Project description

I want to create a Telegram bot as an interface for Manifold Markets. It will enable an additional way to use MM personally. It'll also feature ways to:

  • publish Markets as posts in Telegram Channels (essentially, blogs in Telegram)

  • create and use Markets from inside Telegram group chats

The bot will be free to use, and open-sourced under MIT license.

I will also try to contribute to Manifold APIs whatever I find lacking for this project, but I have no guarantees that my contributions will necessarily be accepted (though I'll try my best), so I can't consider this to be a fundable part of the project.

Optionally, if there's interest, I'm considering:

  • having this bot run its own, private Markets (e.g. to use inside groups for integral group bets), and/or perhaps contribute to Manifold a way to publish private / secret markets and use them in this way

  • integration with more platforms than Telegram (perhaps Discord, Slack?)

  • integration with other prediction-market platforms

  • other features?

What is your track record on similar projects?

I created several Telegram bots, some of them fun and/or popular (my favourites are the AI-powered https://t.me/EveryLanguageGrammarBot and https://t.me/GetOverItBot ). I'm also writing a Rust library for the MM API: https://crates.io/crates/manifold-markets

How will you spend your funding?

It's my time and a tiny bit for hosting.
