[WTS] 64blocks.com Bitcoin Gambling Website 15 BTC

[Dabs]

*edit* Price: 15 BTC

Hi,

64blocks.com for sale. Includes domain, source code, hosting (or you can change hosting provider), and bitcoin wallets.

Reason for selling:
I don't have the time and/or extra help to continue serving this site anymore, and I will be going on a "sabbatical" to study some other stuff "more formally".

Specifically, I have begun a path towards certification for my MCSA / MCSE (Microsoft) and CCNA/CCNP/CCIE (Cisco). So I'll need the money to pay for exams/books/small private lab. Originally, I was thinking of asking for donations, but then I thought I might as well just sell my site.

My partner (bitclever) and developer (ZypheronBits) also want on to move to other projects.

The site and domain have been around for more than a year, and it is mildly successful (as a site), but marketing and promotion has been low or non-existent. I believe the site can do much better if marketed well.

I began the site as a different kind of dice site. Sort of more "social". Anyway, go and see for yourself if you haven't.

On going dues are domain (pay $10 a year or something, depending on your registrar, you can transfer it) and VPS hosting (about $50 per month), which you can pay monthly or annually, or switch to a hosting provider of your choice.

All deposits go to cold wallets, then a portion is sent to the hot wallet for small withdrawals.

I am looking to get 15 BTC for the whole thing (I split the sale with my partner and developer) but will entertain reasonable offers.

Current stats:

Total Invested (Real)    6.21395667
Total Invested (Margin)    45.59881372
Games Played    630097 Games
Total Bet    173.31628618
Total Won    170.41168554
House Profit    2.90460065
House Profit (%)    1.67589597 %

To the buyer of the site, I will leave my personal investment in it.

Thank you for considering.

how much monthly profit it makes, because its important to count how much time it will take to get ROI for buyer.

It's making just enough to cover it's own costs, maybe a little less. If the buyer markets and advertises it, or puts out promotions, it may make more. Just look at the other top dice sites.

I simply won't have the time to manage this.

Anyone? No one?

Hey Dabs,

The site is great, but it's a little pricey considering what a new site would cost with an existing (but different) gambling script. I understand though your site is unique and you're also selling your community and the hard work you put into it, so I understand the price. I had the same issue when I wanted to sell my earlier blackjack site. What I would suggest is to sell the code as a script package, cleanse the database, sign it, and sell it for 1-2 btc to multiple parties as a "bitcoin keno" script.


Also, glad to see you're going for the certs! (Consider vmware, netapp, and cisco datacenter too down the line). Let me know if you need any resources, I might have some things you might find useful.

Hey cloverme,

Thanks. But I think I'll just lower the price as time goes on until one person or entity decides to buy it. It will be worth more to one person than to have 20~30 different people come up with 20~30 different clones of the site. I also understand that any decent good coder could just look at the site and clone it for a lower price. (Lots of "traditional" bitcoin dice sites look and act the same.)

With that said, 25 BTC anyone?

Updated OP.

cloverme's suggestion is great. maybe a lot of users will create their own while you have the option not to abandon yours as well.
Good luck with the certification, Juniper is becoming better than CISCO though, companies hate proprietary network protocols of CISCO.

The currents stats are referred to one month/ one years of play in the game?
There is an user account here on the forum linked to your site that you can sell also?

I dunno about that suggestion. We'll have to think about that one. As for Cisco and Juniper and Avaya and Ubiquiti and everyone else, most employers look at Cisco as the standard, even if they do not have any actual Cisco equipment. Market share. If I have a Cisco cert, I can probably get a job at a Juniper company. The other way around, not so much, it's a maybe.

I believe the point is to get past the HR filter; that's another topic.

Hello,

What were the costs for development initially? Can you send me a full detail of the numbers of the site? Gross and net profit and also expenses in detail.

If I like them I am ready to offer you.

It cost me a little bit more than I'm asking for right now (due to bitcoin's volatility and exchange rates then), but let me go look at my numbers from last year and post here.

Can I have a USD value of the site in development? Sure, please let me know. I am really interested in a nice gambling site so hopefully this can be the case.

Still trying to get an exact figure (I tossed them away some time ago, really, so this might be impossible to get an exact number for you, sorry), but I did have to take out a loan from a bank (fiat bank), bought BTC, and spent most of it on the site. It was close to $25k as I got about 40~45 BTC last year, when the price of BTC was about $600 USD. Then the price of bitcoin dropped to $300 while I was paying my developer (in bitcoin). And now the price is back to $400.

I'm still paying that loan, but that's not something you should worry about. That's between me and the bank, they don't know I used their money to buy BTC, hehe.

I forgot to add, I also had to get a SSL cert, but that's only another $5 a year.

For hosting, you just need any VPS that can hold the entire blockchain of 60 gigs. + a few hundred megs for everything else. (Make sure to plan for growth of the blockchain.) So it can cost anywhere from $30 USD to $50 USD per month from most of the providers I've seen. You can always upgrade to a dedicated or game server if the site becomes bigger.

I think this is a nice gambling site. Someone else just needs to take over it from me, do some promotions, work with the old dev or hire a new dev (I think I paid $15~$20 USD per hour or something.)

*edit* when I transfer the site to you, we will not be including the blockchain for the onsite wallet. That means your host will run a full node from zero, and download the entire blockchain for several hours. There are a few minor things, but that's easily worked out.

You'll also want to make a new wallet that only you control, as I'm using a custom script that gets fed a bunch of bitcoin addresses I generated for the site, while I'm the only that holds the private keys. I'll give that to you as well (the site currently holds only 5~6 BTC, some investors used the "margin" feature to increase their "share".)

How much can I earn with this site?

[Dabs]

How much can I earn with this site?

That really depends on how much you invest into it, in terms of marketing, and how much people play (deposit).

I can't answer that question except to say you can earn from this if you have the time to manage it. I simply can't right now. I'd rather see this go to someone who can take care of it.
