Took a look at the hall of fame page and was surprised to see such a high average shares per block for so many of the miners choosing to stay private while so many miners that are not private seemed to have much lower average shares per block. Did not take the time to average the averages between private and not private or the number of the top25 listed private and not private, but seems odd.

A year ago this month a forum member named doood started a thread for his gambling site bitcointoss. Within a month he changed his forum nickname and also posted that he was no longer supporting the site

Bitcoin Toss - Flip a coin and win double your entry!

"As of now, I am no longer supporting this site"

After the first post below the next three post contain quotes from his original nickname "doood"






A year later bitcointoss and other sites of concern are consuming coins from trusting players. Those that lose may send more coins and try again and those that win wait for there coins to be sent back, but soon find that none are being sent, and then they find many other player with the same story

Attempts have been made to question wat is going on but with little contact information being provided if any on the sites there are very few details to assist in getting any answers.

Still dispensing addresses to anyone that request and still consuming coins from trusting bitcoin patrons

doood aka Alex Beckenham aka STIFF has yet to respond




















The post above shows dooods quotes now showing as "Alex Beckenham" after changing it that day or the day before. Then he states  he is no longer supporting the site. The post below he made two months later and that account hasn't been active since. His sites however are still running and been getting free adverting and support from the forum all year long







Sites like these are not offering enough details or contact information to even consider risking coins. They are stiffing people that are winning coins. How can they be trusted to run a fair game. Have to watch out for -EV prior to ever even gambling.


I'm not quite sure what kind of criteria you are using. Your choices are possible scam or mathematically proven?

For example http://betcoin.eu has been around a while. I imagine maybe the operator got bored and just let it run on it's own. Who knows, maybe he'll be back in this forum again (I think it's been a while since he signed on). But is it a possible scam? It's possible. Likely? Who knows. I guess that get's at my question about the criteria. I know exactly how to make a program that works exactly like http://betcoin.eu but can give fake payouts to me every so often. That doesn't make http://betcoin.eu a scam though. But proven?

i think the same about bitcointoss... sure there's no admin around but i've been paid the two the small bets i've won. seems harsh if there's just some error on the site to call it a scam if the admin's away.


How many more coins must be scammed by this stiff? Let him come speak for himself. As I don't see this happening any post of doood tagged "Alex Beckenham" need to be and should of already been deleted. Every coin that these stiff sites scam players out of are coins that legit sites will never see.

Really impressed with amount of betting option being offered on the site and is by far the best in representing bitcoin sportsbooks. Getting a rating by SBRForum on anonibet would be great for bitcoin. A few days ago a thread mentioning anonibet and BTC both was posted. Felt it could of been better represented

http://forum.sbrforum.com/sportsbooks-industry/1668322-how-use-bitcoin-bet-sports.html

In this thread 2nd post an SBR admin mentions contacting some bitcoin books. Being the most reputable and respected by both sportsbooks and players getting rating would be good for business.

from my post on thebitcoinreview
http://www.thebitcoinreview.com/site.php?site_id=839

Think everyone should be aware of sites that may have been operating and working normally over six months ago but have been left up and running currently in hopes of just taking your coins. This is wat conclusion I came too with bitcointoss.com back in February.

After deciding to try out the site I sent .2 BTC to the address provided by the site. This being a one time usage address since after the flip is won or loss your winnings are sent back to you with an address you provide. Luckily I won my first toss. However after waiting 3 or 4 days I never received my payment.

Thread I started concerning no payment
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=63615.0

Upon looking more closely at the site I see there is no way to contact anyone with problems or issues about the site. No contact info nothing. This should be a BIG red flag to anyone considering gambling coins on any site. So after exploring a little more I find the original post from the author had announced the game the site offered. Also in that thread on the very last page very last post the author announced he was no longer supporting that site.

announcement thread
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6526.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6526.msg147714#msg147714

Said or offered nothing on the first page. Then he uses another page to mention he is no longer going to be on the forum for anybody trying to get in touch with him. So after looking around more I find he is also running btcriches.com, bitcoindouble.com and bitcoinbalance.com btcriches.com also had no contact info no did bitcoindouble. bitcoinbalance however is suppose to be the wallet service for those two sites. It had a single admin email from which I got no response

the thread for anybody trying to contact him
http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=31524

Just feel people should know these sites were setup and running and are still running however any issues arising from these sites which were left running players are unable to get help. Like I said I got lucky I won my first time. No telling how much people have lost and never even knew had they won chances are they would not of been paid. Find it pretty shady. Something else I found to be shady were two sites also from the same author

bitcoinsecurity.com
bitcoinsafety.com

Both with links to bitcointoss on them.

Have tried to contact him, no response from 2 day - I've lost some bitcoins due to bug in his website. If I get reponse I will edit this post.  It's strange, I remember that about 1-2 months ago I've accidently sent 2 deposits to the same address and got the money back after few hours even without contacting him.

Wat site are you refering to that you lost your coins on?

His site bitcointoss got me not long ago. Was not much to speak but enough to become aware of all his sites still up and running taking in coins but not any way to contact directly on any of his sites

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=63615.0

How exactly did you attempt to email him?
