MemeBet

MemeBet is a decentralized application (DApp) built on the Cartesi platform, enabling users to create and participate in meme-based betting games. With MemeBet, you can create betting pools around popular memes, place bets using cryptocurrencies, and earn rewards based on the outcome of the bets.

Features

• Create Meme Betting Games: DAO members can create new betting games by submitting a game and defining the betting options (e.g., "Doge" vs "Pepe", Corinthians Vs Palmeiras; Real Madrid vs Barcelona; etc.).

• Place Bets: Participants can place bets on their preferred option using various cryptocurrencies, such as Ether (ETH) or ERC-20 tokens.

• Decentralized Governance: MemeBet is governed by a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), ensuring fair and transparent decision-making processes.

• Validator Functions: Custom validator functions can be created and deployed to determine the winning meme option based on predefined criteria.

• Secure Payouts: Winning bets are automatically paid out to the respective participants, leveraging the security and transparency of the Cartesi blockchain.

• Install the required dependencies by running the yarn command in the dApp folder:

cd dapp
yarn

• Running with Cartesi CLI (inside the dapp folder):

cartesi build

And then

cartesi run

If everything is correctly installed, you shall have the application running in the terminal like this:

prompt-1     | Anvil running at http://localhost:8545
prompt-1     | GraphQL running at http://localhost:8080/graphql
