Problems solved by technology

Usually, the presentation of numerous bets can obfuscate other bets, thereby further increasing the quantities of bets that an individual needs to search.
This can lead to inefficiencies as some bets that cannot be easily found may remain “unmatched.” An unmatched bet is a bet that has yet to found and matched by another individual.
Unmatched bets tie up individuals' wagers for an extended amount of time, thereby decreasing en

Abstract

A computer-implemented method for inviting members of a venture exchange to participate in a wager. The method includes receiving a wager placed by a first user; parsing the wager to determine wager characteristics associated with the wager; determining, using a processor, friends of the first user that have an affinity for the wager based on the wager characteristics; causing an interface to be displayed to the first user, where the friends of the first user are organized by a relative affinity for the wager; receiving a selection by the first user of friends to invite to participate in the wager; and transmitting a wager invitation to each friend selected by the first user.
