Introduction
What is Vendetta Markets?
Vendetta Markets is a decentralized betting platform built on the Neutron blockchain, offering users a transparent, fair, and secure environment for betting. Initially focusing on esports, Vendetta Markets provides betting opportunities on popular titles like League of Legends, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO ), Dota 2, and Valorant.
Recognizing the growing demand in the broader sports betting market, Vendetta Markets plans to expand its offerings to include live sports such as Tennis, Soccer, NBA, NFL, and others, thereby catering to a wider audience of live sports enthusiasts.
How does it work?
Vendetta Markets leverages smart contracts on the Neutron blockchain to facilitate betting activities. Users can engage in various betting markets, including parimutuel, fixed odds, and order book markets. While the platform emphasizes decentralization, it currently utilizes centralized oracles to ensure accurate and timely result reporting. This hybrid approach combines the benefits of decentralized infrastructure with the reliability of centralized data sources, ensuring fair and transparent bet settlements.
