The problem
Skill-gaming platforms hold player funds and decide payouts, so players have to trust the house. There was no fair, trustless way to stake real money on a head to head match.
The approach
A MiniPay-native arcade on Celo where smart contracts escrow both players' stakes and release the pot to the winner on settlement. Players practice free against bots, then stake stablecoins head to head.
