Description

Suggested value: $2,000 USD

Develop a way to verify proof of shuffle (true randomness) on a deck of cards to either open source code for existing electronic games, or to verify if existing games are actually shuffling cards.

Validate that players are fairly dealt cards, the cards dealt in their hands never change, cards are never added or swapped. Chip count of each player could be another data point, ensuring the player always has the right amount of chips, and bets are always going into the pot correctly.

Several games could be used as an implementation (ex. bridge, rummy, hold'em, etc.)

More information could be found from a discussion that took place during a Baseline Show

Motivation

To create a fully working implementation of baseline that can be used as another example of the power baseline has.
