⚽ Sportsbook 🏗️

Betting dapp using ChakraUI

How can I contribute to this build?

Dapp flow is:

  1. An address challenges another address and specifies a referee address and optionally a bet amount
  2. Challenged address accepts the challenge and bets the same amount as the proposer address
  3. Referee sets the game as started and challenge can't be canceled no more (suposedly, this coincides with a real life sports match)
  4. Referee sets the score and prize gets distributed accordingly (and then all to winner, or split if tie)
  5. (still not implemented) After results are in, a SVG NFT with the results of the match in the image can be claimed by all parts involved
