NashHash

Inspiration

Cryptoeconomic mechanism design, which is largely informed by game theory.

What it does

Users can choose from a variety of games. Users stake ETH in order to participate in each game. The winner takes the entire prize pool (minus a fixed percentage that goes to the platform). Game mechanics are open sourced — provably fair No counter-party risk regarding user funds

How we built it

With love and Azure.

Challenges we ran into

Front-running games. Collusion in games. Design. Solidity's Hashing function not identical to Web3's hashing function. Solidity does not allow for conversion from string to integers — required for commit-reveal

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Launching our first game and website Making progress in the field of game-theory studies

What we learned

Solidity needs work.

What's next for NashHash
