Nice one! It's also interesting that BITdice has four decimal to make it harder to hit jackpot. I always thought that two decimals are standard.
Yeah four decimals also allows for higher possible multipliers. I know at least two other dice sites with four decimals, and exactly so that you can go for high multipliers/payouts. That's sort of why dice is so popular IMO, the chance to hit it big with such a small bet. Personally never go for max payout except occassionally and I've won x100 a few times but seen plenty of hits of x10k or more. 100 satoshi on autobet hunting for that big payout seems to be popular with regular dicers. I don't see how 2 decimals can make a big jackpot too. 1 in 10,000 will mean a lot of jackpot hits. I think to chance to get the jackpot with 2 decimals will occur as much as possible because it is easier to get 2 decimals instead of 4 decimals but the jackpot that they hit will of course be the same. Because the calculation will be based on the basebet, big or small bet will determine the result, so if a player play on both site 2 decimals and 4 decimals and lets say he hits both with the same bet then the amount he receives will be exactly the same No... I think the extra decimals means more difficult. Nobody makes four decimals and makes the jackpot hit on 77.7700. Every extra decimal means extra 10 multiplier. It is the difference between 1 in 10,000 and 1 in 1,000,000 for 2 extra decimals. So if you could hit on 1 in 10,000 the jackpot would probably be much smaller than the jackpot on the 1 in 1 million. If not, then show me the site with 2 decimals and I guarantee I will hit jackpot in a few days This is all just pure assumption you have there, did you ever tried with 10k, 100k or even 1mil bets? I believe you are not going to believe the result. You said that it will hit the jackpot in 10 for examples but in reality in does not going to hit it, it is going to be more than 10k I believe so in the end, if you hit the jackpot with more than 10k bets, you will still on negative, unless you are pretty lucky enough to hit it under that 10k So I do not really calculate the jackpot details, and btw I do not really think that you need a few days just to have 10k bets, you only need some few minutes to get it done but of course no jackpot

Unless this jackpot works differently as I imagine.

Unless this jackpot works differently as I imagine. When you consider the amounts of big bets that are often played at Bitdice keeping 4 decimals makes sense, if it was kept easy all would win and the excitement of winning the jackpot would fade away. I think the jackpot works just fine, and in the end I think we'll should respect Bitdice decision to keep it at 4 decimals, as that's what makes it more challenging and fun to win.

What both of you said is right, I do not say that it is bot fair to have this 4 decimals to hit the jackpot but if you compare on 2 decimals and 4 decimals, it is really a big different you have there, by adding 2 more decimals it will sure harder but the chance to hit it is higher. But what I am refering this is let say with just 2 decimals and you will hit one time jackpot in 10k of bets. But in the reality this will not happen, you need just more than that I tried it on so many sites and always ask them the chances to hit the jackpot but in the end, I have not hit once

Most sites with only 2 decimals won't let you win a jackpot with just a 77.77 hit since that happens quite frequently. Some require you to roll 77.77 twice in a row to win the jackpot for example.

I'll agree this happens on many sites and honestly I don't like this, the site should award at the first time only, or keep it fixed at 4 decimals which creates transparency for me knowing I can win at the first shot or not win at all. That's one major difference between Bitdice and other sites Bitdice is transparent, quick in support, active community and most importantly they got best of games, you can try it and you'll agree to all I said.

That's what I meant above, which people didn't seem to understand 77.77 just means 1 in 10,000... which is very easy to see if you look at the daily total bets, people make hundreds of thousands of bets. So either jackpot payout is small in that hit, or the chance to hit it is made more difficult (like hitting it twice in a row, or making an additional requirement like crypto-games where bet ID must also end in 7). Asking me if I've ever tried doing 10k rolls of course I have and yes I've hit several hunts on autobet. Just looking at my millions of bets and pulling up history plenty of nice numbers.

EOSBet only offers dice, correct? If we're looking at the amount of games, BitDice has more to offer. Also if I understand correctly EOSBet is on the blockchain which severely limits the speed of bets. I'd imagine there are other benefits to on-chain betting though.

Great news indeed! BitDice is one of the best gambling sites (at least for me) and this upgrade will certainly boost it more. From my experience fiat acceptance is a big step and not easy to achieved. Needs a lot of work and efford so congrats for making it possible. By the way, the site will be closed on 20/10 for how long? One-two days?

We’re happy to finally announce that the update we’ve been working on for the past months is right around the corner. The most anticipated thing is that the entire site codebase is now written in Elixir. This means a huge performance improvement compared to the previous version and also means quicker bets and smaller minimum bet requirements for dice. Having that out of the way means we’ve been able to focus on New Games, Live Support, Improved Chat and much more.
On October 20, BitDice will go offline for an upgrade.
To celebrate the release of the new version, we will also be running a wager competition with 2 BTC in prizes upon release! To see more information on this contest, please visit the following thread:- Link will be posted soon!
- Codebase written in Elixir
- BitAces and Sports Betting introduced
- Chat (and private chat) have been rewritten
- Chat Bots
- Improved performance and reduced minimum bet size
- Live Support
- Bug Fixes
- Improved transaction handling
- Updated User Levels
We will transfer active accounts over to the new site but other accounts will be removed with the transition.
User levels have been reworked and will be based on $USD values in the future. We're moving to USD values in preparation of adding FIAT currency support to the site. In the future, users will have the choice between using FIAT or crypto currencies. With this update the stats are going to be reset. We’ll however rollover last 6 months of wager to the new system so active users’ levels will not completely be reset.
To ensure everyone is eligible for the rewards we have to offer we’re removing anonymous accounts. This means everyone must register using an email address. All existing anonymous accounts have to register an email address to continue using the site.We have written the new version entirely in Elixir. This means a welcome boost to the site’s performance effectively meaning we can now accept bets (including small ones) with smaller delays and also reduce the minimum bet for our Dice game. Players will be able to bet as little as 0.00000001 DOGE per bet for example.As most of you know we’ve been looking to introduce sports betting on BitDice and it’s finally possible. We’ll be offering better lines compared to many of our competitors as well as high betting limits.We’re introducing another provably fair game called BitAces which has been revamped and is now being added back on the site. It’s a simple single-player poker game which will be an addition to the list of our own games.
We’ve also fixed multiple known issues in our Dice and Blackjack games which should mean a smoother experience for players.Live Support is being added to the site which means customers will now have less issues contacting the site staff and thus issues are expected to be fixed much faster than before. We’ll be using Intercom to provide the support.The chat (including private chat) has been written from scratch. We’ll also be adding Elixir chatbots (price checker, last block etc.) to the chat to make it more interactive and entertaining for everyone. In the future Admins and Mods will be separated from regular users with tags before their names.Ethereum transactions will now work much better as variable fees are being added. This means transactions such as ethereum contract transactions will work without issues given that correct fees are being set.
Users can now add an address lock for CSNO transactions too which was previously a feature that only worked for other currencies. Some bugs with locked addresses have also been fixed and transactions won’t be randomly blocked due to issues with locked addresses anymore.
Withdrawal confirmation bugs have been fixed and confirmation shouldn’t be stalled anymore for slow connection etc. Issue with transactions containing multiple deposits has also been fixed.
2-Factor key is now being randomized after deactivation and thus a new key is provided each time. This is the update we'll have been waiting for, after months of teasing and waiting when sports betting will be live it's officially announced and with a bang. I really liked the fact that Alex and his team have focused on all areas from improving site code, to adding sports bets and biggest allowing low bets to all. They have also answered one major issue effecting online casinos i.e. Online Live Support this shall be a instant hit. For all who're looking at this update it's confirmed site shall be down for one day on 20th October, for the updates to be processed, it's pertinent to note sign up with a valid email address to save your accounts, as it's been stated accounts without mail will be removed, this is important especially if you have any balance in a account and you have yet to verify it's email. Also I'm looking forward to the big competitions announced by Alex can't wait to see them.

Really great news, I wonder if the team is thinking about a rebrand in the meantime? Because the platform is getting bigger and bigger and especially with sports betting it is now much more than just dice.

Always happy to see another competitor enter the space, especially if they add something new BitDice, if you don't mind answering, are you using a custom in-house sportsbook solution, or are you using a white label book?
