There are a variety of cam girl sites that take bitcoin, how is this not already covered?



It is totally different because the cam girls are not dared to do "funny" things or scary stuff. These dares do not have to be linked to nudity or

erotic behaviour, but simply "fun" things that most people would enjoy watching. The cam girls are mostly used to satisfy some "sexual"

fantasy. Hope you can spot the difference now.  Wink

Lol, This idea was from a movie titled "nerve"? if so then this is something illegal in my opinion. Guys you should have to be careful about it,, I would like to state some scenario on the movie , at first dares were just for fun but in the long run it isn't.

Ok, looks like you missed a part of the post there....let me highlight it for you. --> " All Dares must be within the laws of your country { It

should be legal } and not be dangerous. { No serious injuries or Death please }
" ...Get it?

The sites hosting these Dares, have their own rules {ToS} so you cannot post something illegal... You can even use Youtube.  Wink

Dares will not be accepted, if it is dangerous or if it is against the laws of the country hosting the material. Guys and Girls think about it, this

could be big, if it goes viral.  Grin

I find this idea really interesting.I would love to watch the dares but isn't it kind of betting?How is it different like we put bet on a game of soccer etc?

No, It's not gambling.... You are paying someone to do something, you want to see. There is NO gambling involved with this. The one party

offer their services and the other party pay them for that service. Let's say you had a shitty day, and you want to see something done that

would make you laugh... then you go to this site and you submit a dare or a challenge. To make sure you honour your promise to pay, the

payment is held by a Escrow... someone takes up this challenge and they do it... then the Escrow pay that person.  Wink

There are so many role players that would benefit from this :

~ Escrow services
~ Person doing the dare/challenge
~ Hosting site { pay-per-view or streaming site }
~ Income generated from Youtube views

Damn, this can work... I can already see the crazy stuff people would be doing and how many people would adopt Bitcoin, just to take part in

this.



I don’t know why but this reminds me a little bit of fiverr, but instead of people posting what are they willing to do for 5 dollars, people will post what they want to see for X amount of bitcoin.

https://www.fiverr.com is strictly business orientated.... They will not tolerate pranks & dares like we know it. Some of these dares might be

a little bit X-rated too, if you know what I mean. You have to be open for nudity and weird stuff, because people have wild imaginations or

fantasies.  These people will challenge people to do what they want to see... The X-rated stuff will be marked as NSFW or Adult material and

that area will be restricted. The site or dares needs to be like Bitcoin.... limitless, borderless and disruptive and provocative.  Wink .... People will

not pay for ordinary content... they want stuff that are daring and controversial.  Roll Eyes  Obviously everything will be legal.. because it will get

moderated.

I watch Twitch.tv a lot, recently I notices increasing number of live streams where streamer is in public place (restaurant, bar, mall etc.)
People watching the stream are giving instructions what they want streamer to do next (buy bigmac and fried and talk to that girl who is sitting at the next table, for example).
Form what I notices these type of show is becoming extremely popular and donation are flowing constantly. Incorporating bitcoin in something like this is actually not bad idea.

Come to think of it.. Twitch.tv is actually ideal for this because you will reach a much bigger viewership than the other Bitcoin steaming

options. It would be great if these videos could be streamed live, but I think a lot less people will be able to view it live, with their

bandwidth limitations. The Funders might also not be online at the time... so it would be better if it was placed on platforms like Youtube,

with a link to the sites where the dares are posted. It would give some more exposure to the BitDare site too.  Wink

I have noticed this too with Twitch.tv and I think they also used Bitcoin before with eSport streaming of live tournaments. There was a discussion on this https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/202m70/twitchtv_should_consider_bitcoin/ but I think the regulation in the USA is slowing it down.

Someone in another country, other than the USA should launch this to speed things up. I also watch http://onperiscope.com/ but do not know if they are US based? We need a Bitcoin friendly country to run with this as soon as possible. ^smile^

Not sure if you guys are familiar with the movie "13 - Game of Death." It's basically the same thing. He gets text messages of what to do and there's a bounty in every challenge that he accomplish. In the end, he found out that he's being watched by people around the world. I loved that movie, you should check it out. There's another good revelation in the end.

Nevertheless, this is still very interesting. I can imagine people going to crazy places just for a dare (e.g. abandoned places, obscure places like the woods, etc). Those would surely be thrilling. I personally would enjoy watching more videos like that. I just hope that those crazy 'viners' wouldn't invade this project. I also hope that the tasks in this game will be moderated. You don't want to be seeing boring tasks like "Buy me a pizza and deliver it to my address." etc.

maybe moderation can be done easily.
by making the dares cheap(pennies per payer). but allowing many people to crowd fund it to make the total a worthy bounty. thus if many dont like the dare it doesnt get much funding, thus no one bothers doing it. and after X days/weeks the pennies get refunded.

also it helps make people not need to self fund a large pot of funds, while also increasing the crowds (popularity) by again not asking much from 'the watchers'
I think there should be a 'voting' system and the points shouldn't depend solely on the funds that it receives. Using the funds as a voting system will be not that good sometimes. For example somebody creates a task that nobody else want but he has enough money to fund it, then his task will be accepted anyway. But you can also set a maximum amount of funds you can put in every task to solve that problem.

On a different thought (if that makes sense), how does games like this one gets funding and all that necessary stuff? I know that ICO does that by promoting and all, but I've never seen a game.

but having random voters who have no desire, no input into a boring dare shouldnt have a majority say. otherwise the majority of danger seekers will just vote everything as too boring to veto it and can escalate into only the thrill seeking dares. thus limit the choice and become a biased set of dares.
it either becomes pure boring dares of just shoe on head by those wanting 'christian safe' dares. or pure porn or pure stunt fails.. depending on people who cant even be arsed to pay to have a say.
eg "show boobs for BTC" ends up turning into a porn site if the majority of voters are single guys. who as you say are not gonna pay.

or become empty because everyone with different desires veto's each others dare they dont like.

i think having a maximum per payer and then crowdfunding it allows those who want it to vote for it with their small amounts. thus everyone wins.

I was thinking that the Funders of the dare, should be the only people having any influence in the payment of the dare. They could have some

voting system amongst themselves, if they cannot reach consensus on the outcome. You have to remember, some of these dares would be

individually funded... so nobody else should have inputs into the payment of the dare, apart from the person or persons paying for it.  Wink

This is a bloody good idea, because the previous attempt < Shoe on the Head > was poorly funded and nobody knew about Bitcoin at the time. I already have a few ideas in mind with this, like someone farting in

a plastic bag and setting it on fire. < I have seen this being done through someones pants and it was hilarious > I can just imagine what will happen once people start paying for someone else to pull pranks on their

friends. People farting in lifts, just cracks me up, so I would definitely like to dare someone to do that. The Youtube videos are a bit fake. ^smile^ Just one question before I go, who decide if the dare or the prank

was done correctly? Votes or the person who is paying?

id say the person paying gets the majority vote. but others work as arbitrators to ensure the payer doesnt back down at the last minute with a lame excuse to not pay.

Here is my other opinion about this. As i've read replies aboved they havecstated that itvwas been done before and fails. The thing here was people in this community is trying to protect their identity which we all know the primary concern here.

That's an ok idea, however I believe that you're basing this basically entirely off of a movie that came out recently, Nerve, and personally I think this would quickly lead into a bunch of illegal activities being performed for entertainment of other people. Probably a bad idea in reality.

The idea might be something to go off of, but not in this way.

Thanks for the link.  Cheesy


Well, I read the whole thread and yeah, it didn't pan out, but it's not quite what I had in mind. That was disappointing.
I was thinking maybe videos/live videos and a not so generic dare like a shoe on the head. But huh, showing ones face is actually daring. lol.  Tongue  

On the hand, I could just imagine the price of bitcoin at that time. throwing away several .5 BTC for a shoe on the head? wow.
And cleaning up some street gutter for 25 BTC? That's like $17,000 today.   Shocked Shocked Shocked

Well, that's just the way Bitcoin is.... One day it's valued at $700 per bitcoin and in a few years it would be valued at $10 000 per bitcoin, but

it's possible value in the future, is not a reason why you should not be using it today. The opposite is also true.... you might pay 1 bitcoin for

something today, when the value is $700 and in the next week it might drop to $400.... Then you would applaud the bargain you paid for

that product or service.  Wink
