Promises - Githubissues

clesaege commented 3 years ago

Users can make promises (or not do) an action and put a deposit. If they don’t fulfill their promise, a part of their stake is burnt and another part given to a promise challenger. Promises can be made to oneself.

A food multinational corporation promises that it will stop using palm oil by 2020.
Bob promises to himself that in 2020 he will raise a guide dog puppy for a local association. He fails to provide evidence of this and a challenger notices. Part of his stake is burnt and another part given to the challenger.

A good way to keep oneself accountable. Other examples coming to mind:

Fitness challenge: walk 20 minutes/day, run 5K, complete a race
Diet challenge

@clesaege maybe see https://waybetter.com/stepbet for inspiration (integration) on this.

I intended to have this done in this (now stale) repo https://github.com/greenlucid/achiever I still think it would be valuable. It could be used to force crypto projects to stay accountable and to have skin in the game
