Betterbets V2 (2017-01-22) #updates:

1- The entire old codebase was refactored into a properly modularized, namespaced and object-oriented codebase running on a proven micro-framework;
2- Every access point is now a proper route which is centrally access controlled; the application does not contain any hardcoded URLs anymore;
3- HTML output is produced through a modern, sandboxed template engine;
4- The original database design was properly normalized but almost all read operations still operate using a single query;
5- #4 means that new coins can be added without changing code;
6- The old database code was refactored to use a modern ORM layer;
7- Previously hacky remote call code was re-implemented using a modern RPC library;
8- The resulting codebase is E_ALL clean and much easier to understand, maintain and extend;
9- Support for luck-forging, raffle tickets and bet-mining was removed;
10- Several long-standing bugs and oddities were fixed both on the front- and back-end.


***We have extensively tested the site and believe that it's solid but as this is essentially a brand-new site/codebase, please let us know if something breaks. We will be monitoring things closely over the next few days, but we appreciate your understanding during this 'startup' phase.

Remember, Remember The 15th Of December:

All players who bet over 5 BTC volume should see an NXT credit of 3400 NXT.

Shapeshift is very simple as well to deposit NXT into your account, give it a try

Nice update. I am not sure if you updated the provably fair implementation now or already before, but I just had a proper look again. The implementation looks now very close to perfect I happily activated your site on my site again. There are still some smaller things that could be fixed:

1. Changing the client seed manually doesn't actually work (but "generate new" button does work.) So needs some change event listener that puts the new clientseed in the JS var and localstorage.

2. Ideally the function verifyRoll() will also check the HASH which is the first part of verifying a result. So something like this:

Code:

    if (activeCoin == 'btc') {
        if (sha256(vSecret+'|'+vSalt) != vServerSeed) alert('Oh noes - serverseed hash changed! Contact site owner to see what happened or manually verify your bet.');
        return (Math.floor((100 / Math.pow(2, 32) * ((vSecret + vClientSeed) % Math.pow(2, 32))) * 100) / 100).toFixed(2);
    }

Obviously that alert should never happen though

3. If you use the above code, you would be checking the hash that you got after the bet. But you should check the hash that you saved before the bet (just for the theoretical situation where MP tries to cheat by changing the hash too.) You put this serverseed(=hash) already in the box with insertProvablyFairHtml() before the bet. So you can simply remove the following line from updateProvablyFairHtml() to ensure you verify the hash that you got before the bet:

Code:

// $('#newBetServerSeed').html(response['serverSeed']).hide().fadeIn(delay);

4. It says "Next Bet" in the second box, but that is actually the "Previous bet"



Still I believe your provably fair implementation is now superior to almost all "per-roll implementations", so these are just smaller things that should be easy to fix





PS, I only tested Dice-BTC. Perhaps I can look at Plinko and NXT some other time if you want.

Thank you, will fix ...

Will also add (thank you!)

Silly me :-)

That is high praise coming from you, appreciate it. I'll fix the above issues sometime today; very much appreciate your feedback.

PS, I only tested Dice-BTC. Perhaps I can look at Plinko and NXT some other time if you want.

Plinko isn't implemented in the verifier yet because it uses a different algorithm to determine the final slot the ball falls into (it still uses the hash/seed and everything else, but it doesn't just compute it down to a single number using a single-calculation algorithm). I just didn't get around to implementing this.

NXT uses a different system to compute the roll result (taken from primedice) but now that you mention it, we could actually unify the logic for both coins, there's no real reason to have 2 algorithms in place. I will work on unifying the code so that both/all coins are treated identically.

Once again, thanks a lot for your feedback. I'll let you know when these changes are done.

Welp...apparently the NXT desktop default passphrase isn't the actual passphrase for your account. Thanks for the 3400 NXT anyway guys

I know, but the first account you setup on desktop NXT isn't the one that it logs into apparently *shrugs*

That issue never happened to me. Try to contact Nxt helpdesk on slack https://nxtchat.herokuapp.com

edit: check if is something related to a typo or caps.

Email me bjorn@betterbets.io or PM me on Janus slack user bjorn_bb ( https://nxtchat.slack.com/messages/janusproject/details/ )and I will assist you with this 3400 NXT, these were intended to be a nice gesture from our team that I'd rather you not miss out on.

I think it is a good idea to spoil your users including myself, thank you for your information

There's something wrong with dice. No matter how much profit I made, the balance doesn't go up.

Thank you

We have tested things extensively over the past few days and everything checks out. If you still believe this to be an issue, send me your username in a PM and I'll take a look.

I've checked your stats and everything seems to be in good order. You have placed 24 bets on our site, all of which were properly accounted for. I can find nothing wrong with the way our site works, your balance was properly tracked through every bet. You ended with a balance 5 Satoshi higher than when you started.

The new V2 is awesome, really good job. Betting is way faster than before.

Just some minor chat bugs still to be fixed ( symbols like ' result in weird things lol) but nothing serious.
