We use SportsDataIO for our Oracle’s data source and, to maintain proper decentralization, a keeper contract will close all of the pools 24 hours after the tournament has ended. Each pool is a smart contract, which uses Chainlink price feeds to provide the up-to-date price in $ETH, $MATIC, or $AVAX. The UI allows users to build and save brackets, with an easy-to-use interface. Smart Picks is a dApp that lets users create and enter into NCAA March Madness betting pools. Now that Smart Picks is built, we want to continue to broaden its use cases and bring it to market in time for the 2022 March Madness Tournament. We knew this would be an amazing, fun thing to create, with plenty of room for us to learn and grow as engineers. When the idea for Smart Picks came up, we knew immediately that we wanted to do it. We see an opportunity to contribute to this space and believe that a substantial part of this market would move to trustless blockchain solutions. Per Visual Capitalist's research, we know that online sports betting is a burgeoning industry. Our goal was to create something that we could see ourselves using, and increase the adoption rate of blockchain and cryptocurrencies. Our team strongly feels that decentralized betting platforms are the next logical step for DeFi.
