Okay Bet got launched on Product Hunt!
This was the debutante of Okay Bet for users to get in on the action with the contracts deployed on Base mainnet. With over 50 upvotes and over 20 comments I was excited to get some positive feedback after throwing it out there to the public. This also informed further iterations in both style features for Okay Bet.
The idea for Okay Bet started at the Base Onchain Summer Hackathon. Thirdweb sponsored the gaming track, and I decided to make a betting game based on escrow contracts in the parody style of Words with Friends.
Bets With Friends was deployed on the Base Sepolia testnet and, while janky, had the core betting functionality working great.
Unfortunately, my entry did not become a finalist, but I choose to believe it is due to Coinbase and our other lovely sponsors not wanting anything to do with appearing to sponsor gambling. I do not share those reservations, so I decided to continue with Okay Bet.
