How much does it cost to create a btc gambling site?

[barbara44]

If you're calculate using bitcoin rate , surely it cose more expensive rather fiat.
AFAIK , if you want to make good site , you need BTC 50 or if you want to buy dice script site, their price relative lower ( about BTC 1 )

Yes, right but I always wonder whether buying a script is a nice idea or not because yes its low priced and already ready but it might have hidden bugs which our team being new might not find and added to this users always like new and stylish scripts rather than a particular one.

I don't know how much it will cost but I'm sure that it would cost a lot because, starting a gambling site is not a joke. It would take a lot of bitcoin and time to make one. You are going to hire someone who knows how to make one and you are going to pay him of course plus the bitcoin that you are going to use in your gambling site balance as the payment for the users. It is really a complicated one to start, it's not that easy to persuade people to do gambling in your site let's say you already have one.

Its  not  really complicated   as  long you do have the  money  to  put on  when  you really want to build a gambling site  , you  must think  the   things that  to be considered first  when   you  build  one.  100 bitcoin  is already  enough to  build  in  my opinion. Building the  website, bank roll funds,  your workers,  and the marketting  stuff.

I think we must have capital around 2000BTC it will be enough because we need much money for promotion the website outside need much time up to website become popular and many users on there, we could learned from the website of gambling had been run on here, they been running out large capital just for making promotion.

2000 BTC? It is roughly $1.5 million! Do you want to compete for the title of the best bitcoin gambling site in existence or something?
I guess you can achieve anything you dream of (at least script wise) while investing a much less. The sky is the limit here.
More money = better service, but if you are not building 'next big thing' you can settle with couple BTC as your total budget.

At first you need if you wanna to make your website atractive to others, or make just a clean casino, with that said i do believe you can make a casino with 10-20 bitcoins, as you will need some extra bitcoins to handle rewards and jackpots, something around 40-50 bitcoins to handle casino and big wins should be enought.

If you don't have skills on programming, its better not to start. One of the problems of a new gambling site are related to security, user accounts and most important bankroll security. If you don't understand the code of your site you need to trust the coders. Any bug or back door could be a big problem.

Yeah even the best of sites like primedice and others are hacked like I heard HufflePuff hacked them or something. But they are a big company and it was nothing for them and they didn't even moved. While if the same happens to us or a new owner then he might quit all together. So, I agree with you, coding knowledge is must or hire a prodigy

To start off you don't need $300k to create a website. Like most websites did, you can start with a simple interface, a few basic games like dice and roulette, and then you will create the rest as soon as you have enough profit to be worth it. $5k would be perfect for a simple and secure website, in my opinion.

How much does it cost to build and maintain a website like primedice (for example)?

Hosting,programming,design and advertising costs?

I have an idea about a brand new bitcoin gambling game which will be completely different than the dice sites,

but i don`t know from where to start.

I don`t know if this is the right place to ask,but can anyone answer?

It will cost a lot of money bro hosting, advertising, promo and offers, if you want to build your own gambling site and you think that you cannot afford the minimum amount then try to find a partner that can assist you and contribute, it's really hard to manage a gambling site if you only one.

The biggest threat of buying a script are not the bugs but intentional backdoors left by the programmer which could let him or someone that he knows take advantage of it and win more bets, or plain old stealing.

Not necessarily required, it does not ensure success either even if you have the knowledge. What matters here is you must have a capital to start and you can hire competent people to run your business. It's like making your money work for you because you have the resources.

I think knowledge is needed about bugs and possible loop holes and about investment we don't have to worry as much since investments can be made by gamblers too once the site is in market and has some genuine team behind them.

I do not see many high roller bets on any site, so why attracting big fishes when you are new, just earn with regular gamblers unless you have build big.

Its really to have  a trustable  worker  on  your website which  handles  the  code or  programming of the website because  if you  dont have  completely  the  knowledge  of it atleast  he could able to tell you the possible flaws that  might happen. I agree  that   knowledge about bugs  and some exploits  would  be really helpful because  you could  possibly stop  the lose of money. Before you run  or  open  your  site to the public its really better to test it  out first.

Creating a site isn't the on monetary issues since you can create sites that doesn't cost that much. But talking about making a gambling site will make you encounter a problem on your bank money for that site and security for it that will cost a lot since you can't make a gambling site with a low bank since most people would think that you'll only scam them. But I think of something that will cost not that high and it includes on making your own cryptocurrency so that you would mind on your bank since you're the one who make your cryptocoin.

[katrimans]

I think we must have capital around 2000BTC it will be enough because we need much money for promotion the website outside need much time up to website become popular and many users on there, we could learned from the website of gambling had been run on here, they been running out large capital just for making promotion.

Honestly saying I think other than primedice and directbet no other site here would have such high bankrolls because seriously 2000 bitcoins is a big amount man. And another thing is if you invest so much at beginning then you cannot afford a downfall of site for any reason say it is legal or personal.

[darewaller]

I think  even 20 btc is enough to start a small gambling site or business in bitcoin..  since the price of bitcoin is very high. and i think people who are gamble are thinking the price of bitcoin before they will play and bet..
Yeah like izinagi said there is some casino gambling script already someone selling here in our forum.. but honestly almost all that game are not unique unless in design..
If you really want to start a gambling make sure you have a new idea and unique gambling casino that can be attract more people to gamble.. you know old gamblers are always looking for new.

Yeah old gamblers look for new sites because for some weird reasons they think on new site they will win. To start a site I think at least 50-100 BTC are required because I have seen people investing 10-20 btc on sites so investor should always have less invested than site owner I believe.

2000 btc is too high i guess but maybe 500 btc is enough to do so and yes sometimes promotions cost will more high rather than build the websites itself because usually some gambling sites will provide free btc to the players or free signup to attract more people playing at those sites so if OP really want to serious build new casinos online he have to prepare everything

Well maybe you are right 2000BTC are too high, but i think there are no wrong If it be used for reserve on his casino online and if the OP will build other kinds of gambling game or making promotion out there. The capital for make it will not become problem because of there are reserve on his cold wallet.

[hawkins]

Well, to make a gambling site, you must have a lot of BTC, because to create a gambling site, would require a promotion that requires a lot of money. apart from that you also need to create a site that has an attractive appearance, and I think it also requires a lot of money.

2000 Bitcoins is overkill when you intend to build a gambling site and yes as you said the sky is the limit here. Well if you do have the money theres no really problem and with this amount you could able to build a best graphic,security for a gambling site but the question is how people would recognize it? You will surely think of a gimmick or promotions that will surely hook up many potential players.If you do have the money then you have the power.

[mastica]

You cant make a gambling website for something like 2-4btc nowadays, with a good layout and security, but you will need some extra balance to handle users winnings, even knowing that the house always wins, you need a bankroll.
