Cool! So why did the main team insist upon the app approach (what's the benefit?), and what's this site doing to get around it?
Augur.casino runs their own node of Augur but runs it on IPFS, allowing others to connect to it.
Provides convenience if a user doesn't care about decentralization.
Just btw, I'm not affiliated with augur or augur.casino or any of these projects. I just find them interesting
