamastorok]

We let the community decide on the results, any members can vote on what really happened. We are using game theory techniques to filter out the "lies". By ‘punishing’ the ones who voted on the false result and rewarding the others. This way we can minimalize the number of false results. 

Currently, we’re working on the technical details. Stay tuned for our coming whitepaper.

Hi guys,

Looks like a good platform that I've never heard of before. Gambling in a way that users bet against each other is different from the current betting websites I know of and would it would be nice to experience this new way of gambling. I just have to see where it is going with respect to the result of each bet and whether it will be possible to place so many bets at one time, say for example a weekend where more people use gambling sites to bet on sport events, if it is still possible to check whether all bets are valid and if the community is acting in a fair way to provide 100% true outcomes.

The cool things about ByteBet is that they will pay all coinholders, I would see this as a dividend for people that hold the coin in their wallet. In the white paper it stated that 0.25% of the fees paid on creating a bet will be redistributed to people that own the coin in the portfolio. By holding the coin you will receive ByteBet coins if someone is using them on the ByteBet platform. Moreover the fees paid, the people that help verify the created bet will also be rewarded with 0.5% of the total bet placed which is an argument that the community will act in a fair way in order to receive some ByteBet coins!

Besides, all betting sites I know of are making huge profits today and their revenues are still increasing. You may have heard that there are already a few betting websites that make use of cryptocurrency right now, I would say that this one is quite different and is not focusing on the huge profits but more on its users itself, let's say its community. It is the same as the other altcoins in the market but adding this unique feature which might turn out to be a very interesting way of gambling between people. However there is no real evidence that this way of gambling works, I would still invest some money into this project to see whether it works and to see if this can become a game changing gambling platform.

I do see potential in the idea of this gambling site and am looking forward to see where things are going, only point that I think will be hard to implement is all the technology to get everything exactly right the way it is supposed to without any errors. These errors can occur because it is a new concept which has not yet been tested, so I am only a bit scared that people might gain an advantage by something where ByteBet is not thinking about right now. However, we can only know whether there is any error when the platform is running.

The team is also looking a bit small to me, they say that they are making use of freelancers to get things done. I would say that ByteBet should increase its team in order to make the concept more trustworthy. However, I think that a team of 2 + freelancers has a possibility to lead to succes, other investors might want to see a bigger team and maybe advisors before putting some money into a project like this!

Let me know if I am missing anything on this forum please and Good Luck to this project!

Thank you for the supportive comment!  We're working day and night to make this project a reality.

We're determined to create a platform that gives betting back to people, where conditions are much fairer compared to the old gambling model. It means that our profit will be lower, but still have to make sure that ByteBet will be profitable.

Yeah, errors can (and will) occur when the platform is launched so this is why we will let only just a small amount of people in the platform to test the very first version. As the system becomes more stable, we will open it up for more people.

We're a small team, so as you said it's crucial to get more team members on board. Our intention is to kickstart the project with a small team and then focus our efforts to find talented people who can help us build ByteBet.

Betting is not a good process for society. I think Its a bad project.

The old betting model has an unfair advantage against the players. They want to make sure that they lose their money in the long-term, that's the profit the gambling site earns. We're creating a fair environment where this middleman is eliminated (no house edge and unfair conditions). Since players bet against each other the money stays with the community, not with the gambling site owner. That's a huge difference.

[tamastorok]

I am very interested in the project but I still have a lot of questions to ask about this project. I am sure the project will succeed because it is highly appreciated on all media

Great

Does each vote have a different value or even users without money can vote?

In order to avoid the tsunami of fake profiles voting for false results, players (voters) are required to have a minimum amount of BBET tokens stored on the platform.

We haven't decided yet if we should give different weight to the voters. If we decide to do so the only possible way to differentiate voters is based on their voting history (reliability) NOT the number of tokens they own.
