MNEEBet - Decentralized P2P Betting Arena

🏆 Built for MNEE Hackathon: Programmable Money for Agents, Commerce, and Automated Finance

🎯 Project Overview

MNEEBet is a fully decentralized peer-to-peer betting platform that leverages MNEE USD-backed stablecoin as the escrow currency. Two users stake equal amounts, a human judge resolves disputes, and the winner receives the full pot instantly through atomic smart contract execution.

Why MNEEBet Matters

Traditional betting platforms suffer from:

❌ Centralized custody of funds
❌ Hidden fees and unfair house edges
❌ Delayed payouts and account freezes
❌ Price volatility in crypto bets
❌ Lack of transparency

MNEEBet solves all of these problems:

✅ Non-custodial escrow - funds locked in smart contract
✅ Zero platform fees - 100% of pot goes to winner
✅ Instant settlement - atomic payout on resolution
✅ Stable value - MNEE maintains $1.00 USD peg
✅ Transparent & immutable - all actions on-chain

🚨 Important Deployment Notice

Current Status: Sepolia Testnet Deployment

Due to insufficient ETH for mainnet deployment, this hackathon submission currently runs on Sepolia testnet.

What This Means:

✅ Full Protocol Implementation: Complete smart contract with all production features
✅ Identical Codebase: Exact same contract ready for mainnet deployment
✅ Mock MNEE Token: Created on Sepolia to demonstrate real MNEE integration
✅ Production Architecture: Built for Ethereum mainnet from day one

Mainnet Deployment Requirements:

Real MNEE Token: 0x8ccedbAe4916b79da7F3F612EfB2EB93A2bFD6cF (Ethereum Mainnet)
Estimated Gas: ~~0.03-0.05 ETH (~~$80-130 USD)
Status: Awaiting deployment funds

Current Deployment:

Network: Sepolia Testnet
MNEEBet Contract: 0x3480874a63D459046993915b52e612ee69947a81
Mock MNEE Token: 0xb8B51876429980d20ed20796B1C4294f1Fc75145

Post-Hackathon Plan: Once deployment funds are secured, the contract will be deployed to Ethereum mainnet with zero code changes. Simply update the MNEE token address in the constructor:

// Current (Testnet)
MNEEBet(0xb8B51876429980d20ed20796B1C4294f1Fc75145);

// Mainnet Ready
MNEEBet(0x8ccedbAe4916b79da7F3F612EfB2EB93A2bFD6cF);

🔐 Security Considerations

Smart Contract Security

Audited Patterns:

OpenZeppelin ReentrancyGuard for all state-changing functions
Ownable access control with owner-only emergency functions
Pausable circuit breaker for critical vulnerabilities

Attack Vectors Mitigated:

✅ Reentrancy attacks (all external calls protected)
✅ Front-running (no price-dependent logic)
✅ Integer overflow/underflow (Solidity 0.8+ built-in checks)
✅ Denial of service (gas-optimized, no unbounded loops)

Known Limitations:

Judge selection is trust-based (social layer, not technical)
Emergency withdraw requires 30-day timelock
No built-in dispute arbitration beyond flagging

Recommended Security Practices

For Users:

Only bet amounts you can afford to lose
Choose judges you trust and verify their address
Read bet terms carefully before accepting
Verify contract address before approving MNEE

For Judges:

Only accept judge role for bets you can fairly evaluate
Document your reasoning for resolution decisions
Resolve promptly after deadline passes
