Update: I built this for the Moneypot API as it was when RHavar founded it. Since then, Moneypot is under new ownership and its API has possibly changed. I will not be updating this script. You'll need to know some Javascript to maintain it. I don't offer any technical support.


What is it?

Untitled Dice is a bare-bones bitcoin dice casino built on top of the Moneypot.com gambling API that lets anyone run their own dice site by cloning and modifying this project.

Since Moneypot handles the user accounts, betting, faucet, and chat, Untitled Dice does not need a server of its own. It's fully client-side (just some javascript files), so it can be hosted anywhere including Github.

Features

- Chat box
- Hotkeys
- Faucet
- Provably fair verification
- Serverless: Host it anywhere that hosts html and javascript files
- Free bankroll: Since your users bet against Moneypot's bankroll, you risk no money and the profits are shared between you, Moneypot, and Moneypot's investors. See: https://www.moneypot.com/investment
- 1% house edge

Want to run your own dice site?

1. Clone this project's code (https://github.com/untitled-dice/untitled-dice.github.io) or get the latest stable release here: https://github.com/untitled-dice/untitled-dice.github.io/releases
2. Create an app at Moneypot.com (https://www.moneypot.com/apps/new)
3. Modify the config (most importantly the config.app_id) at the top of the app.js file (https://github.com/untitled-dice/untitled-dice.github.io/blob/2d3b14c7f5fae0c81a810fd62e378f7e63099d44/app.js#L4-L21)
4. Do whatever you want with the code. Rebrand it completely. Change the colors. Improve the code. Make it your own. Just keep an eye on this thread and the github repo to look out for any updates you may want to backport into your clone.

Questions?

Just ask here.

If you need 1-on-1 support, you can find me lurking on MoneyPot's Slack (http://slack.moneypot.com/), username is `dan` just like here. Though note that this is just a hobby project so I can only provide limited support as time allows.

FAQ

Q: My faucet won't work
A: The faucet uses Google ReCaptcha to prevent abuse, so you sign your website up with ReCaptcha here: https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/index.html - Once you register your site there, ReCaptcha will give you a site_key and a site_secret. Your site_key goes into the config at the top of app.js, and your site_secret goes into the "Edit App" page for your app - you will see a field called "Recaptcha Secret".

Q: What commands are available in the chatbox?
A: Only app owners and mods can use commands.

TODO list and things I need to improve:

- Implement auto-better
- Implement an "All Bets" tab
- Let user set client-seed. It defaults to 0 right now.
- [Implemented in v0.0.7] Display timestamps in chat
- [Fixed in v0.0.3] Right now, the chatbox always scrolls to the last message every time someone chats. This is very annoying when you're trying to scroll back to read previous conversation because the chat will keep jerking you to the latest message. I need to fix it so that the chat only scrolls if you are viewing the latest message.

You might want to take a look abit more into moneypot https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1020726.0

All I can explain about this is that if a site is build on top of moneypot then you could be sure that it will be verified by Ryan and his team since the bankroll will be from moneypot itself, so Ryan will make sure if the code has no backdoors or any exploit that might harm moneypot ( You could choose to provide your own bankroll as well )

Seeing how it uses moneypot as a bankroll, is it possible to configure untitled dice to use my local coindaemon? I'm trying to use this with an altcoin, that's why I ask.

Regarding backdoors, I see that Ryan would probably have screened this a bit and it's most likely safe. Thanks for your work!

An app_secret is for apps that run on a server. My script runs in the browser, so you don't need the app_secret (you can just ignore it).

To connect my script with your own Moneypot casino, you just need to set the `app_id` and `redirect_uri` at the top of app.js.

Also, your `redirect_uri` in app.js needs to be one of the redirect_uris you set for your app on Moneypot's "Edit App" page. Need more help?

Added an FAQ section to the first post that answers this question.

I will soon update the script so that it makes it more clear *why* the Faucet is failing.

Let me know if you still have trouble after setting up ReCaptcha, joclixal.

what do you mean with one doesn't need to worry about getting shut down? thanks

thank you for the question because it gives me a chance to add my question. if I would use moneypot investors will all my users need to register and deposit through moneypot?

This is a major step forward for anyone who wants to start their own dice site! It sounds very easy to build and owner do not need to fund his own bankroll. The commissions of moneypot is difficult to understand. If someone can work it out, I think small profits can be made.

I decided that a dice script would be a good start. Everyone is familiar with dice and how dice work. It's also pretty easy to build and, thus, enhance with your own ideas.

I will keep improving the script, listening to feedback, providing support to anyone that wants to use it, and updating it with new features.

I also plan on releasing more scripts like plinko and slots.

I'm always open to feedback, thoughts, ideas, and suggestions!

Exactly. Untitled Dice is 100% client-side which is why you can run it anywhere.

Moneypot's API also supports server-side apps: https://www.moneypot.com/api-docs (see anything related to the "confidential flow")
