Well, I was with Stake.com from the start and they also started with zero requirements to join the chat... now with all the bots and the rain farmers and beggars, they implemented wager requirements as a counter measure to reduce their impact.

You are still relatively small..... but as you grow and Alt accounts increase... you will also be forced to implement similar counter measures. (mark my words) 

I might suggest a Bonus system, where the VIP ranking are used to determine the percentage of the money that are paid back to the gambler, based on their wagered amount.

Example : Bronze - 0.1 % of wagered amount / Silver = 0.2% of wagered amount / Gold = 0.3% of wagered amount.... etc.. etc. because this will incentivize players to increase their rank and to get more from the bonus system.

It all depends on what the casino can afford and how many other bonuses are being offered by the site. 

I say, "Do not cry over spilled Milk" .... just learn from that mistake and push forward with the new knowledge that you acquired. I had many friends who got into the same situation with these Ponzi schemes and even after several warning, still invested money into it.

Then they got burnt and now they are blaming "Bitcoin" as the evil technology.... not the stupidity of them investing in a Ponzi scheme that used Bitcoin as a payment option. (It is important to notice the underlined and bold section of this sentence)

You handled this brilliantly .... you learnt from the mistake... acquired the correct knowledge... and tried again. Well Done!

You know that most secure services like SSL on websites and also services used by the Banking sector and other financial services use RSA Encryption technology ... right?

So why do you think this FUD is only targeted at Bitcoin as a huge threat? I will tell you why, because Bitcoin is a threat to the people who are spreading this FUD... because they want the uniformed slaves of their financial system .... to fear Bitcoin. (even if this is a bunch of lies)

Just get the truth out there... and how we already solved this possible threat, with counter measures.  

Some of the games looks like a "white label" version of the Stake.com original games.... and we are seeing a lot of these copycat sites ..popping up everywhere. I was hoping to see some real originality in those games... but it's just too similar to all the rest. 

Is this a clever method to "sell" a white label version of your casino.... or are you genuinely looking for inputs to improve it? One thing that you might consider adding ... will be a PvP element to all those games. 

Darksorrow (OP) .... you are looking for something that does not exist. The bookmakers and casinos are making sure that they are protecting their interest from professional gamblers. (Punters)

They will start to "restrict" your account ..based on your betting (win) history and then they will block your account.. as soon as they determine that you are a Punter... that is more or less stadard practice for all casinos and/or bookmakers.  

Stake.com and Duelbits.com are quite lenient ... but they will eventually find a way to implement something to restrict you, if you are winning too much.

Well, I am way into 276k bets on Plinko with no 1000x win... so do not think you must hit it soon. Some people seem to think that you should regularly change seed, if you do not hit it within 40k bets, but I tried that.. before this and I just get the same result.

Gone are the days where you kind of had some guarantee that you will hit a 1000x within a maximum of 80k hits.  I have dug the hole so deep now... I just have to continue until I hit it... so that I can recover some of my losses. 

Yes, this was a strange bonus.. and a highly discussed topic in the chat. People are asking why some people got it and what they got it for .. and others did not get it. Well, it turned out that Stake decided to pay out $40 to anyone that made bets for 5 consecutive days in a certain period.... Why they decided on that.. could not be answered.

Now, people are saying it is unfair and that nobody knew about that.. so nobody prepared for it. I say, those who got it were just lucky... and others should learn from that... do some small regular Sport bets and you might be one of the lucky few to get it next time.  

First of all..... Bitcoin is not an investment.

Bitcoin is a technology that can be used as a currency or payment method ...and as a bonus, you can hoard some coin to see if the price goes up.. from where you bought it... and then you can make some passive profit. (The main goal of owning Bitcoin ..is not to make a profit, but rather to use it as a currency)

You might ask... Why do we need an alternative payment option.. or currency? Answer : Because our primary currency are centralized and manipulated by governments and we see how governments fail their citizens all over the world. ((Example : Zimbabwe (Hyper inflation) or the 2008 Banking crisis ..where Banks were bailed out with tax payers money to pay for Bankers mistakes and fraud))

There are definite merit for casinos not to disclose any sensitive information about their operation, if it is not necessary to do so. People can use that information to exploit loopholes in their security or to fake logs to target human flaws. (Support people might accept fake logs or entries and payout claims that are not valid) 

That said.... if there are significant evidence that a casino are wrong, then the casino will have to step up and pay out the claim. (They have that obligation towards their users)

I do not think the motivation for this is to snipe bids, because this will be extremely risky from the operators perspective. There are always people with more money out there, so they stand a huge chance of losing the bid, if a whale snipe their "snipe" bid.

The concept are flawed... as shown by other people on this thread and the idea are poorly executed. You cannot start something like this and then not document all aspects of the rules. 

I do not see the need for those "gambling" tokens... other than some casinos making more money out of the gambling tokens that they developed. Most of these tokens have zero utility, because it cannot be used for anything else... other than using it for gambling.  

If you want to invest in one token that has some utility and trading value, then go with the FUN token that are used on one of the biggest and oldest Crypto casinos, called Freebitco.in.  

Well, it is one thing saying that it might happen.... and a whole other story to convince "full nodes" to accept it. If it does happen... a full fork needs to happen, so you will get the same amount of coins that you had on the legacy addresses. (So in theory .. you will not lose any coins, but the value of the new tokens will be questionable)

I personally think we should only "force" this issue, if some security exploit threatens Legacy addresses. (Super strong technology that might crack the encryption) 

The general pubic does not know the difference between centralized and decentralized... and they simply do not care about that. They care about some government giving the "green" flag on a currency that they can use everywhere. 

We have a huge task to educate people on the difference between the two technologies and what the threat will be to use a centralized technology. 

Well, Elon Musk made sure that he cashed in on the possible shortage that might occur with batteries for electric vehicles, by building that massive factory. "Musk said Tesla would have capacity to produce 100 gigawatt hours of 4680 batteries this year, enough to power about 1.3 million cars, and more than enough to supply production at factories in Texas and Germany." - Source : https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/musks-plan-tesla-built-batteries-has-an-acceleration-challenge-2022-03-11/

So that is Tesla's needs covered... but what about all the other EV manufacturers .... will China produce the rest of those? 

I have not seen or heard about any individual complaint that has been resolved by the intervention of the license authorities. I even doubt if they get involved in those issues. I once saw the curacao license disabled on the Stake.com site, when they ran a weekly lottery.... but Stake took them on and explained that it was not a Lottery... where people bought tickets, but rather a Giveaway...where people earned tickets.

The Stake license was enabled again... and Stake.com grew to one of the biggest Online casinos on the Internet. So good luck, if you have individual problems with a casino. 

First of all.... Welcome to the forum... as you can see, people on here will pull you apart and analyze everything you say or do...to determine if your site are a scam or if it is legit. Do not take it personal, because we have seen several scam sites and some of us stick together to prevent losses to other people, by doing proper research on new services that are offered here. 

I like the fact that you are responding to burning issues that are posted on this thread... and that shows good commitment from your support. Enjoy your stay with us...and Good luck for 2023. 

A massive whale tried this in the early days.... creating a huge "Sell" Wall..... but people stuck together and they slowly chipped away at it.. until it was destroyed. That only happened on one exchange, if I remember correctly ...and things went back to normal within a couple of days.

So the Bitcoin community are pretty resilient when it comes to things like that.... when we are faced with a challenge, we stand together and we ride it out and just continue driving forward.  

Yes.... that is very good advice... but the spirit of Xmas spending is strong with many of us...because we want to compete with the Jones's and want to kill our guilty conscious by buying gifts to people that most probably not deserve it.

I think people should be less worried about gifts and huge meals during Xmas... and just try to spend quality time with friends and family. The commercialization of Xmas is wrong..... and only retailers and businesses profit from that. 

Well with a bigger multi bet.. your odds payment are much bigger... so I bet multiple different selections at the end to cover most of the probable outcomes. I know this will reduce the payout amount, but a win is better than nothing at all....

This strategy did not work very well with the Soccer World Cup, because there were simply too many upsets. I did manage to win some configurations at the end, but that did not make up for all my losses.
