The Root-Paradox Partnership brings market participants the unique experience of a “Bet to Earn” market type ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2022.
NEW YORK, Nov. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Today Root, which is building on-chain betting via permissionless, generalized-oracle-settled markets with deep, scalable and highly capital-efficient liquidity, is announcing its partnership with Paradox, a peer-to-peer betting protocol that is launching a new parimutuel betting pool model for the FIFA World Cup 2022 that ensures all market participants get the best odds. The marketplace launches Wednesday, November 16, just ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2022 and will empower users and market participants to bet on the event using Roots, a new ERC-20 token developed by Root.
“Root is innovating across the entire tech stack to solve the on-chain betting problem and become the dominant liquidity hub for on-chain betting,” said Manifold, Root Founding Team. “The fair odds created by the Paradox parimutuel model creates a new way to bet on the World Cup for fans.”
Root leverages Beanstalk, a permissionless and uncollateralized fiat stablecoin protocol that currently stands as DeFi’s only decentralized credit-based stablecoin protocol. The Root-Paradox partnership creates a cutting-edge style of sports betting where all market participants get the best odds.
The FIFA World Cup 2022 marks the beginning of the truly unique, smart contract-enabled offering that Root-Paradox aims to deliver. With Paradox pools, everyone that has the same position will get the same odds, based on the pool odds at the time any sporting event starts. In the case of the FIFA World Cup, the odds will “Lock In” at Kickoff in Qatar beginning on November 20. Therefore, bettors are not exposed to getting worse odds because of player injuries or other miscellaneous factors that affect the odds between when the bet is placed and when the event starts. The tournament will remain active through December 18. Root-Paradox launching in correspondence with this iconic international event facilitates an exciting touchpoint for users to be involved in the future of decentralized sports betting.
