Decentralized discipline:
For 3 months, I’ll run 4x a week for at least 30min
Deposit 1 ETH
Smart contract gives your friend sole authority to say if you hit goal
Contract gives ETH to friend if you miss goal
No turning back!
Will prob build w/ @devonzuegel soon

It’s not decentralized if it requires a friend?

No one can revert the code or shut it down. Think Napster vs BitTorrent.

I think your friend could. If you asked nicely. Or threatened your friendship

Friend can’t shut down the platform. Anyways, decentralization is a spectrum and one meaning can be what you’re saying, but it isn’t helpful to view this as the only way IMO.

I view this as closer to Napster since the power is centralized to one friend. Maybe if you distributed the ultimate call to a panel of strangers, who are somehow compensated based on their ability to reach consensus.

The contract pairs people, it isn't limited to two people. Two people can violate the intent just like someone can share a fake torrent. You could do this consensus thing but it wasn't the point here. I just want a lazy GymPact (https://techcrunch.com/2014/01/01/pact/ …) and I trust my friends.

Can't you just give your friend the same amount of money and have them pay you back as you run?
