I've written down the numbers and stats for last month, however the update to the thread will be a bit delayed
due to a hardware error and me not keeping an external backup of the exel file I use to do the table/charts.

I'll go buy a screwdriver tomorrow and get an update out by the end of the week month.



ETC has been added and will be tracked from this month going forward.
With ETC coming into the chart, I'll also take a second look at how to integrate BCH and might be adjusting the GRC/GAS line.

I am pretty sure there is no point in adding auto roll for roulette.
I can give you two:

1) It's an often requested feature, people ask about it a lot, and while not all users might want/need it, some certainly would appreciate it being added.
2) Roulette has the highest house edge (among the games offered at CG) and you would want to encourage people playing it, from an investor and administrator perspective.

Whatever odds you are going for, you might as well configure your dice wagering and percentage and its kind of like dice.
But you cannot win the roulette jackpot on dice, which is something you can't configure or "kind of" simulate using dice. It's exclusive to those users playing roulette.



There is a way to do it, although it lacks a stop on win that would be useful when chasing a single number.

~snip script~
It's a workaround that kinda does the job, although an integrated autobet function with a GUI would be a lot better.
You can use it as an interim solution.
Personally, I'd like to see an autobet option on roulette as well, I'm not a big roulette player, but the way I see it, the demand for it among users is big.

To make sure I'm understanding the rollover correctly, if you say you have a 50% rollover, that means that if the bankroll is 100 coin then 50 coin were wagered that month?
That's correct, as explained in the original post, rollover is a simple comparison between all combined wagers in a month and the current bankroll.

Explanations:

Rollover: The rollover is calculated based on total wagers and bankroll size, it ignores different house edges and is shown in percent.

Seems like a kind soul has kicked down the site
More likely the scammers have abandoned this domain to set up shop at another one (or 10) because of the threads pointing out their wrongdoings.

no longer posibel to connect to btconer.io
However, there are still a few similar domains out there, and new ones likely coming soon as well.

WUHUUUUUUUUUUUUU
I'd be joining your celebrations, if it wasn't for the fact the damage by these scammers is currently 6BTC and counting.
Them not doing any more harm with this domain is alright, ideally however, they wouldn't be able to do any harm to start with, because all users are aware of these kind of actions.

Just to correct you about roulette. Maximum win per field is 50 ETH, but you can win more than 50 ETH in a single round if you f.e. bet on RED + Number 23, those are two fields and your max win will be 100 ETH.
OK, I didn't find that in the FAQ, it just says you can bet between 0.0002 ETH and 70 ETH. What's the maximum for Bitcoin (just in case I ever run into it)?
70 eth for the max bet? Are for sure because what I played is basically 7.8 eth at the most highest payout for dice game, I do not know about other games, it must be definitely the same payout. But with such site having 70 eth max payout this mean they got pretty huge bankroll or invested. And if you are curious about the investment, I can tell you the last time I see is around 5.8k eth invested there but giving max 7++ eth payout
It honestly baffles me you have not yet been banned for spamming/posting nonsense comments. So much wrong information in a single post, while even quoting those posts that have the correct information.
Anyway, let's see about this point for point.



70 eth for the max bet?
Nope, as already mentioned, roulette limits a max win per field, not a maximum bet.

Are for sure because what I played is basically 7.8 eth at the most highest payout for dice game
Nope, dice has a maximum win limit, not a maximum payout (the payout is your bet + what you win).
Currently the maximum bet on dice with ETH is 1,083 and the maximum win is 108.33 ETH (a bit more than your 7.8 ETH), which brings the maximum payout to 1,191.63 ETH (combination of max bet + max win).

I do not know about other games, it must be definitely the same payout.
No, it definitely does not have to be the same.
General consensus for the risk crowdfunded casinos should take is that maximum wins per single bet can be up to the house edge of the game.

Sounds complicated, but it actually isn't. It simply means that the maximum win on dice can be up to 0.8% (house edge on dice) of the total bankroll.
As roulette has a higher house edge (2.7% compared to 0.8%, more than threefold), we could possibly offer higher maximum limits there.
Of course that is in comparison to the actual limit on dice, the 108.33 ETH, not your assumption of 7.8 ETH being the limit.

But with such site having 70 eth max payout this mean they got pretty huge bankroll or invested.
Well, I guess, yeah, technically, you are kinda, ok, that's true. I cannot disagree with anything in this part of the post. I'll give you that.

And if you are curious about the investment, I can tell you the last time I see is around 5.8k eth invested there but giving max 7++ eth payout
At house edge limit, 5800 ETH would allow a maximum win (still not payout) of 46.4 ETH (not just 7), which is 0.8% of that imaginary bankroll.
However, that is not where the ETH bankroll is at, because you can check it on the landing page, it's public information, and if you spend 5 seconds before posting to do so,
you would find out that the current ETH bankroll is 21,960 ETH, not your assumed number.

21,960 ETH in bakroll funds allow for up to 175.68 ETH maximum wins at the house edge threshold.
As you can see, CG even takes a little more conservative approach to the dice max win and sets it lower than the industry standard, with 108.33 ETH just being at 0.5% of the total bankroll.



You could have saved you this embarassment if you only would spend 5 minutes reading and checking what you are posting about.
That shouldn't be asking too much, especially if you are in a signature campaign and actually being paid for making these posts.
Also, you probably don't want your posts to be full of wrong numbers, because when people notice that you're wrong again and again, you lose all your credibility.

Good news for those of you that dislike reCaptchas (and frankly, who doesn't).

The implementation of captcha protection for login attempts has been adjusted to be way more friendly towards regular users (while still holding those parties malicious to either your accounts or the site at bay).
This should be especially beneficial for those users that value their privacy and log in via popular VPNs or a TOR connection, as reCaptchas can be incredibly difficult on those, often without any fault of yours.
Hopefully nobody gets locked out of using crypto.games due to an impossible captcha barrier anymore with this change and everyone can get back to enjoying gambling.

Cross-posting this from the official thread as it should be interesting to investors as well (especially those with a bigger investment amount that might be affected by the limits once divested and withdrawn).

Just a quick question. Do you also get instant withdraws when you win (and cash out) like 500 ETH or more?
The main limitation there is hot wallet size, big transactions like that can quickly reach the full amount of the available hot wallet (as the hot wallet size is limited for security reasons),
and thus be delayed simply by the fact there aren't enough funds in the automatic system to be processed, which then needs manual interference of someone moving funds to refill the hot wallets.

Determining the full hot wallet for most coins is hard, as all funds are spread over many different addresses, with ETH however, there is just one main address,
so we can plot the balance of that one to guesstimate the "instantly available" funds.
Doing so from block 1,012,078 (Feb 2016) results in the following graph:



As you can see, at one point, there were almost 10k ETH in the hot wallet (though that spike is just short, as the funds of course were quickly moved into a more secure storage location).
While that historic chart is nice to look at, it doesn't give us much information about the current situation (numbers from 2 years ago are kinda outdated, especially with all the price changes since).
So let's zoom in a little, and look at a graph for the last 4 months:



While the wallet balance fell below 100 ETH a few times, most of the time withdrawals of at least 200 ETH could be processed instantly from the available funds in the hot wallet,
with there being at least 500 ETH or at least 1000 ETH available a fair amount of time as well.

I have no way to know about Mayson's transactions, but I would guess the latest drop in hot funds from cca 450 to cca 50 comes from them withdrawing what they had won at one point.
Which also means their withdrawals have been processed instantly from the hot wallet, but that is (as already mentioned) just a guess.



I was planning to do more extensive charts/stats in higher intervals, eg every 6 months or every year.
If you have suggestions about what additional information you would find interesting to be included in those, let me know.

Dear Lutpin can you give more info? I joined this signature campaign on 7 July (10 days ago).
You didn't join, you've applied for a position.
Applicants are reviewed with every payround (as the campaign is fixed, not pay per post, thus payments are based on time the signature is worn and mid-round enrollments make no sense).
I have reviewed your application after I made last rounds payments and decided to deny it. Thus your name not being included in the post with new enrollments.

Sending me several PMs with nothing else than your enrollment post won't change the basics of how I manage this campaign.
(Neither will leaving me neutral feedback for not understanding how/when enrollments happen.)

I contacted them on telegram and they have confirmed to me that the campaign is over!
Everyone can thus remove their signatures. I agree that they should have informed us also on bitcointalk.
That is somewhat hard right now, as both Wapinter and Wapinter Bounty Portals (as well as all their possible alternative accounts) are currently banned from using this forum.

Regarding the manager - Ultra(7356) is having issues with his account on BitcoinTalk - his original acccount got muted by admins a while ago and as far as I know it's been a huge misunderstanding. The new account he got from someone, which was supposedly "high-rank, high-merit, healthy", but turned out to be violating some forum rules, so it got negative trust.
Was he evading a ban by purchasing another account? That's no good.
Lutpin, the ban he received was accidental, not intentional, but he had a hard time reaching the mods again to resolve the issue, as far as I know.  I don't know much else after that, but I wouldn't really call it "evading a ban" if the ban was accidental. He didn't do anything ban-worthy on his account; from what I know he got mixed up with somebody else.
Determining on whether or not the initial ban was reasoned and rightful is not on you, nor is it on me. That's up to the moderation of this forum, and their decision is what counts, not our opinions about it.
Regardless, ignoring the initial mistake or not, evading a ban is the wrong response to being banned, even if by mistake.
Ban evasion is an offense of its own, and regardles of whether or not they are guilty of whatever they got initially banned for, they now are definitely guilty of ban evasion.



The original (banned) account of Paractor is moooonu, correct?

what you tell here just proff further more the site is scam..
Doesn't need any more proof than them claiming to be operating under a Curacao eGaming license which happens to be the company behind crypto.games
Super quick to find out and an instant red flag.

Is the limit for the 4 corner bets all covering 23 combined to total 5BTC or 5BTC for each bet?
The 5BTC limit affects every stack of chips you place individually.

5BTC per field (or to be more accurate per single type of bet, every stack of chips you place has their own max win), at which point you can start adding corners and splits, which count towards their own limit.

This post focuses only on the wallet based answer to your question and ignores manual checks and any other reason for transaction delays.
It's not a complete answer and not the best one you can get, but I think it gives a fair estimate of what you were looking for.

Also charts, because nerd loves charts <3
