You mean that fishbitfish.com is not provably fair?! |

Hello,
I have a (maybe not so) silly question. Do you pay taxes on incomes you receive from this game? What does law states in your country about this matter? And do you need any kind of permission from govenrment to put in place such kind of gambling sites?
Thanks
Yes, we pay the income tax. I hope we don't break the law regulating lotteries, since bitcoin isn't considered as money here (moreover, I am not sure, if this game is gambling - there is no random factor...). But maybe we break some other countries' law... we have to do some more research if the game grow bigger. ;-) |

where is yellow vs blue?
Gone. Every variant we tried (fixed fee, 0 to 100 % fee..) was far less successfull than the red vs green game. |

Ah i don't speak clearly enough i guess, maybe it's my english... 1MyuTJRZUEjLo1RZoZx2XQhuVCMffRjAC7 Blockhain is right... but again: IF this would be my transaction, i should have the adress: 1MyuTJRZUEjLo1RZoZx2XQhuVCMffRjAC7 in my wallet right?  Sorry, i just don't get the point... xD But, game is over... received 3 payouts, so everything is ok. But still confused about that adress which is not in my wallet... maybe i should get deeper into blockchain wisdom!?  Thx and sorry onlinepro! If bitcoins came from this address, then it must be your address. It means that your wallet must know this address and must contain private key for this address (even though you may not explicitly know about this address, since it had been created automatically for you by your wallet). |

I don't think it could ruin the game... why?
I just showed you it could (read my whole explanation to Kuverty). If everybody lose money in both team you are the only one who can win money there (with fees) And in my opinion if you don't do anything it's a problem which makes me hesitate to gamble again on your website.. I think you should consider Kuverty idea of increasing "jackpot" money to avoid this kind of behavior. You won't lose money because everybody would bet more to get it. And it will become very costly to ruin the game. You are right. And you may also suspect that it is the owner of the game who make those strange payments, right? Because the owner is the only one who "wins" in such case. Well, I think the solution could be to introduce absolutely transparent rules of how the fees are transformed to future rounds' jackpots. Now we make it manually (simply: what is left after we pay costs like advertising, goes to jackpot), but we should be more transparent. Give us some time please to think about it. There are more alternatives how to transform fees to jackpots: straight to next round, or with some delay (24 hours?) or with some randomization, etc... It may also be combined with some sponsorship (combine game with faucet...). |

Hi, I have a suggestion / reclamation. My english is not perfect because it's not my mothertongue, so you have to forgive me The possibility to gamble on both fishes should be forbidden. Betting on both side looks like a strange idea right ? But look @ yellowVSblue just right now: Adress "12JPNjfD1QGivFsJZ4S4wdvffYEMjiKAw2" He just gambled on both side so that almost everybody lose money. Maybe he's been frustrated to lose and has chosen to suicide the game.. not very funny and very much antigame.. It Shouldn't happen Or he hasn't understood mathematics.. Maybe.. (Your english is better than mine. ;-)) I don't think it could ruin the game... why? Just imagine him not as one schizophrenic person but as two people sharing one wallet. And, on the contrary, one player may use two or more wallets, so it would be pointless if we made some restrictions. |

It's an interesting concept, but I wouldn't call it "investing in" the fish. It's pure gambling. At any given moment someone with a bigger wallet could "eat" the others easily.
So it's extremely risky to play and with the fees rising the potential profit is minimal as well.
Sure, it's a game ... and games usually use real-world words, like life, death, killing, investing... ;-) You are a little wrong that someone with bigger wallet could eat others "at any given moment" - how can you do it if the fee is 99.99 % at that moment? |

I wish the two games were staggered, so they didn't start and end at the same time. It would be nice when the yellow vs blue ended the other one was half-way done. Just my opinion and something to think about.
We will introduce 6-hour rounds for red-vs-green game soon. So the fee rate will be raising with the same speed in both games (0.002316 % per second), but there will be two red-vs-green rounds finished during one yellow-vs-blue round. |

Hi Kairos,
Can one person invest in the same fish twice? So, if i see i am taking a loss and as per my calculation, i can salvage some of my BTC am i allowed to invest again in the same fish?
Sure. You can send as many payments as you want. |

if anyone is relying on blockchain.info and is getting emotional. ask yourself this:
1. have you donated anything to them, because you rely on them soo much you want to ensure they continue to be reliable?
2. why havnt you donated to them you tight fisted bastards ( joe, i love you all really )
3. why not use another wallet service as backup. you do realise that you can dump privkeys into any wallet and be able to continue as you were. you are not locked into blockchain.info.
4. if you are a business just using blockchain.info. why are you not also using API's of other explorers, as a double checker.
1+2) I use their shared coin service, which is paid. ;-) 3+4) You are absolutely right. |

if your scared, this reveals many things:
1) your relying on an online service for something that causes you emotional distress if lost
2) your relying on an third party for something that causes you emotional distress if lost
3) you cannot be arsed to double check your balance using a different option
i think its time you reviewed your lapse in security. and get a proper bitcoin wallet program....
if anyone else is getting worried about blockchain.info balance issues. then you too should realise that you have obviously more than 'disposable' income stored in a online third party service. and then do something about it
It's not only about personal wallets, it's about businesses using blockchain.info API.  But you are right, it's definitely time to switch to other platform. |

This is not the first time that something is happening like this. The last time, they restored the site in less than 12 hours. So we probably don't have anything to worry right now.
Less than 12 hours? Great... Imagine GMail down for 4 hours... |

Hi everybody when you invest here please calculate wisely. Because this game is like mathematical calculation. So invest wisely and be safe with your money.
Yes, you are right. The calculation is quiet simple, but still it seems that many players don't invest wisely. We plan to display more info on the page that shows how profitable is it to send money with current fee rate... The game isn't supposed to be about some hidden risk. |

Currently blockchain.info service is down, which is the reason why half of the payments of the last round are displayed as "unconfirmed". Don't worry about your deposits, we postpone evaluating the round until blockchain.info is up and running again. Plus, we are going to rework the game, in few days, to use some other platform - blockchain.info seems to be very unreliable. |

Good day, please explain how in the last round Accepted payment on 23-30 which has not yet been acknowledged? c2350d4a20740305b8462e8c4f28a5f9eb4241bb6c2220d15c30505b121cdccf
The last round was not so clear why the transaction is counted at the moment has not been confirmed and if it counted, why not added to the balance?
The explanation is quiet depressing - a bug at blockchain.info. https://blockchain.info/tx/c2350d4a20740305b8462e8c4f28a5f9eb4241bb6c2220d15c30505b121cdccfIt says "0 confirmations" but "Included In Blocks: 303349 (2014-05-30 16:39:47 +4 minutes)" at the same time! If you look at this transaction using some other service, you will see that it has normally confirmed in few minutes: http://blockr.io/tx/info/c2350d4a20740305b8462e8c4f28a5f9eb4241bb6c2220d15c30505b121cdccfHow could something like this happen to blockchain.info? I found out that there was an orphaned block at height 303349, that probably lead to some inconsistencies in blockchain.info database. What do you mean with "why not added to the balance"? It is counted and it is added to the balance. |
