The problem it solves

Our projects solves the problem with traditional and normal betting based very much on luck, instead we made it for the people who love to play mobile or pc games. Before this people had a fear of losing their data to the companies which organize these bets in open like Dream11 on sports, Rummy Circle etc. but here we used zkProofs to compare the results and verify it without leaking the data on chain. This helps people to get a sense of security in case they lose too. Overall it elevates the betting game.

Challenges we ran into

OK!! So we had a hell lot of problems while making it working:

1. We firstly encounter the problem of generating the proof and then connecting it to the frontend, we didn't think it to be that hard, but after rigorous tries and fails, we finally did something which got it working for a reason, and there's a saying that don't disturb if it works.
2. Second problem came when we tried to attach API calls with the zk, it seemed very easy but was not, unfortunately we were unable to gather apis from the big game companies like Valorant. so we decided to stick on COC, whose was available for free.
3. We could not deploy it on vercel or any other website, maybe due to its complex nature, or one pain in tooth thing , that the API for COC was IP Address specific, so it was not possible for us to deploy it on vercel because we didn't have their IP Address and then API fetches were not made properly. So that was it, we tried it on some static address providers but they didn't fit for our project type , all of them wanted some mobile app kinda things, so we are still stuck the demo video is shot on localhost sadly, we will try our best in future to fix it.
