I invite you to test your sports predictions against mine through $BRACKY tokens (0x06f71fb90F84b35302d132322A3C90E4477333b0)

Your participation is appreciated

I'd be willing to bet that @tldr, @passafiume.eth and @maxp.eth have reviewed some sort of data on this given my understanding of future plans for @bracky to launch ad-hoc wagers among friends on basically anything

Looks like prevalence of apps has cut into peer-to-peer appetite.

There was a 2022-23 pew study that found solo-betting apps have cut into the "social betting" habits of past:

- people with online sportsbook account is up to 20+% (from ~10%)
- people who bet with family / friends down to 15% (from ~35%)
- people who did social pools down to 35% (from ~50%)

This aligns with what I see anecdotally, both IRL and with bracket

I think there are new formats of social betting that will emerge though (bracket has already found a couple that work)

ERHMAGHERD, I scrolled the replies to see if you were already here with the deets but didn't see yours. Interesting data.
