Show HN: Geostakes – Skill Based Location Wagering

https://www.geostakes.com/
2•stefmeister•58m ago
Hey guys,

I built Geostakes, a skill-based wagering platform where you can play 1v1 Geoguessr-style duel for money against other players.

I'm tired of seeing people waste money on luck-based games and I think that skill-based wagering platforms are the future. Many people develop actual skills playing video games and why not have the opportunity to profit from it.

The platform supports FIAT deposits and FIAT & Crypto withdrawals, and the matchmaking system is async. You play a 5 round game and then another player gets the same seed as you and the winner takes the pot.

Right now I'm restricting to US players and in the states where skill-based real-money gaming is authorized.

Let me know if you have any questions or feedback!
