Inspiration

I have always been fascinated by skill-based wagering games such as poker, and have invested no small amount of time, effort, and money playing it. Over time, I began to see numerous similarities between poker and one of my other passions — trading. Just as in poker, there is an inherent level of chance that can sway the outcome of your decision, and it is up to every player, or trader, to decide their favored risk threshold.

While losses due to chance are acceptable to poker players and traders alike, losses incurred due to unfair playing fields are not. Unfortunately for one of my favorite types of games, binary options, there is a significant principal-agent problem, where operators that provide access to wagering are earn from trader’s losses and have many incentives to cheat users.

Enter Bulls Vs. Bears. Our new binary options platform brings transparency and fairness to the binary options field, eliminating the above problems, and delivering transparent and fun trading experience.

What it is

Bulls Vs. Bears is a binary options platform where players can trade on 30-second candles.

Bulls Vs. Beas is also strictly PvP, meaning players only compete against each other, and the developers (us) have no incentives to be dishonest. Additionally, the implementation of PvP in trading creates a new, exciting way to trade. Players will know final potential payouts directly after their bets are finalized, and need to strategize and adapt their moves according to the crowd’s behavior.
