Project Description

Introducing Scout the Stakes — a revolutionary decentralized mini gambling game, expertly crafted and deployed on the robust Ethereum blockchain. This state-of-the-art smart contract game offers a transparent, trustless gaming experience, allowing users to wager and win in an environment that emphasizes safety and fairness.

Key Features of Scout the Stakes:

Immutable Ownership: Securely set, the ownership of the contract lies with the creator, ensuring a stable and reliable platform where only the designated owner can perform critical administrative tasks.

Transparent Game Results: Every game action is logged and public. From the amount wagered by the last player, their chances of winning, to the outcome of each game, everything is traceable and verifiable, enhancing player confidence and trust.

Real-Time Event Notifications: With events like GameResult and DonationReceived, players and donors receive immediate confirmations of their transactions and actions, ensuring a seamless and engaging user experience.

User-Driven Participation: Anyone can participate by simply sending ETH to the contract. The enterGame function allows for straightforward gameplay, and the smart contract logic ensures that your chances of winning are fairly calculated based on your wager relative to the total contract balance.

Secure Random Number Generation: Utilizing a pseudo-random number generated through the Ethereum blockchain’s keccak256 algorithm, the game provides an adequately random outcome for the casual gambling environment, ensuring each game is both exciting and fair.

Generous Payouts: Winners receive a substantial payout, calculated as 95% of the contract's current balance, delivered directly and securely through the Ethereum network.

Open for Donations: Scout the Stakes accepts donations that enhance the prize pool, making the games more exciting and increasing the stakes for all participants. Each donation is acknowledged through blockchain events, adding to the donor's recognition.

Exclusive Withdrawal Rights: Designed with security in mind, only the contract owner can withdraw the balance, ensuring that the accumulated funds are managed responsibly and with integrity.

Scout the Stakes is not just a game; it’s a secure, decentralized platform where the thrill of gambling meets the transparency and reliability of blockchain technology. Dive into the future of online gambling where every bet is safe, every game is fair, and every transaction is recorded on the Ethereum blockchain. Join us at scout the Stakes and place your bets in the world's most trustless and transparent gambling arena!

How it's Made

This project utilizes Scaffold-ETH for the initial setup. Blockscout is used to display the transaction hashes as well as the network and the current user. We developed the smart contract using Solidity and implemented the frontend and API calls with TypeScript and React. This is a fun little game for all people!
