We are back with our latest weekly update! We have been making a lot of progress on our Augur implementation, which will lead to prediction markets and tournaments directly on our platform. This past week saw us implement code refactoring, improve our infrastructure, increase performance speeds, and enhance our global search functionality.



Going forward, our primary focus is on releasing prediction markets, built on top of Augur. We aim to deliver curated markets in sports, esports, and politics, with the goal of providing markets that will attract liquidity and increase user adoption. Also, as a developer-friendly company, we will make sure to offer tools and APIs to allow for more efficient interactions within our markets.



This Augur implementation will also allow us to release tournaments, one of the features we are most excited for. Tournaments will be run using our curated markets and must be accessed via XBP — users must stake XBP to enter a tournament, and they can earn ETH and other rewards depending on their performance — with the most accurate predictors earning the highest rewards.

Congratulations to PetroPicks for leading our all-time leaderboard! Competition is pretty tightly bunched beyond the top two spots, so we will be watching to see if someone new can break into the top three. Email experts@blitzpredict.io to join our expert community and battle for the top spot!

Also, our latest podcast is up! CP and I talk to Igor Locks — an old school handicapper who has been betting for over 40 years. We always try and keep our podcasts around 30 minutes, so they are relatively quick listens. Check it out on Apple, Google Play, Spotify, and Podbean.

Although the crypto space is going through some challenges, we are very optimistic about the longterm future of what we’re building at BlitzPredict, and of the space as a whole. We are committed to following our roadmap and fulfilling the vision we outlined in our white paper. We are excited to launch our prediction markets and tournaments and we will continue to post weekly updates along with frequent updates to the platform.

That will wrap up this week’s update, make sure to follow us on Twitter, Telegram, Facebook, Reddit, and Discord for the latest information to the project. Thanks for your support!
