The Bitsler partnership promotion has now ended.

It was great to work with Bitsler on this.

Bitsler were refunding up to $200 to all 250 BetKing accounts that had a balance on site when we closed after the hack in 2019.

230 accounts received a full refund of their balance*.

Bitsler also gave extra bonuses totalling almost $20,000 to most accounts that had a balance over $200.

This leaves only 20 accounts waiting for a complete refund, 10 of which are now invested in a new project that will provide a full refund to these 20 accounts.

The https://betking.io domain is also now an affiliate portal to some of the top BItcoin casinos, including Bitsler.
All affiliate commission from these links is being used to refund the accounts mentioned above and after that buy back remaining BKB tokens.

Thanks again to Bitsler and to all players and investors who have been supportive during this process.


* There were a few accounts with balances under $200 who never responded to any emails over the past 6 months or to telegram, twitter or other social posts. These balances were forfeit after having more than a fair amount of time and attempts to refund them.














In November 2019 https://betking.io closed after a hack that saw player and investor funds lost.
I stated I would find a way to refund all balances that were lost, mainly through new business ventures that I have now started.

I also approached and pitched ideas to a number of casinos that could see players refunded asap.

Bitsler quickly agreed to work together and refund all players who still had a balance on BetKing when we closed, up to $200.

In total Bitsler will refund over $18,000 to 250 players!
This is a no strings attached deal and they do not require users to deposit or wager to withdraw the refunded amount.

I can't thank the Bitsler team enough for being open to this idea and their dedication to the crypto gambling community.

To claim your refund you must do the following:

1) Signup to Bitsler with this link https://bit.ly/BitslerBK
2) Email your Bitsler username to support@betking.io
3) I will confirm your account with Bitsler
4) We will credit your Bitsler balance with the refund amount within 48 hours

Terms:
- Only available to BetKing accounts who had a BTC, ETH, LTC or EOS balance on the site when we closed.
- The maximum refund amount is $200.
- Bitsler will not be buying BKB or BKT and will not credit any amount for these balances.
- I will email all accounts that had a balance that are eligible for refund or contact them on Telegram.
- This offer ends on June 1st 2020. Any balances below $200 not claimed by then will be forfeit and used to refund larger balances.

For accounts that had over $200 on BetKing Bitsler may be willing to refund more than $200 depending on your case.
I will be in touch to discuss details.

Thanks again to Bitsler for doing this.

Dean

P.S. proof from Bitsler posted in their thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1268718.msg54234856#msg54234856

Why would you refund more than they have lost?  ???

The refunds are for balances that were on the site at the time the site closed

If someone had $50 they would be refunded $50. It is up to $200, so if someone had $350 they would be refunded $200 by Bitsler and I would still be refunding them $150 from my own pocket in future.

It's not a refund for your total gambling losses, only the balance held on site at the time of hack.

I'm not sure why gambling loses would be refunded lol, you getting your players on countless sites seemingly. Nice you managed to get some back to them.

Edit: haunebu, I will guess email's will be sent at the very least on side of this post.

Awesome stuff op. I trust Bitsler since they have been legit for a long time now which is why this is a great initiative to help players regain their lost funds even though I never gambled in your site myself.

Whatever happened with your site in the past is in the past. Its good to see you moving forward in a positive manner. I guess you would need to PM players since many would have forgotten due to the gap.

Thanks. I've been working for months on trying to get something like this going and Bitsler were quick and amazing to work with.
Can't think them enough and I'm sure players will really appreciate what they are doing.

I don't understand the trolls hating in their thread, like believe and say what you want about me but why do they actively go out their way to try and stop the players recovering the lost funds? Makes no sense.

This is just one step too. 90% of the people (and about 99.99% of the total $ lost) are in contact with me and they know my plans on how I am trying to also refund the larger balances of investors.
It's been terribly slow due to all the trolls actively trying to stop me from getting anything off the ground but the good thing is that the next project is not gambling based and requires no investment or bankroll.

I'll post again when there's more good news.

 

Thank you so much for making the right decision, I don't know what you have in mind, I don't even know if you have the ability to refund, cause a huge amount of money you took from investors during ICO, But if you are really able to give a refund, that's a good news. Looking forward to seeing something better.

You have to put up with the criticism since many players lost their hard earned money and were in a fix, but the negative criticism will decrease once you guys properly refund all the players.

Is it crypto related since it does sound interesting? If you successfully refund all players properly, I am confident that the same players will support you in your upcoming venture. All the best!

Finally a good move. Bitsler reputation is beyond doubt and this may help a little in clearing your name, after that messy situation (although don't expect this happen overnight!)

What a good gesture made by Bitsler and I wonder on why on earth they will give a refund on your losses while they doesn't get anything in return for doing it, but anyways this is a good news for your users since finally they can retrieve their money.

Kudos to Bitsler on the move, it's a good sign of the industry, and no surprise really once you know the old hands in the game and how they want to do right by people.

I'm one of the 10% not in contact with Dean I guess, but I have been seeing the resurgence in BetKing emails in my inbox. I don't have an outstanding balance that I recall (or if I did it wasn't much) but I did have a pending issue of payment that was never resolved, maybe OP remembers an email string that never concluded? Would this be the time to ask about that or are all bets off when it comes to BetKing (sportsbook related)?

Good luck to OP, I think it's a pity about what happened, and I hope you manage to clear your name.

Email back to one of them and we can chat and see what is available.

Just got the $200 from Bitsler! Thanks to all involved.

It is indeed, gambling owners should do this since their site got hacked and lose many funds. Even though not all the balance leff will be refunded at least around $200 are being refunded by bitsler. Even though I never gambled in this site but this is a great news for those who have gambled there.

Hello everyone. I have claimed my reward on Bitsler. It is legit. I received about 0.028 BTC. Credit goes to Bitsler for agreeing to help and Dean for arranging this. Thanks.

I am curious to know is there only 250 players who had lost fund their fund during close your site? If no then how are you going to recover other players. I don't know if I am missing something from your post, just point out if so. I don't know thread real story behind of close your site except so called hacking story. But I will say this is a good move to recover users fund. It make sense to imagine that you really care about your players since you may skip easily even without refund. I will expect you will recover all the funds even who lost above $200 somehow. Anyway I will say this is positive move.

It wasn't necessary to create self moderated thread.

Conveniently it did work out as 250 users when you consider some were alts of the same person.
There are not many who had a balance over $200 either and almost all of those people have been in constant chat with me since October and know what's going on.
Everyone will be refunded the full amount, I pitched the idea to Bitsler as the first step.

And unfortunately due to the trolls in this forum it was 100% necessary to create a self mod thread. You should see the posts I need to delete.

Created an account to say I received my $200. So thank you to Bitsler for this partnership! Regardless of past events I'm glad to see investors like myself getting some money back. Whilst I was one of the larger investors, I appreciate the constant effort from Dean to try and drum up new ideas and refund investors even if it is $200 here and there.

I see some of you already got your dues on Bitsler, as I said before, good on them and good for you guys.


Did that, realised most of the chats earlier were from BK in-site support but thanks anyway for your response. I'll wait to see if Bitsler would entertain my request, I suppose I won't mind wagering at a new site if there's money there already! Appreciate your considerations, and good luck sorting things out.

Thanks for update us.

Well this one is unexpected for Bitsler on having that partnership for refund consideration.Good news for BK users that had been affected in the past, at least they would be refunded by 200 bucks which is way more better than nothing at all.

Hello. I received around 0.0279 BTC on Bitsler. Thanks.

Got the $200 refund. Thanks!

  Sweet deal, got 200$, thank you Dean and Bitsler

Is great news for all users and great honesty about BK.

I hope, in the near future a profile rehabilitation for him.. because refunds talks.. arent words in the wind, are facts

My two cents, i dont know the full story

Got my bitcoin balance from Bitsler, gj Dean for trying to makes things whole.

Received $200 worth btc, thanks Dean.

Still a few people who have not claimed yet. Check your spam folders or check betking.io for refund details.
All refunds must be claimed before June 1st.

Also not, this is only for people who had a balance on the site when we closed. We've already had to delete over 60 emails from people trying to get free money  ;D

This offer is as described, I signed up through the link and got the $200, i was able to withdraw quickly as well.

It's a good offer, take it if you're elegible

Just confirming here that I received 0.02029611 in BTC on Bitsler. Thanks

He is doing a good job. Many people will not do it after they are rated negatively, although it is a small balance with many people but the attitude of the manager is positive. I still remember betking but it probably won't online again.

Refunds available for all players and bankroll investors who had a balance on site when we closed.

Check https://betking.io for details.

Still a couple of accounts not getting the emails. Or getting them and not replying.
Check your spam folder.

Welldone!



I am following Dean from his first casino and I am one of his investors from the very beginning.

From my point of view, it's only a matter of time for him to be able to find a way to deal with the situation.
This will give him the chance of stay in the “dice casino history” not only for what he DID (working on solutions) but mostly for what he DIDNT! (ex. Vanish :P)

Aside from me, many other people were already able to refund up to $200 easily from Bitsler.
Right now, there are already big progress happening in the background for people who has much larger investments to be refunded.
Let's all put positive energy, it will help these things to work better.

My best wishes to Dean.

I just wanted to add to this thread that so far, thanks to Dean, I have recovered the following amounts of my BetKing investment: 0.16437501 BTC and 1.18905309 ETH

That's nice.

dean said this and i quote. For anyone subscribed to this that doesn't get emails.

Since the last post in April there has been over $75,000 refunded to players and bankroll investors who had funds on the site when we closed and a couple of people who have had some BKB tokens refunded.

This has been done mainly from the Bitsler deal, casino affiliates and poker app club affiliates.

Still a long way to go to make everyone whole again but it's a good start and things are moving faster now.

Hopefully with the new projects and investment I have I will be able to refund everyone else a lot faster.

Will post another update when there's more good news.

my question now is what exactly happened to peoples money?

this is the most annoyinf scam i have ever withnessed . its so annoying to me because i warned people about this scammer.
1. betking was not hacked. dean ran with peoples money
2. he claims to be pays 200$. what happens to people that had close to 20,000usd or more in their accounts.
3 . he claims have refunded fully to some accounts, i can bet you those accounts are account with balances less than 20 or 50 dollars.
lastly he said he considers peoples cash forfeited because they never responded to emails? wtf.
