Yet another martingale bot for SatoshiDice (Java app)

[Come-from-Beyond]

Is the bot supposed to run continuously? After a loss the bot doesn't do anything. It also only submits a second bet if there's a win. I have 5 BTC in my wallet so that might be to low?

It's supposed to run continuously. But sometimes, especially when a new block is found, Satoshi's client doesn't respond. Perhaps it's a bug in my bot, but there are only a few lines of code and most of times the bot sends hundreds bets before it stops, so I suspect that something wrong in the client. Also the bot is supposed to be launched with a fresh wallet with 1 account only.

Check that username, password and url are correct.

almost everything lost?

[Come-from-Beyond]

almost everything lost?

Me? No. Won 50 BTC during last 2 days playing without bot, but got bored. I'm waiting for a gambling game with co-operative gameplay, it's in betatesting stage now.

Here is my preset for this bot. Works much better than mining. About 0.5 BTC per hour with minimal risk. 

java -cp MartinBot.jar MartinBot http://127.0.0.1:9876 LOGIN PASSWORD 1dice8EMZmqKvrGE4Qc9bUFf9PX3xaYDp 0.003 3.3

I decided to try ur tactics: more losses in a row, higher a reward at the end. As a result I won more than 100 BTC after a couple of hours. Thx for the idea.

you must be rich now!

you must be rich now! 

Aye!
Unfortunately, SatoshiDice has hard limit of 250 BTC per bet, so I can't become insanely rich...

Hi,

i tryed your bot. But i keep getting the error

connection refused: connect

i made a config file with

server=1
rpcport=9876
user=(not going to tell)
password=(not going to tell)
allowip=127.0.0.1

but it will not allow me to use the java bot.. Tryed to disable antivirus and firewall and still not working..


Although i can read the RPC part with another program.. (can get balance in php script)

EDIT:

or is it possible because my wallet is password protected?

EDIT2

tryed with an blockchain.info wallet

getting nullpointer exception (download the 2nd post .java file)

[Come-from-Beyond]

i made a config file with

server=1
rpcport=9876
user=(not going to tell)
password=(not going to tell)
allowip=127.0.0.1

Try to use command line parameters, not config file. Something like

Code:

bitcoin-qt.exe -server -rpcport=9876 -rpcuser=(not going to tell) -rpcpassword=(not going to tell) -rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

or is it possible because my wallet is password protected?

Never tried with password protected wallet.

tryed with an blockchain.info wallet

MartinBot was designed to be used with Satoshi's client.

hello thanks for your help

what is the satoshi's client? Does that have RPC interface?

EDIT:

we are getting somewhere .  With a bat script with the commands you suggested

Error writing to server

Any fix for that?

EDIT2:

didn't realize, the "error writing to server" only occurs when i use the static IP for my pc (***.***.*.14)

when i use 127.0.0.1 its still http error 500  (the standard no acces error)

It can be downloaded from http://bitcoin.org/. It does have JSON-RPC interface.

Usually, I see this error if I try to spend more BTC than I have confirmed in a wallet. Satoshi's client gives very little info about errors, so it's hard to catch a bug.

You probarly haven't seen my previous martingale work (developped my own strategy on a lower bet %) My balance is way over 300 btc at the moment, so a 0.01 bet should be possible .


EDIT:

can't find satoshi's client on bitcoin.org. Only bitcoin-qt *what i use now* multibit, armory, electrum (and bitcoin wallet for android)

NOTE: I don't think this is designed to be used by people with 10btc or less, I had 5btc and lost all of them

[Come-from-Beyond]

It was designed when min bet was 0.001 BTC. Now it's 0.01 BTC.

The less you have, the more likely you are to lose everything. However, if you lose everything, you lose less. There's no such thing as a free lunch.
