Left a message promoting our website hope you don't mind, I appreciate if anyone gives it a look.

The only conspiracy is the aim to taint the reputation of bitcoin at any cost. You can destroy bitcoin with propaganda as efficiently as you can destroy the technology it is based on, never underestimate the foolishness of the masses on a large scale, a bitcoin prohibition era fueled by the masses fear whereas people would actually beg the government to protect them from the horrors of bitcoin, even if it makes the lower classes starve and billions are spent on it while the debt is further increased.

"Do you really want your children to have the possibility of using such horrible services as X and Y on the deepnet which are only made possible with BTC? We must protect the children!" - Oh the children, their favorite tactic.

The flaw of bubbling anything is inherent in us humans, if you want a babysitting currency you can go pick one of the dozens. Obviously the economy is going to attract a lot of "businessmen" at the current stage and could potentially harm people, bitcoin demagogues will probably try to portray Satoshi as a villain as a result. It is essentially very similar to 3d gun printing
944  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Max Keiser and the Rise of Bitcoin Demagogues on: April 10, 2013, 12:04:03 PM
Better be a bitcoin demagogue than a political demagogue, it's evolution regardless. I bet Satoshi could predict this happening since the early days.

Problem is that the price of bitcoin rises and many people that have absolutely no idea about bitcoin or computers in general are making "investments" to try and profit off the phenomena.

948  Bitcoin / Project Development / Casinobit Beta - LIVE ROULETTE - No Registration on: April 09, 2013, 07:16:25 PM
Since we are also looking for early adopters that might point out any bugs I think I am going to leave this here.


Ladies and Gentlemen,

After a long wait I present to you the open beta of the completely remodeled Casinobit.net! We are the first casino to introduce live feeds and will most likely be the last, I believe that a live feed offers a level of excitement other RNGs simply cannot deliver, best of all payouts are nearly instant and we offer secure and fair play.

Currently we offer live european roulette as a minigame without registration, simply send in a transaction and receive your payment!

We are also looking forward to hearing the communities suggestions so we may evolve our product further. As of the moment we are going to implement a "hack" which will only send out a transaction notifying of loss when you have included the numbers "777" in your transaction, in the beta this feature is enabled by default at the cost of the house edge in addition to paying generous fees as always Wink.

Please keep in mind that the current version is Beta, thus we ask of you to not kick us please in case your transaction is not processed promptly or not processed at all Smiley, every unprocessed transaction renders an automatic email to an administrator and we aim to eliminate all the bugs as fast as possible, in case your transaction is unpaid you can contact the "unpaid" team from the bottom of the page at "Contact". Early adopters will benefit the most because of the table limits in addition to suffering potential issues.

I woke up this morning and got on sealswithclubs account to discover 3000 chips were missing. After looking at withdrawals there were none. After checking player to player transfers, I noticed my account had sent 3000 chips to KOSH123, WHICH I DID NOT AUTHORIZE. I am now out well over $500 and honestly being 18, I am getting out of bitcoins, selling all I have and telling my story to other people thinking about getting into bitcoins. My friend Kevin had his BTC-e account hacked and changed password and no help from support. He lost .90 BTC himself. LET THIS BE A WARNING FOR ALL THOSE LOOKING TO GET INTO BITCOINS!

Using cookies together with uniquely generated addresses and instant cash-outs would be far superior than letting ANY service bank your coins.

Guess some people just need the equivalent of a babysitting state but in finance.
951  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinobit - LIVE ROULETTE - No Registration on: April 09, 2013, 10:13:39 AM
Pretty cool concept. I'm definitely going to give this a go soon!

Thanks I appreciate the input, I've never understood what is the appeal of having a bot decide whether you should win or loose, I think this hybrid offers you the best out of both worlds, eat the cake and still have it.

I know I have been betting on 10 black or 1LucKPedBpbKF1QR5JPskSEeowm6LapNu9 but that's the benefit of being an employee I guess, free games  Tongue

I am a simple website admin, I am not here to discuss cryptography or any technical related info. I am a messenger between the person above me and the average user, I reply to emails, help resolve account problems etc etc, anyone with enough braincells to comprehend the concept of internal company hierarchy will understand that no one will pay a chief security expert which works with banks (and we have access to those) 150$ an hour to discuss ciphers with 16 year old teenagers that play Minecraft.

It is clear how much competition and dirty promoting exist on these forums since I was met with sticks and stones.

I mean no disrespect but I would rather trust my money to casino 777 than Satoshi or any other "provably fair" casino which will likely loose it's bitcoins as foolishly as Bitcoinia. Those who mind don't matter, those who matter don't mind. If there are any serious entrepreneurs that are ready to invest I can easily arrange an online chat with an expert.

Got it.  Like Tom Smykowski.  He deals with the god damn customers, so the engineers don't have to.  He has people skills, he is good at dealing with people!  Can't you understand that?  What the hell is wrong with you people?

Haha I must admit I did laugh  Grin

You might say, but the site knows their secret! What if they played the game THEMSELVES? They'd knew what PLAYER secret to use to win! But the only point of that is you're SCAMMING THE GAME. However if 10% of the "game" is owned by outside investors, then you can scam them. So yeah, satoshidice can scam their shareholders but not you.

What stops people from paralleling the SHA256 hashing on many ALUs, like GPUs for example and bruteforcing the key?

The fact that doing so will probably take anywhere between 175 and 24395872948732987 years to complete.

Hashing is a wonderful tool that solves all sorts of problems that when solved make a provably fair casino possible.  I invite you to learn as much as you can on the topic.

This makes cracking passwords using good graphical cards very easy. Currently you can check about 310^9 SHA256 hashes per second (src), keep in mind that attacker knows salt and algorithm which you use for hashing passwords. So in one day attacker can bruteforce 310^96060*24 = 2,6 * 10^14 passwords. Assuming that password is chosen completely random from a set A-Za-z0-9 (62 different characters) in one day attacker can bruteforce password with a length of log(2,6 * 10^14) / log(62) = 8.

Still I will pass the idea up top, after we introduce the deposit/withdraw modules and the general bitcoin exchange we can add something like that as a seperate little application below every casino game.
And when a site uses a secret 10 characters in length, your bruteforce suddenly takes 3,844 days.  Watch out if they increase it to 14 characters, then you're looking at 155 million years!

So what makes you think a site like SatoshiDice would use an easy-to-bruteforce 8 character or less secret?  In fact, they use a 64 character secret!  http://satoshidice.com/secretlist.php

Seriously, you are doing a TERRIBLE job with PR for this site.  You come in here like a buffalo in a china shop, aggressively attacking anyone who disagrees with you, with no regard for the fact that THEY MIGHT BE RIGHT!  I would strongly suggest that you step down out of whatever public role you hold with the "company" and have someone else with a much thicker skin and who knows their cryptography step up to do the job.

I want to remind again that Casinobit admin is misleading about 100% payout! Having 2 zeroes on the roulette gives him 5.26% advantage.

The roulette shouldn't even be there at the moment, everything is being remade.

PR/Marketing fail itt

More like competitors trolling me but meh, it's currently in the first testing stages and we don't really care to introduce the bitcoin community to the casino. We care more about introducing people from the gambling community who are new to bitcoin to the casino.
Your game needs to be provably fair before any sane person plays it.

There is no such thing. We could show that the game on the main page probably provably fair like Satoshi. The rest of casinos are BSing about provable fairness, we might as well MD5 hash the current millisecond and provide the string to the user as "evidence".
I'm not sure how you think the rest of the casinos are BSing about provable fairness. THEY ARE NOT. SIMPLE EXAMPLE:

Lucky Number ranges from 1 to 100. If it's less than 50, you win 2x!

SITE has a secret. Say "foo". Now if they tell the secret, then people can calculate the lucky number. So they HASH it with something like SHA256 and tell you that.

YOU has a secret too. Say "bar". You give the secret to SITE. Now site will know your lucky number since they combine your secret, with their secret. However they cannot change their secret now since they already gave you the hash.

Now do you understand it?

You might say, but the site knows their secret! What if they played the game THEMSELVES? They'd knew what PLAYER secret to use to win! But the only point of that is you're SCAMMING THE GAME. However if 10% of the "game" is owned by outside investors, then you can scam them. So yeah, satoshidice can scam their shareholders but not you.

Your game needs to be provably fair before any sane person plays it.

The rest of casinos are BSing about provable fairness.

What do you mean by that?  Is it that you don't understand how provable fairness works, or have you found some way the sites can cheat despite their so-called provable fairness?  If so, could you please point out how?

How do you propose provable fairness will be implemented in Texas Holdem except using mental poker?

I actually hoped you would swallow your pride there and admit that I was right for a second, especially considering you decided to delete your own post. Which further accused us of trying to scam.

I like you all guys regardless and appreciate the feedback  Wink

I'll give it to you as requested!

The post I deleted was based on the assumption that you didn't understand how hashing works (you admit this in the context of password security) and was an attempt to explain it.  The reason I deleted it was that I came to understand that your point might have been that the secret list would permit the business to defraud its shareholders, not so much the business to defraud bettors.  I don't know that to be certain, but felt it was prudent to give you the benefit of the doubt.

I don't think I ever accused you of trying to scam - rather, my contention was that you didn't appear to have the requisite security knowledge to run a bitcoin casino and handle other people's money, and appeared to be taking an attitude not of trying to learn it, but boldly dismissing it with overconfidence.

When you are confronted with someone engaging you on a security-related topic,

Quote
I swear it's like people keep repeating what others said instead of thinking for themselves.

isn't an appropriate response.  The correct response is to either alleviate the concern, or address it on its own merits, without reference to people "not thinking for themselves".  In this case, the correct response would be "Including the transaction ID in the hash protects the bettors but doesn't solve the problem that leaves the shareholders vulnerable to insider fraud."

It's really not a matter of pride for me: I'll be proud of you if you bring a stable secure trusted casino to the Bitcoin world with a willingness to learn whatever you need to do to build the best business you can.

I am not into building businesses at the moment though. It was never my intention to claim that I have enough security knowledge to run a bitcoin casino, even if I was the owner, I didn't study for it and you need professional people who actually work in network security as a fulltime job. You have to be surrounded with great people for any business to succeed and a bitcoin casino isn't an exception.


The game on the main page doesn't require registration, you can send an amount and receive back at your address. The captcha is meant to be that way and the email is for opening support tickets on the site, if we value our customers anonimity it doesn't mean that we never contact our players. It isn't at all like anything, it gives you a sense of community and brings people together, a whole new experience.

And we do not have support for the color blind at the moment sorry  Wink
Dooglas is the man when it comes to testing gambling sites. It doesn't look good to write him off as color blind when he is just trying to give you advice. You would think knowing that someone who potentially would play your games is having trouble would make you want to change it so the max amount of customers can play.

I wasn't trying to be mean to Dooglas or make him feel uncomfortable, just addressing the issue with some humor. It did seem like he was "taking the piss" so to say.
960  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinobit - no house edge, 100% payout on: December 10, 2012, 02:52:15 PM
just a note, if you're veryfying the password length, I can assume that you're storing the passwords in the database as plain text.

Man, it's a high security flaw, passwords in a database MUST be hashed and salted. I'malmost sure you don't know what I'm talking about, so take a time to learn more about it, and you should start reading here:

http://blog.moertel.com/articles/2006/12/15/never-store-passwords-in-a-database

and also see this site:

http://plaintextoffenders.com/about/

Are you kidding me?

Ok, I admit that I was kinda stupid in my last post, I just learned about hash passwords, but this doesn't mean that no one else knows about it. So, my questions is, if you're hashing the passwords why are you concerned about the password length?

and here I couldn't run it in firefox also, only in chrome.



In case someone would bruteforce the hash it wouldn't be too fast to find the password and the maximum password length is just there so people won't forget their 35 character passwords. Of course it is also salted so even if someone would get access to the database it would still be impossible for him to access the accounts, the bitcoins themselves are stored at a remote server which accesses the website anonymously.

Site keeps crashing. No other site does this, so it isn't my side.
Will this be fixed? Or it doesn't work in Firefox?

People are trying to hack it, there have been a lot of attempts so far, I personally encourage every attempt since it would be better to get hacked early on than later.

since they know the secret list ahead of time.
You are wrong again! It is impossible for the SatoshiDice to know a Transaction ID ahead of time.

Secret list! List! Not the transaction ID.

I swear it's like people keep repeating what others said instead of thinking for themselves.

This is troubling.  I'm not much of a gambler, and haven't ever played SatoshiDice, but someone bringing a casino to the Bitcoin community is really not doing their homework to not understand how SatoshiDice's hashing works and why knowing the secret list ahead of time isn't a problem if it's being hashed with the transaction ID.  The algorithm is too simple for someone willing to build a casino website to not understand, and the overconfident attitude is highly misplaced.  Sorry, but I must apply my stamp of disapproval to this one.

Just to make it clear, I have no interest in anything gambling-related whatsoever.

I actually hoped you would swallow your pride there and admit that I was right for a second, especially considering you decided to delete your own post. Which further accused us of trying to scam.

I like you all guys regardless and appreciate the feedback  Wink
