Bitcoin Forum

We want to let everyone know this is the official relaunch of https://fastbluff.com we added some little features, like hot key short cuts. Press h on the site to see them all

We added a notification of new chat messages, we added a view of the last 20 bets updated thru ajax and lot of major security and major performance upgrades that were needed.

We are still working hard to bring the site to a place where it can be a modern gaming site, but we are on right track! Go enjoy and have fun!

Made a withdrawal that is apparently bigger than the wallet balance. Let's see if they pay it. It was 0.261 btc.

Yes there were some large deposits that were pushed into our overflow cold storage wallet, so you had coins sent from there. Thank you for playing and sorry about that.

Just confirm here that we have paid you out.

Thank you.

Confirmed. Thanks for being legit! I shall be back. The site is great and I hope it goes far! :)

Thank you so much! Good Luck on your future visits to the site!

Just an update on what we been working.

First off we are completely rewriting the site, at first this will not be apparent to the users, but this will allows us to scale, adding features quickly and be more organized in our code, leading to bugs being fixed faster. We had a great base code to start with, but we can't run on that forever, it was becoming a mess with just our minor additions. This will also allow us to quickly spawn alt coin versions of the site as well.

Second if you want us to add any altcoins, lets us know what you guy's favorites are and we can add them after our launch. Remember these altcoins have to be based on the bitcoin codebase. Also if you are part of an altcoin foundation, we would love to talk to you as well. Pm us and reply to this thread.

Third we will be adding affiliate links so you can earn money while sending us to your friends, family or anyone that wants to play some dice.

Fourth, we want to update everyone about the invest feature.The invest feature, is pretty much complete, but we haven't launched it for a number of reasons. The biggest reason is we currently don't have enough people using the site daily. The site makes a healthy profit for us daily, which keeps us wanting to keep building it, but before we launch the invest feature, we want to make sure our investors would make a healthy profit as well.


Thank you to the community that has keep us wanting to better this site and really bring it into the next level!

Thank you, enjoy the site! We instantly payout!

We are piloting a signature campaign, if you want to be apart of it head over to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=684966.0 and sign up!

A new round of the signature campaign is beginning get your spot today!

Do you have feedback? Leave it here, as we are almost ready to launch our next version! With so many new things.

We are a top gambling site and the only gambling site that has investments from top investors!

Do you want free monies to play for the next hour(3:40pm-4:40pm PST) anyone that deposits any amount (above 0.003 BTC) and bet any amount over 0.001, and then post here your username from https://fastbluff.com we will give you 700 Bits added to your balance, for whatever you want to do with it!

Doesn't get much easier!

I might have missed this, but is 1 bit equal to: 0.00001 BTC?  So 700 bits would be 0.007 BTC?  If this is correct, I'll deposit right away  ;D

Ugh. Never mind. Not interested.  0.0007 btc?  No thanks...

No one bit is equal to 0.000001 BTCs 1 Bitcoin is equal to 1,000,000 Bits this is the standard.

You didn't bet and deposit during the time I posted.

Works on my ipad, I am using that right now on the site.


We only use ajax and html5, no flash or plugin.

No one claimed this? Wow guess this forum doesn't like free money!

The site is working perfectly for us, we also used a VPN to make sure it was working across the globe. Also our uptime service is not reporting an outrage.

long time im not play in FASTBLUFF.. maybe i will play again..
FASTBLUFF NOW better than BEFORE.. :)

We hit over 1 Million Bets!

We are going to be posting some questions that people are bringing to our attention.


Some people don't believe that we had a lot of bitcoins wagered on our site. We have had some big rollers on our site! We will be thinking about the best way to make this data more accessible to the public!

 

We are not a scam dice site. We have never scammed in anyway! We are currently the only and first dice site to raise capital from actual investors! If this doesn't prove we aren't out to scam then you are just loyal to a brand and that is ok, but don't spread lies about our site.


Anytime we get or are notified of a negative post about us we will be answering it here.

If we were a scam site, wouldn't we have deleted this message instead of posting it. Also we have 27K+ users registered in our database. About 80% of those users have done both deposit and withdraw at least once. If we were a known scam site wouldn't we have a lot more people posting about not getting their money back? Do a search for "fastbluff" you will see no references to a scamming in anyway.


Please don't listen to the false information about us.

What is the unique in this site of another extra dice? what is new?

Well we just purchased the site the less than a month ago this is what we purchased with minimal updates (Security updates before relaunching it, auditing of the actual probability algo which a lot of sites don't do, and adding small feature request). So for now the only uniqueness of our site is that we are the First and Only dice site to raise a VC seed round of funding from trusted investors. I am hoping that this would show users that we have a long term vision for crypto-currency dice and gambling using crypto-currencies.

We also have a new backend being built from the ground up in a totally new programming language, this takes time. Alot of the site will not look different but the way it functions will be faster. Of course we are adding affiliate earnings and things people have been requesting for awhile. We also will have some things that no other dice game has, allowing both new players and old players to earn bitcoins in fun new ways. You know faucets are getting kinda boring and old now ;)

Not only do we have all that going on, we are also looking to allocate some of our funds to building a dedicated forum for cryptocurrency gambling. We are still very early in this process, but we want to step up and really make a positive community not only for sites, but also people that just enjoy gambling.

We are heavy invested here, and not leaving anytime soon!

 

I hope to see it back active as soon as it sight! :)

We are doing our best and we are spending a lot of money to test different ways of marketing it, and we will bring to be the premier dice site we are envisioning.

But we can't do that without a lot of help from the community, and so far we have some really great members that have reached out to us, with constructive comments, feedback and request. Just like any other startup, I have one direction and vision, but as time goes on we can refine that by using community feedback to drive the actual path of how to get from A to B.

We are not a scam nor have we ever scammed anyone, over 25K+ users have withdrawn and deposited on our site, with no issues and all have gotten their bitcoins! If we did we wouldn't be posting these claims and we just be deleting. Instead we take them head on.

I want to take a second to explain our actions when we are accused of scamming. First we believe the people that they were scammed by us. Second we start checking our bitcoind instance to make sure it didn't crash, or that it isn't behind in the blocks. We treat our bitcoind node as not trustworthy source and seek external services as our trustworthy node. Third we check our own ledgers, we have a double edit system, so maybe we saw the transaction but didn't credit it to the balance. We rebuild the balance from that ledgers for all users. We then check the address against these other services to see if a transaction of that size was ever sent to the addresses in the first place.

In both these cases, we never got an 8 BTC deposit, and for the other, they never deposited anything. So they were banned for make these false claims, that take resources from other things and put all hands on deck.

Thank you.

By the way. Fast Bluff, What is the intention of the name?
If its what it sounds - I won't register there.

We purchased the site about a month ago, it is the domain that came with the site. I think the intention from the previous owner was that it was fast to gambling on the site.


Please stop reading into our site, looking for a scam, we are not going to scam! We are running an honest site! We would appreciate it if you think we are going to scam you, just don't use the site. It is that easy!

We have some great news to tell the community.

The great news is we survived our first big DDOS attack this morning. Pretty much this entire week and last week people have been hitting us with small DDos attacks that didn't really do much and we manually stopped them. This one was bigger, and knocked us offline for a couple of seconds as our IDS was triggered in action.

When our IDS is triggered into action, this automatically tells our hot wallet to empty everything to the cold storage wallet. We also do a quick offsite backup, of the users, balances and emergency addresses, incase we can't get back to the server, or whatever. This is on top of all the backing up we do anyway. These action were all triggered and performed perfect as well as the IDS regained our servers in minutes.

This did cause problems for two players, who not only didn't attack us in our chat or the thread here, but actually calmly believed in our abilities and emailed us nicely. Which by this time they just wanted their funds since the hot wallet emptied out. We have since paid them and even gave them something extra for their trouble but just for not being trolls! Refilled the hot wallet and now we back on track.

If you still think we are scamming this again proves we are not here to scam!


-Investors and Management team!

How long this site is exist?

Just curious, how are you stopping ddos attacks? Are you using a service like cloudflare, or are you mitigating them with a hardware firewall?

I'm just asking because I'm curious how people mitigate ddos attacks in the real world.

The site has been around since march, and we purchased it last month. As far as I can tell by the double edit ledger and pass forum post no one was was scammed during that time. Since we purchased it, we have paid off all debts.

Our IDS sets firewall rules, plus our hoster has a hardware firewall as well. We will never use a service like cloudfare because you have to give them the private key of the SSL certificate and we don't feel that is safe.

When will be the invest panel working?

When we get more people playing on it, which our next update will focus alot on. We would like to have our investors make a healthy profit, and right now the site makes good money, but if we need to splitting that money with a lot of different people, it will become extremely small.

Also our investing will work in a different way from all the other sites. It isn't a new way of investing just a different way integrated into the site.

FastBluff, you keep talking about all these great changes and promotion schemes that your site will have, which will be different and better than what any other site provides.
However, so far 1) you have not committed to any specific changes, and 2) you have not delivered anything.
If I were you I would stop advertising and start delivering.

We have only had the site for a month, when we first got the site we worked 72 hours straight to make the site secure. Which it wasn't as security as we felt safe with under our management. Also we fixed some bugs.

After that we took two weeks to design and figure out what feature we wanted in this release and not.

Right now we are rebuilding the site in a whole new programming language and building everything so it will be easy to extend it. Also we had to scrap a feature cause we found out another site will be implementing it. We don't want to be accused of stealing an idea, which people in this section of the forum will gladly accuse us of doing. They have no problem telling everyone we scam when we don't, I can't imagine what people would do knowing we have a similar feature like other sites.

Then we have hired a pentesting firm to check it over and make sure we are completely safe, this will take sometime.

To be honest we are working hard on our site, 24/7 we work on this site, and to have people like you just come here to tell us go faster is just insulting. We would rather go slow and do it right, then listen to people like you who have no clue how development works.

Again we are not a scam, and it is sad that people keep posting this about us. Please if you think we are a scam just stay away, but don't spread false information.

Also it doesn't hurt our profit, it is has yet to go downward, so it is a waste of time.

As much as this hurts us to say but tonight we will be blocking tor nodes from connecting to our service. We are announcing this as we know some people that use tor have a balance, and we want those people to have time to get their withdraws in, unless they decide they don't want to use tor on our site anymore.

All the chat spam comes from tor nodes and we don't want to deal with it anymore it takes our resources to make sure these accusations are not true. So the investors and us have decided that this is the best course of action.

Here is the message from our investors:

"Sadly users of our site will have even harder time to be anonymous, as the actions of someone or group of people are just taking too many resources from our development and security team. We are sorry but we need to protect the site's manpower.

This change will happen at 12am EST 7-31-14


We are sorry but again we are the victim of being a great site."

We will be lowering our house edge at the end of the week. It will go from 1% to 0.9% this is to stay competitive.

We are looking to launch our verison 2 next week as soon as our pentesting firm is done. This version will focus on giving back to all types of users of our site. This is new users and old users!

We will be giving out a 24hr warning, incase people want to withdraw their bitcoins during this time, since we will be down for an extended time.

Absolutely NOT, no one has lose any money due to withdraws! We are just letting people know what to expect, because if we didn't then you would call us scammers, but either way I guess we are scammers.

V1 works perfectly, our dev ops have test it against Europe, Asia, USA and Central America. The site loads fine with all those. It maybe cloudfare in the front of our web server, but our hoster is in control of that, and we can't control it.


V2 as we said, will be focused on giving back to users in different ways.

This website is now a SCAM! They are withholding my 0.298 btc withdrawal with an excuse that I was overpaid by a staff member who is now fired. What the hell? The only extra btc i ever received from them was a 0.05 btc for a long withdrawal wait a while ago.

Stay away! This site is just a scam now.

it seems that the website is no longer exist

Yup the site is inaccessible, but I am not sure if it is just a technical issue or if the owners have done a runner.

Owner selling his site.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=785169.0

Guess my btc is gone, then. Will chalk it up as a loss and a valuable learning experience. How unfortunate...

Didn't run we paid out all balances thru emergency addresses that is why they are there ;).



Also no comment on rulishix issue because we now have a lawyer not directly but indirectly involved and he has told me not to make any public comments about it. But his trust rating is red for a reason.
