Darebux: earn money doing dares [beta]

This is one of the worst ideas I've ever heard of. That being said, PG says a lot of unicorn ideas sound terrible at first.
So either this will be a big hit, or huge failure

Encode those dares in a blockchain and you'll be swimming in funding.
The movie 'Nerve' [1] immediately comes to my mind.
Some supervision about what dares are acceptable is definetly necessary. Otherwise thinfs might get out of control rather quickly.

https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/dare-bux#section-ove... - This page says 2015. Has this been in the works for that long? The website also says there is an iOS app but nothing seems to be on the App Store.
Yes, we had the idea since 2015, sadly we were rejected from a few accelerator programs and even Y-combinator twice. We are only a 2 people team, with less technical skills/self funded. We were tired of rejections then spent time completing university degree and work. Only took it seriously, last year after we got good feedback from tech crunch AUS event. iOS, we are fixing some bugs before we can alpha test it in 1 week.
I think this should be Show HN also - as per my suggestion here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18174240
While this idea might sound terrible at first I think it has huge potential.
that said, I think your big problem will be illegal dares.
ignoring whatever the dares are exactly, there's arguably a use-case for money laundering
Sounds like the plot of that film "Nerve".
is this just for dares between friends or will you be building a two sided global market of darers and darees?
