I think the real tragedy of the lack of communication is that, if we had some guarantee the site would remain solvent and active, some of the inconveniences could be forgiven, but right now cautious minds need to treat everyday like its the sites last day.
they would make so much more money by simply saying, the site will remain up and we'll renew the domain.
The silence is deafening.

Don't forget that the ultimate deadline unless they renew the domain is October 10th to get everything out.

That's not good! Internal Server Error on login. https://imgur.com/Qegj7X5I hope this changes by tomorrow. If this is the end, glad most of my assets are off.

I hate to give up the extra percentage, however, with the site looking like no one is at the wheel it may be the prudent thing to do to cash out my FUN into BTC. Not a fun decision with a fully aged account.

Counters that are either inactive or invisible for a few hours:
Daily Jackpot + Weekly Lottery + Promo of Lambo from free rolls
Pardon me, You are correct. I checked my concurrent days with premium benefit and they have been reset. That said I'm still getting my benefit according to the site. *shrugs*

|

Suddenly, i have less ~6000 fun locked. Also in PREMIUM MEMBERSHIP BENEFIT DETAILS (i am premium user), it appears: BENEFITS IN 0 DAYS WOF/DAY CASHBACK INTEREST 0 0% 0%
Still fine on mine.

I've tried to look into the address from which my BTC withdrawal came, but seems they use a router or some sort of service, and i didn't have too much time to dig into it deep. However, if you want, i can paste the TXID for someone to dig deeper
their hot wallet is different from your personal address. It also a different generation of address. Their newest hot wallet is at least a seg wit address..

~ I then withdrew the FUN token but have not gotten any email or the fund. I saw that selling the token and withdrawing BTC is working but I can’t even do that at this point.
You have nothing to do now except waiting for them to start processing the FUN token withdrawals. You can keep your eyes on the FUN token hot wallet address of Freebitco. They had processed the last FUN token withdrawal 19 days ago. Perhaps, a part of Freebitco team is on vacation for Christmas and New Year celebration. I guess they will start processing the withdrawals after the 10th January of 2025. I see that you have freebitco.in FUN address. Do you by any chance have their BTC address too? It would probably be a good idea to check the status of the funds there just in case to see are they near bankruptcy and if there are any movement of funds from/to their cold wallet. Their wallets used to be visible on OXT.ME and a few other services. However, these services were taken down when samurai wallet was taken down.

I don't know your situation, but truly, a few hundred dollars can allow you to stake some coins, or arbitrage trade and gain some momentum that will snow ball.
If you're not in the US and you are ok with custodial services you can make a percentage with your holdings on the side.

Re iterating what's been said.
The most reliable way to get your FUN off the site is to cash it into BTC and withdraw.
BTC withdrawals as of today are doing fine.
If you have an issue withdrawing something with the site please specify FUN or BTC.

What your doing is called bating. It's a tactic. I wasn't put on this earth to appease you. ignore me if you will.
I've given you as much information as I'm willing to give you, a stranger, in the interest of helping you and others make informed choices. take it or leave it.
Feel free to spread it as well. But in the post we're referencing, I said I wouldn't mention it again.
it's back to the basics.
I'll quote the bible. "Let those with ears hear."
good day.

An account like that can beg for merit, and even break other forum rules, the worst thing that can happen to the account is that, it possibly will get banned if many other users report it, but when it comes to negative trusts, it's no problem to whom ever is behind that account, you giving the Negative trust will only be wasting your time, or maybe not if you have alot of it 😁 The user sent me a private message and tried to explain to me what he thinks about freebitco. and how he is trying to help people. But he did not mention why he asked for merits and what he would do with the merits since his account was already ruined. The user also said sorry if he did wrong but as you can see, he started to criticize me here because of my post. It is a good thing that he removed Freebitco.in his signature from his profile, which means my post worked, actually. I am going to put him on ignore because most of his explanations do not make sense. It seems like he is a troll. If he continues, sooner or later he will be banned. Have ever watched a narcissist in action. This is what it looks like. I didn't have to say anything to this person. But I decided to reach out. I'm not asking for information or bating them into an opportunity. It's clear they are VERY full of themselves. Instead of listening to reason and talking things out like normal people do. They have decided to ignore me. Clearly they are the troll. If someone says something untrue about me or my intentions I will criticize them back. This user is acting like I can weaponize merits in some way. Look at my post history, I haven't been some hate filled upstart. I'm not sure if their tech literacy is lacking, or if they don't understand what I'm saying. I want everyone on this forum to do well in the crypto and Bitcoin space. That's the bottom line. Judging by this users response, I doubt their intentions. Clearly, even when they get what they want! it's never enough. Text book narcissism. I'll cease interacting with them as clearly they have some weird goal.

One thing I don't like about Bitcoin talk is that I've only ever tried to be a positive force. And my payment for that has been, negative marks, anger, distrust, threats to this account.
I don't understand as within the Bitcoin space as a whole I've only ever acted altruistically.
But hey, use the ban hammer against the person who is providing information about the site that few other people actually knew using my IT skills or helping to verify other peoples posts.
Yes I'm the bad egg. I'm the boogie man. All for trying to help.
I guess the lesson here is, if you try to help, the hero members will assume your a bad actor and try to bury your account.
I truly don't get it.

If you found this helpful once again consider giving merit.
I can clarify a little more over PM but I won't repeat this.
P.S. I sold some staked FUN and Processed a withdrawal no problem just now.
I don't know what to take from your post. I can see you have three negative feedbacks already. I thought I would leave you another one because you asked for merit and promoting Freebitco.in in your signature, knowing they have some problem with their website. Moreover, it seems you are still promoting them by saying you had your withdrawal completed without any problem but did not bothe tor submit a screenshot. FYI, Asking for merit is frowned upon. You will be tagged as a merit bigger. I don't think you will get any benefit by getting merits anymore since you already received three negative feedback. Moreover, please remove your shitty signature! Why are people so bitter on this forum. All i've EVER done is help people and I get negative marks. You don't know me and I don't have to use my expertise to help in my free time. But I do, because real peoples resources are involved who don't even frequent this forum. I said in my post PM me and i'll explain. Clearly you can't read. And all I get are ignorant posts like yours making the problem worse. I have negative ticks because I was asking for help and didn't "know the rules". OR, we could listen to the accounts of people with 2 posts, because they have better information and don't have any self interest? I didn't know asking for merit was bad. Get a life, and stop being such a negative actor. Use that energy to help people like i'm attempting too. I just edited them out of my posts, is that good.....or are you still going to pounce on my posts? How far is this wasted judgement and energy going to go?

I have news.
I'll say this once. Read between the lines. I'm going to be vague.
If you are a Bitcoin investor using Freebitco, attempting to pay your taxes and make a profit. Continue or don't as you see fit and double check the domain renewal for when the site might go down. Do your due diligence.
Anyone else, God help you.
The first phase of the project as we knew it is done.
I'll continue participating in this part of the forum giving the status of features I use. But I believe some of my hunches are correct and for me the mystery is over.
I can clarify a little more over PM but I won't repeat this.
P.S. I sold some staked FUN and Processed a withdrawal no problem just now.

1.) Reminding everyone that the renewal of the domain is a big part of determining if anyone is behind the wheel.
2.) As far as the "Hacks" are concerned. The attacks were a creative use of client side phishing tactics combined with bad security measures. Possibly even key logging.
A reminder: Assume you are being key logged all the time. 2FA (Second factor authentication) is a way to avoid a brute force/ password/ dictionary attack (and more).
Basically the attackers were betting that the client didn't have 2FA enabled and that the client would then turn it on. By turning 2FA on, the email asking if you want to withdraw is no longer sent. Basically as you attach the 2FA, the hackers are brute forcing your account either by cookie, password, or other means in order to withdraw your BTC. You provide them the window under the guise of Freebit.co.
It is always advised to have a strong password and enable 2FA upon the start of any Crypto related account.
Hope this helps put that into perspective.

Can someone in the know explain the account hacks on Freebitco? That's one of the things i'm still fuzzy on.

I like that other options are being mentioned here that people can check out, but don't forget that many of us are americans and the SEC has not been friendly to interest generating sites. Blackjack.fun does not service Americans and seems to have a KYC check. This means they will verify where we are on the back end.
I was checking the DNS records of freebitco.in
The last time the site was renewed was in 2020, IF it gets renewed, there is a chance it would be renewed for years.
(Putting on my chaos hat) What would be hilarious is if one of us found a way to renew it for fun XD XD XD.
