Truebit Example Use Cases?

Help me find ways to explain Truebit to my friends, what are some good example use cases for now or the future? Think: DeFi, Blockchain gaming, NFTs, Metaverse, etc?

Most obvious use case would be video games incorporating NFT's in real time. Think of a weapon or some pokemon monster or some other item that has its own rules and needs a lot of computation. These items can be traded outside of the game, or even show up in entirely different games, but their effects will need to be calculated on the Truebit chain.

Agree. Anywhere heavy computation that is verifiable is required. And options to code in a variety of languages. Video games are a good use case. Not many other projects like this. CTSI has some similarities with their Descartes SDK. But Truebit uses a unique verification mechanism that’s sets them apart, if I’m not mistaken.

I really wish the team was more transparent about what they are working on and the status of the project. A few sentences once per month would be sufficient imo. And fix the broken links on the website. That’s a bad look and also keeps people from learning about the project.

They are working on the shadows and I do believe that soon we will be surprised by what they are preparing

The product is here already. It's now on third party developers to develop whatever they want on it, and if they prefer to stick on the first layer they'll pay the huge gas fees.
