Show HN: Degen Raffle – A raffle built on Ethereum 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. The contract is currently deployed to Rinkeby and I currently hold all of the Degen Raffle Tokens (DRT) needed to enter the raffle. If you're interested in playing, let me know and I'll send you a few million. https://ift.tt/3zpITx9 August 28, 2021 at 11:41PM

The newsletter was meant to help unite ...
