Shame I missed this ICO, love the concept of betting on other coins. Two questions though -
1) What would the difference be in betting the price difference vs simply buying the coin? Would it mainly be similar to a type of futures leverage?
2) Where can I buy ETHORSE post-ico? EtherDelta no longer loads for me and I cannot find on CMC.
1) Ethorse provides a betting system widely used in Horse Betting - "Parimutuel Betting". With this, if your coin wins by having even a slightly higher performance, you win from everyone who bet on the other coins.
Eg: If everyone is betting on BTC or ETH, let's assume 100 ETH, and you are the only one to bet on LTC which later becomes a winner, then you get 100 ETH from the others even if you wagered only 0.1ETH. This is where the Pay-off odds come into play. Hopefully, this explains the huge potential of Ethorse in comparison to using the Exchanges. Also, there is no central party running these races, announcing the winner and issuing the payout. It's all done by smart contracts without any external control.
