How would you explain a merkle tree using March madness?

IMO you can't. Because merkle proof proves that a leaf (or some other internal node) is a descendant of a specific root. That root implicitly contains chunks of every node in the tree. But the March madness's root contains no info on other siblings, just the cup winner.

All you need to determine the champion is the 7(? Idk I don't watch) teams that lost to the champion and you can verify.

You don't need to know the ourcome of every game

AI is such a life hack, I got you

Can you make one of my pfp? I'll zap you

Sure but please no zap. You want the ghibli? The above one was just "Angela Merkel tree" prompt, and came out ghibli ish lol

Sweet! Why no zap?

You zapped me more than other way around and I feel cheap collecting zaps on these lately.

It's really struggling with yours, or maybe it's just today is busy. Trying to make it get beard right but it keeps timing out. Needs better beard imo

Your time and effort is worth something.

If you get the beard better, I'll zap 😁🫂

Thanks fren

Once you have a winner you can confirm that every loser lost, but that they definitely played.
