It finally happened! I won the Jackpot of +0.001 !!

I was playing Jackpot to increase my Bonus % and was shocked to see an actual 8888 come up. This is the fourth 8888 I've rolled so far, but the first 3 were non-Jackpot.

Yay! Thanks for the Jackpot! :-)

EDIT:

Well ... I became a little less excited once I realized how much I had spent on Jackpots:

JACKPOT WINNINGS
0.00100000 BTC
SPENT ON JACKPOTS
0.00094412 BTC

Haha!!! At least I'm in the green :-)

Feature Request: Can we see Jackpot Wager included in Profit Loss? Additionally, can we see Jackpot Wager calculated in Profit Gain? For example if I wager 13 satoshi, win 100, profit would be +87, not +100 (calculating the 13 cost of jackpot).

You convincing me to play the jackpots? Because it's working! I like that weighted value - I'll definitely do this.

Coming from a guy who hit the big 8888 three times, 2 times right after I stopped playing the jackpot, and 1 time for free roll and one 10000 on multiply BTC... yea I sure do love dodging the odds, lol!

@Myfe My bonus % is falling as well. However, I always assumed that's because you're encouraging users to keep wagering in order to keep the % up. For example I had 100% bonus, but I fell back a tier. Now it says I'm 79.1% to the next tier. I did some low-volume wagering, like 20-100 satoshi per, and then it went up 0.1%. So I think it may be working as intended. But I am PM'ing you my User ID just in case this is not intended functionality :-)

I am not sure how it's calculated (whether Lost or Wagered)

But here is my stats, I have the full 19x bonus:

MULTIPLY BTC WINNINGS
-0.01353939 BTC

I put in 0.007 BTC, activated the 2x Bonus, lost it all ;-)

A few hundred Satoshi might not be enough to move the needle of the bonus progression. Sorry I don't have an official answer. Just giving my anecdotal data.

Here you go, Myfe! Absolutely loving the added bonus!!! 

My wife rolled 9990 on the free spin yesterday, fetching about 7700 satoshis. She's ecstatic and so happy, thinking she's rich ;-) Anyway, thanks for the site and keeping my wife entertained :-D

Thanks for that clarification, wetsuit! Looks like I'm a part of the ELITE club with my +1615 bonus. I'm gonna pop a Free BTC boost right away! Until now I've been hesitant to touch my RP :-)

Someone likes focusing on the negative, eh? Give them some credit, geez. It's a bit difficult to maintain a site that hundreds of thousands of people use and abuse.

Looks to me they are implementing CloudFlare DDoS protection technology in order to prevent future downtime based on the network requests.

I have a +1500 bonus from the Faucet. Probably because of that one time I deposited 1LTC to get the 2x bonus (and then lost it all, bwahaha)

Really enjoying the bonus, giving others an incentive to play here. I also like how fast single betting is. Other sites have very slow single betting especially if the wager is low.

Today ... I rolled the Free Roll, and got some low number. Then I decided to play one YOLO 45% bet for the fun of it. Won it ... because I rolled 10000 !!! "OMG Why couldn't that roll have been for the Free Roll!?" Yea, I was excited and depressed at the same time !!!

Anyway, the site is down. Likely because of the flood of traffic for the free BTC bonus? Or because you're tweaking the code?

Thank you Myfe/wetsuit for all your work/improvements on this site :-)

I would gladly do this, Myfe/Wetsuit! I could provide the email/username for my wife and I in a PM. We could also share a picture holding a To The Moon! paper or something Just let me know. Wanna play by the rules

This may be true, but there's absolutely no information about this in the site FAQ. This would be a good addition. Of course many people may come up with the "bright" idea of creating multiple accounts as referral of another, obviously an illegitimate use of the site. However there should be a clear black/white explanation of what is/isn't allowed. I think my wife having her own account in the same household is reasonable. However if it clearly explained in the FAQ that there was only 1 account allowed per household. I would understand. That's why I am asking the admins on here so there is no guesswork

FreeBTC moderators,

Is it an issue if my wife creates an account on her computer and plays? We're on same IP but different computers. Just don't want to step on anyone's ToS

Hello there, darkness!

I am not new to crypto. I did purchase BTC (it's in cold storage) back in 2013, and then I forgot about crypto for awhile. It was more a buy-and-hold thing, not worrying if the price goes up or down.

Only recently have I become really involved in it. I purchased some LTC for fun on the day it was released on CoinBase. I used 0.5 of that as a deposit into freebitco using their coin-changing site. (0.5 LTC turned into 0.007 BTC). Then put the rest of the LTC into cold storage.

I first heard of BTC when it was worth pennies - maybe 2011 or before -  because I browsed tech blogs at the time, and people were talking about this new 'digital currency' and I thought it was incredibly silly but awesome at the same time. I wanted to buy some for fun, but back then I was afraid of keeping them secure - didn't know about cold storage back then. I also thought it wouldn't be successful. No regrets! Never too late to invest.

Thanks for the advice of cross-referencing the date based pricing. Should've thought of that!

Hello all! Made an account just to post in this thread. I discovered FreeBTC last week and I've been totally into it.

It's very interesting to read the earliest messages in this thread - how far FreeBTC has come.

Anyway, I put in 0.5LTC as a deposit and proceeded to lose it all over 7 days. No worries, I know the house always wins, and it was great entertainment (I swear there's an anti-8888 script in there somewhere, lol! jk) Now time to somehow work my balance out of the wager requirements

For the creators, thanks for being active in this forum. Are there any fun facts you have about the site? Like biggest win / biggest loss on a single bet? Or how much was the free faucet giving out in the early days for < 9885? Or how often does someone hit 8888? Those would be fun to know.

Take care!
