The Bitcoin Podcast

Today we talk with Lawrence Richardson II from ZeroSum Markets. The ZeroSum Platform is a peer versus peer competitive platform that allows individuals to create and participate in competitions that require a measurable skill in a given subject matter. Users enter with a defined entry fee and if victorious against their peers win prizes immediately. Initially created to isolate trading skill in trading competitions the platform and technology base are extensible in order to support any desired peer versus peer competition event. The ZeroSum Platform is already built and available at www.zerosummarkets.com – ongoing development and support for third party implementations are continuing to bolster the ZFX Token.
