RE: [SteemCoinflip] - The first coinflip game on Steemit! (PLAY FOR FREE)
I just realized something...
When someone bet for a coinflip, you will have to wait until another person wants to play, the only issue is that, when you play, other people can see your bet before they make one, which make cheating possible... How do we eliminate this issue??
best regards
Thanks a lot for the feedback. I'm not too sure what you mean with that. All player will deposit the same amount. (Currently 0.01 SBD) There is no way to cheat the system, as the coin is flipped randomly by our system. No one knows what the outcome will be until the game is closed, and the transaction is sent. Feel free to ask if you have more questions.
Sorry, I did not think my respons to you coinflip game trough... of course you can not cheat, becuase you need two people with two different bets (Heads/Tails) in order to flip and announce a winner.
Still a great game, what is the technology behind this game?
No problem! - Actually a memo with "Heads/Tails" is not required. The bot will pick one of them for you automatically. The program is constantly checking for new transfers. Currently if the amount is 0.01 SBD the bot will accept, and add you into the game. If not, the bot will return the funds. When the game is full the bot will "flip" a coin (generated by a random number) and will then send the winnings to the winner, that way the game can't be manipulated by anyone. In the future the source code will be publicly available for everyone.
Aah thats sounds like a great well though trough idea. Good to hear that issues are being eliminated. I think this is a great Idea and I want to be supporting this. :)
