Problem & Anti-Problem with Betix Decentralized Application

There are several reasons that fixed matches are being made, but the biggest reason is for gambling purposes or monetary gain by the parties involved. Bookmakers love to make money, and knowing the outcome of a certain match can increase the odds that they are going to win the bet. It’s usually hard for people in the gambling industry to get an entire team or franchise to play along with their scheme. Most of the time, certain players or coaches will be contacted.
Individual parties might be offered some sort of reward for helping to fix a match. They can be heavily influenced by powerful players in the sports gambling world. Most of the time, fixed matches deal with the sport of soccer as it seems to be one of the easiest sports to manipulate.
There are other reasons that matches might be fixed, and other sports can be affected just the same. In the United States, the term “tanking” has been used to describe professional franchises that are losing games in order to improve their draft pick opportunity. While “tanking” isn’t as severe as what is going on in the soccer world, it could easily be described as match fixing. Usually, this type of scenario is not necessarily tied to the sports betting world. However, bettors can take advantage of teams who would benefit from losing games.
Betix is totally unregulated platform, and anyone can publish their predictions anonymously.
