Description

Rivaly is social prediction for sport. Create a prediction on a match, others back it or take the other side, you watch it together, and the winners are paid automatically — you play people, never a bookie.

Could you build this?

No Operating a peer-to-peer prediction market involving real money payouts requires strict gambling/financial licensing, regulatory compliance, KYC/AML, and escrow/settlement infrastructure.

What it would actually take: Requires either regulated sportsbook/gambling licenses with geolocation and KYC/AML verification or a decentralized smart-contract layer (like Polymarket) on EVM/Solana. On the backend, it needs an order-matching or peer-matching engine, automated sports data oracle feeds (e.g., Sportradar, Chainlink) for settlement, and secure payment processing/custody.
