24 alternatives to Ethercup: Place Ether on your fav teams of the FIFA Worldcup 2018

Hi guys, I am building Ethercup and I wanted to show you how it works: https://ethercup.github.io/ . On the website is a demo bet live right now on the Kovan test network. This bet opens today and will close in a few days. A How-to is provided on the website, but you can check out the code directly on GitHub: https://github.com/ethercup/ethercup.github.io There's no bug-bounty program, but I'm willing to share profits (if it'll yield any) in case you can break it and point me to it. Looking forward to hearing your feedback :) Also, feel free to ask…

    I wanted to see how difficult it would be to build a web app using a sub-$300 android smartphone. Decided to build a fun predictions website where you could bet virtual (not real) money on predictions made by others, and also make predictions of your own. Building it turned out to be considerably easier and more fun than I anticipated. Primary tools used were: # QuickEdit as the mobile code editor (Note: the free version of the QuickEdit app is riddled with ads, it shows an advert each time you close a tab, but it unfortunately had the best UI of the 3 or so Android code editors I tested.…

    I created a bot which analyses Euro 2024 betting odds and performs some basic analysis based on the recent form of each team and provides advice on which odds are under/over-priced by email to all subscribers. The intelligence of the bot is admittedly rather basic but this simple app shows how easy it is to reliably scrape and parse structured data with AI and perform insightful analysis. The initial version of the bot, shown in the notebook took about 15 minutes to build. Disclosure: this bot is built on our new graph based #nocode platform NodeScript.dev, which we've recently brought…

    I know everyone is a bit burned out on blockchain and cryptocurrency related stuff around these parts, but I've been working on as a side project for the last few months and thought you guys might be interested: https://cryptoempire.io/ It's still a bit buggy and incomplete (the mobile ux needs a lot of work, the leaderboard isn't functional yet, etc.), but I've reached a point where I'm not totally ashamed of sharing it :) Any feedback would be most welcome!

    Hey HN! I've been working on this idea off and on for a few weeks now and I figured it was time to show it to folks before continuing to build it out any further (hence the terrible UI). The idea is this: A smart contract that allows players to win the tokens in the contract in proportion to the number of tokens they've depositing into the smart contract. For example, if you and another player enter a round with 1 token each, you both have a 50/50 shot of winning the other's token. Here's the catch. Anyone can end the round at any moment, even people who haven't deposited any tokens.…

    Hi HN, I'm the creator of epress. After a lot of work, I'm excited (and a bit nervous) to finally share it with you. For years, I've been feeling like a digital tenant on the platforms I use every day. My content, my social graph, my online identity—they were all stored on someone else's servers, subject to their rules, algorithms, and business models. I could be de-platformed, my data could be sold, or an API I relied on could suddenly be put behind a paywall. I looked into existing decentralized alternatives. While many are great projects, I found they often shifted the trust from a big…

    I am building a simple donation platform where creators can accept tips in crypto — kind of like “Buy Me a Coffee,” but Web3-native. No signups required for supporters. Just share your donation page and anyone can send MATIC, ETH, or any ERC-20 token directly to your wallet. It’s gas-efficient and built on Polygon. Each creator gets a customizable page with a short URL and optional message board. Everything is non-custodial — you own your keys and your funds.

    Hi guys, It is no secret that I'm pretty tired of the political infighting around Bitcoin. The environment got so toxic that I stopped most of my Bitcoin-centric development to focus on other projects. I'm pretty sure there are many developers who have felt the same way, and the result has been an explosion in alternative coins and technologies as developer resources have gone elsewhere. So, I started a simple experiment. What if we got rid of developers entirely, and just replicated and adapted the deflationary structure of Bitcoin on Ethereum. We could model the entire process as an…
