How it works

Every racing tipster shows their winners.
You can verify ours.

Australian thoroughbred racing tips with the working shown. Wins, losses and walked tips — every one published the same day, then anchored to the Bitcoin blockchain at the end of every month so the record can't be edited.

The problem

The Australian tipster industry is built on selection bias.

Every racing Twitter account you've followed has shown the winners and quietly deleted the losses. The “sharp” with eight tweeted winners last month had eighty losers behind them — they just weren't tweeted, weren't logged, weren't available for you to check.

Pattern 01

Tweets deleted

A tipster posts a big winner today, deletes it tomorrow. The good days are the only days you see.

Pattern 02

Records edited

Spreadsheets that get quietly retconned. Past tips revised after-the-fact when the result was bad.

Pattern 03

Stats cherry-picked

“Up 40% this season” — but the season started two weeks ago, when this run started.

We thought it deserved a different answer. Not another “trust me” tipster — a record you can audit yourself, in the open, forever.

The claim

We publish every loss.
Cryptographically anchored
to Bitcoin.

At the end of every month, every tip — wins, losses, walked tips, voids — gets hashed with SHA-256 and anchored on the Bitcoin blockchain via OpenTimestamps. Anyone, forever, can verify we haven't edited the record.

The audit machine

Three steps. Verifiable in thirty seconds.

Every part of this is open source and independently checkable. Nothing requires trusting us.

01

The ledger

At month-end we generate a canonical CSV of every tip published that month — wins, losses, walked, voided. Same column order every time. No fields removed. No exclusions.

tips.csv
02

The hash

The CSV is hashed with SHA-256 — a 64-character fingerprint. Change a single byte and the hash changes completely. The hash IS the record's identity.

8f3a91…c2d4
03

The anchor

The hash is submitted to OpenTimestamps, which writes it into the Bitcoin blockchain. Anchored forever. Block height is recorded, anyone can verify against any Bitcoin node.

block 891,402

Verify any month yourself.

Download the CSV and the OpenTimestamps proof file from the audit page. Then run two commands on your laptop — no special software required.

# Compute the hash
shasum -a 256 tips.csv
# Verify the OTS proof
ots verify tips.csv.ots

Mismatch? We edited the record. Match? We didn't. The Bitcoin blockchain is the judge — not us, not you, not any third party we could pay off.

A Saturday morning

What being a subscriber actually feels like.

One disciplined card. One walk-away price. Settled the same day. Published — wins, losses and walks all — within hours of jump.

Fri 5 PM

The card publishes

Live on your dashboard the moment the Saturday card is locked. Email digest follows at 7am Saturday morning. Track, race, runner, our model’s fair price, the market price, walk-away floor and stake — all on one card. No filler.

10:35 AM

Race jumps

If the market shortens past the walk-away before the off, the bet is pulled. We log it as walked, P&L zero. Most weeks one tip walks, sometimes none. We’d rather miss a winner than chase a shortened price.

By 7 PM

Settled and published

Result lands on the public results page. Win or loss, immediately. The audit ledger gets the row. End of month, that row is in the SHA-256 hash that goes onto Bitcoin. No edits, no retroactive polish.

The walk rule

Every Best Bet ships with two prices: the price we tipped, and the walk-away. If the market shortens past the walk-away before the off, we walk. Sometimes the horse wins anyway and we miss it. We're fine with that — discipline beats hindsight, and over a long sample, walking out of bets where the edge has evaporated is what protects expected value.

Public receipts

Every claim above has a public page.

We don't hide behind paywalls. The receipts are public on purpose — read them before you pay a dollar.

Build in public

We won't take your money for the model-only engine until four gates clear.

Subscribers can pay today for the curator-tier picks (analyst reviewed, walk rule applied, published openly). The model-only picks stay in shadow mode until the evidence supports flipping them on.

01

≥ 200 settled bets

Below 200 the sample is too small to mean anything. Above 200 the noise starts to settle and we can be honest about what the engine is doing.

02

+5% profit-on-turnover

A real edge — not 1%, not 2%. Five percent net of all losses, walked tips, voided races.

03

95% CI floor > 0%

A bootstrap confidence interval whose lower bound is strictly positive. Mathematically confident the mean isn’t a fluke.

04

Mean CLV > 0%

Closing-line value: are we tipping at prices the market shortens after we tip? If yes, we’re identifying value. The leading indicator.

All four conditions, simultaneously. The traffic-light dashboard tracking it is admin-only today, a public mirror is on the roadmap. Until then we won't flip the switch.
