What's the deal with coins on jd?  Do we have to withdraw them soon or else? Or can they just sit there?

withdraw

Or else
1: Canadian Govt find doog
1a: steal his money
1b: take doog away and cant send $
1c: nothing happen

2: Money goes back to emergency addres

It's Canada, what are they going to do? Cut their weekly maple syrup delivery in half?
(No offense, I like Canada)

The way the new law looks to me is that in order to continue "dealing with Bitcoins" Just-Dice would have to start collecting private information from its customers, reporting anyone transferring "suspicious" amounts, and other such invasions of privacy.

That kind of behaviour is not something I would want to be involved in, and so I am asking that you withdraw your coins before they start enforcing the new law.

I sure he love to live in snow because its amazing to live here in this place

[minerpumpkin]

This is sad 
Why not move the operation somewhere else? Ilse of man? Some other place, anonymously?

Also, I would never ever suggest to just do the operation there, with the actual servers, keys, etc. located at home. Private VPNs, Proxies etc. That may be illegal, I guess. So don't even get that idea!

Hey Doog, are you Canadian? Was JD based or hosted in Canada?

If I were you I would be so stoked to pick a spot, anywhere on the globe and set up shop over there. Even change it up every now and again.

But if you are in search of R&R no one in bitcoin space has earned it more than you.  Ty again Doog.

Inside the bustling, dicey world of Bitcoin gambling

The site was founded in June by Chris "dooglus" Moore of British Columbia, Canada, and specializes in a simple dice-rolling game in which the house maintains a slim 1-percent edge.


To gamble with bitcoins is to double down: It’s a wager on top of a risk.

The currency itself, which was created in late 2008 by pseudonymous programmer Satoshi Nakamoto.  In fact, the timing couldn’t have been better. Two years earlier, Congress passed the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, which prohibited casinos from accepting payments for bets made online. The move pushed online gambling into the corners of the Deep Web, where users are protected by the Tor browser. And it created a high demand for online gambling sites based in Europe and Canada, where the practice is legal.

Thanks - so why doesn't he just sell it to someone if he's not planning to run it anymore?

There's a bunch of reasons that could be it, who cares.

Maybe he wants to keep his options open later, maybe he doesn't want a scammer to hi-jack his software and dupe people, maybe he doesn't care about more money at this point and wants a peaceful existence with his blessed life as is.

I'm sure he'll make whatever choice is best for himself in due time.

I'm sure he's weighing his options. Look at it this way. the Canadian government may decide that dooglus doesn't have to collect personal data on investors of 100BTC or less. Now as of his last report, the investors under 100 BTC summed to only 10,723 BTC out of the bankroll of 53,280 BTC.

Now could he open Just Dice with a 10K bankroll (max profit of 50 BTC). Absolutely. Plus dooglus can't be responsible for people who open up multiple accounts of one satoshi less than 100 BTC.

Personally, I think JD would be more profitable with a smaller bankroll. I think that even with a 50 BTC or a 100 BTC limit, there would be plenty of activity, and return for the investors would be higher since they are split among a smaller group.

Look at the numbers for doge-dice. I know they are very small compared to just-dice, but note that profit is 50% bigger than invested. For just dice the profit was much smaller than the amount invested because of whale activity. If you were an investor of JD for under 100 BTC you would have been smarter to pull it out and invest in doge-dice (assuming bitcoin doesn't keep inflating).

If you just open up doge-dice and keep investors below the equivalent of 50BTC would that drop below the suspicious level.

while not on the level of JD, it would still be a decent passtime and a good investment opportunity, I counted only 11 investors on doge-dice with over 100 BTC invested, and only 13 with between 50BTC and 100BTC.

That doesn't make sense. Just open a bunch of accounts of 90 btc and who would know better. Even idiotic governments would know this.

[minerpumpkin]

I guess he's evaluating the obvious/easiest legal options, whether the site can remain operating in Canada, maybe with minor changes. If this turns out to be futile, he may opt to really go and run the site from somewhere else. Isle of Man, anonymous places... I believe he loves the site, so he won't give it up/away easily.
Again, just hosting the site somewhere legal or unknown and manage/run it from home unnoticed may be illegal and bad advice I'd give to no one *ahem* *ahem*

[PacoMartin]

It's not a question of what can be done, it's a question of responsibility of the web site owner. If the website owner is responsible to ask for a name, and he gets dozens of names generated from a random number generator, is it his responsibility to go through names and see if they realistic names?

In the USA there is an upper limit for private cash transactions. It is $10,000 . Now there are plenty of illegal cash transactions in amounts below $10K, but the government requires you to report to the IRS a cash transaction of $10K or more. There is no presumption of illegal activity. You might pay for an old sports car in cash for some amount over $10K. There is nothing illegal about buying the sports car, but it is illegal to not report the transaction to the IRS.

I am not sure of the law in Canada. Now $10K < 17 BTC. So if dooglus is required to register with the Canadian government every investor deposit of 17 BTC or more, than he probably can't function.

If a more reasonable sum is determined, than he may have a workable business. As of the last report, these are the top investors in doge-coin (expressed in BTC)

693.71
670.22
248.39
233.82
215.62
213.95
189.59
147.65
132.59
116.08
107.97

If he can meet government regulations by restricting investments to the dogecoin equivalent of under 100 BTC, and is only forced to produce a list of investment or withdrawals on demand then he might have a working business model that could operate under the radar.

While some people will be reluctant to turn bitcoins in doge-coins, there may be enough to restore business. Doge-dice made 2200 BTC equivalent in profit, which is a little more than 1/8 of the profit of JD. I don't know how long Doge-dice has been operational.

In general, the government will have to win cases to establish precedents. They are much less likely to go after a dogecoin operation for one of the first test cases. Who wants that story in the news.

Not going to happen. For this site to be legal has to have a casino license, which would require the RNG to be inspected by a casino inspector (the law doesn't believe in provably fair) and for doog to pay taxes.

What we need now is a YouTube clip "Hitler is told JD is shutting down". 

[cech4204a]

I cannot believe that the largest site with Dice went out off market. I have played there for 1 whole month and invested some little, i was lucky enough to make some profit. People will now try to invest money in other simmilar sites , but please be carefull, you need investment that is safe, not a scam.
