We built 55Prophets to be a new entertainment app, somewhat similar to fantasy sports, but available for any topic. We're calling it a "fantasy betting" application where you can create and/or join leagues about any number of topics, such as sports, tv shows, politics, or technology. You start each league with 10,000 prophits (our fantasy currency) that you can use to make bets.<p>To help demonstrate the concept, we created a Hacker News Predictions League and added some questions. For example, you might make bets on questions like:<p>* Will Facebook announce any acquisition of a YC company before Aug 1?<p>* Which will be the next tech company to announce an IPO?<p>* Will San Francisco change its law to make AirBnB rentals explicitly legal by Aug 1?<p>You can also submit your own questions for other people to bet on.<p>You can download our app from the app store here: <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/55prophets/id622424094?ls=1&mt=8" rel="nofollow">https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/55prophets/id622424094?ls=1&...</a><p>Once you have it installed, you can point your mobile browser to <a href="http://55prophets.com/deep_link/leagues/25/join" rel="nofollow">http://55prophets.com/deep_link/leagues/25/join</a> and it will open up the HN league in the app.<p>We'd love for you all to check it out and give us any feedback you have. Thanks!
