I appreciate the very quick responses. I take back my unverified statements. I was unaware that the Bitcoin Dice site existed. Thank you guys for the clarification.
But this opens up another can of worms, I'm not sure how I feel about the owner of a site gambling large amounts against his own site with a 50% kickback. It seems like he's a pretty big loser on other sites, but a huge winner overall and all because of his site. Not saying he is doing anything wrong, but it doesn't give off the best perception to investors that the guy who wrote the code is betting against it and winning huge somehow. I will research and think about this some more.
As an investor, you shouldn't care whether an app owner is wagering or not -- it's the exact same scenario to you. Whether it's a random person betting 1 BTC or an app owner, you have the same exact chance to both lose and win that 1 BTC (as a whole, in the BR). Nothing changes for you.

My "coding" is available for everyone's use and it simply utilizes the moneypot simple dice api. My reckless wagering is against the moneypot bankroll. My winnings or losses are mine to sorrow in or rejoice.

first of all this app owner and player is not a winner if you check his history of last year. that he will win sometimes is very normal all app owners are wagering on their own sites and investors are profiting from this. do you want to stop the owners from wagering on their own sites? MP is provably fair and we all are glad about it what is needed is Patience and trust I never said I had a problem with an owner betting on their own site. I said I would think about it. My gut feeling is that I have no problem with it. But I want to do a little research myself. The user helpmywallet is clearly up according to his public betting history. I don't know why you are saying otherwise, unless there is something I am missing. https://www.moneypot.com/users/helpmywalletWhat helps build trust is everyone's quick responses and clear explanations of what happened. As an investor I appreciate that very much.

Well I was -35 and now I'm positive 32 on Bitcoin Dice. So realistically I've made ~67 over the past few days. On Betterbets.io I'm -9 and -1.5 on a different site. Total earnings on and off moneypot this week is around 100 The plan is to slow down and shoot for $1500/ day.

As an investor I appreciate that very much. just read my postings again. I clearly stated that I know this fine player and app owner way back for a year the link you gave shows only his stats starting from the day of the take over of the new MP team so you are missing the months before take over and every investor should always do his DD no question about that we as an app owner are glad to see players like helpmywallet winning and again best of luck for him

Am i missing something or does that mean that if he losses it only costs him 50%? But winning would give him 100%, wouldnt that statistically shift the 49-51% to something like 25-75%,
Betting 10 btc could earn him almost 10btc while losing would cost about 5 right? and that with a win chance of almost 50%

wrong he gets 50% of the HE of his wager he wins 10 BTC or loses 10 BTC Maybe i shouldn't have put the 25-75% up because that brings confusion about the edge, But when he loses he gets back 50%btc, when you would do the calculations that would mean he would have to lose way longer or more than he needs to win. How does that not give an edge? That means losing costs him 50% right? while winning gives him 100% So please reread again as you are saying the same thing..... Or to make it clear for me so i understand better, if he would bet 10btc and lose them, how much would he receive back?

The app owner will get 50% of the house edge and not 50% of the bet amount, those two are different. A 1btc bet in 1% house edge dice will give the app owner .005btc as commission no matter if the bet losses or wins

The house always has an edge. In helpmywallet's case, his site has a 1.5% house edge. Say he wagers 10 BTC and wins, he gains 10 BTC + 10*(1.5%/2), or 10.075 BTC. In the event he loses, he is down 10 BTC - 10*(1.5%/2), or 9.925 BTC. Congrats on the big wins helpmywallet

Ow so what i was missing was that the app owners profit is not variable wich means he doesnt get more or less based on if someone losses or wins right? then i can follow again, thanks JPR and BBHex
