[ANN][ICO] SmartBillions World’s first multi-billion-dollar blockchain lottery.

[glennmatthew]

Something that I'm missing is the opportunity to bet on several lines of random numbers like when people buy a coupon with a certain number of lines. The way it's done now it will probably take several hours just to play 100 lines. I hope that someone is working on a solution for that.

yea thats not so hard to make i think ^^ would love that 2.
more plays = more money
more plays = more fun ^^

I actually think that it's needed. If I want to play a lottery and use something like 10 USD then I'm not going to sit for an hour making many small transactions and i don't want to bet it all on just one line.

I just tested how long it takes to play one line. 3 minutes and 14 seconds with a small fee. That would be more than 80 minutes to play 26 lines which is approximately $10. That's a problem.

I second that idea - it would be amazing and minimise transaction fees.

I wonder if the current smart contract supports such a functionality. As I understand the transaction is what holds the numbers that you bet, can the transaction hold for example 10 numbers - and know how much was staked on each of those numbers?

please devs make option to bet multiple times!

Daily stats for lottery looking great. Imagine when multiple bets are enabled and then advertising is sent to promo lottery not ico! IT will be so huge.

How is the dividend paid out?  I know it's 5% but is etereum sent to the token holders?

Thanks

Yes, ETH is sent to token holders once a month. Actually SMART owners are entitled to their part of dividends and then they have to claim it. There will be instructions soon i belive.

What do you think about the ICO so far?
2500 ETH sold out of 200 000 cap.
Not so good result in my opinion.

I saw ADS on facebook saying that 25% of tokens are already sold...

CPU activity goes on overdrive when opening the website. Happens every time. Is it just the silly animation in the background or is there something more sinister going on? Anyone else noticed that?

Result ain't great. However there is still a few days left. Some investors might wait until the last minutes to actually figure out how many tokens will be sold and how many will be burned.

not true. this is most likely caused by the animations.

What's the difference with ethlottery.co ??

They claim to be the only decentralised blockchain based lottery too

[alexluthor]

I have some questions:

1) Check bets
"All bets and results are public and recorded on the Ethereum blockchain without 3rd party involvement.""

For example, the result on your website:
#BLOCK: 4388325
HITS: 2/6

How can I check the numbers chosen by the players?

Is it registered in the log on Etherscan?

https://etherscan.io/tx/0x4bfed3be27f9bc3c1ebb0aa36bb0cf812e9162f6ed321cdf9ae05421d69a8071

2) Payout
If someone bet 1 ETH, the "ESTIMATED  WIN" for HIT #6 is 7.000.000 ETH

How would you pay for that if someone HIT #6 numbers?

Thanks

Ad. 1 Yes please see the bet transaction input data:

Function: playSystem(uint256 _hash, address _partner) ***

MethodID: 0x26699576

• :00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000007876fc
[1]:0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

The chosen numbers are "7876fc"

And now see the hash of the +3 block:
0xafb31f57a0aefdbd6d349102d2aeadb9c4c4b196f08ea8de1722d94ee5f83fec

The draw results are the last 6 digits of the hash: "f83fec"
So 2 numbers match "8" and "c"

Ad. 2
If the win exceeds 50 % of the Jackpot the winner is allowed to withdraw only 50 % of the Jackpot value immediately and after that he will be able to withdraw 50 % of the Jackpot value until he withdraws all the sum.

Thank you for the answer. It should put an example like that on the website (check bets).

About the question 2, I mean:

Player places 1 ETH and HIT #6. So, he should receive 7.000.000 ETH.

But, Smartbillions has on Jackpot only 2.500 ETH in this moment.

In this case, the player can withdraw 1.250 ETH now and "After that, the player will be able to cash out up to 50% of the Jackpot value every period (approx. 1 month) until the withdrawal of the total value of the win." (Whitepaper). To be honest, I didn't understand how it works the other 50% withdraw later on. Will it be monthly payment? How long time?

So, the player wouldn't receive the money showed on "ESTIMATED  WIN" (7.000.000 ETH), but 2.500 ETH only.

If this is correct, Smartbillions should show on "ESTIMATED WIN - HIT#6" the value according to the ACTUAL Jackpot.

the winner of 7.000.000 ETH can withdraw 50% of the current jackpot every month until the whole win is payed. other lotteries like powerball also do payouts on a monthly base.
