Mid-Month results are in - and we're happy to report a positive change in our Sportsbook! Right now we are cautiously optimistic that our new 3rd party is helping our results, but do want to stress that there is a great amount of variance in our industry (both up and down). That said - at the end of the day, long-term, the house (and mathematics) always prospers. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmSWZWkGJ1V3dFpxZHVTN0x6ZldUeHRteWdBd1pMNXc&usp=drive_web#gid=16CBTC Casino : +7.12 BTC Bit777 / PeerBet : + 3.975 BTC Sportsbook (100% Risk): +5.417 BTC Sportsbook (3rd Party) + 13.273 BTC * Note - the 3rd party number above is raw and doesn't account for their 'take' for assuming all the risk and setting the markets and odds. At the end of the month, we'll show this cost on the public P&L.

Good job. I think it's a great move to stabilise the variability in the sportsbook. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I'm not sure if it's even available, but have you guys considered purchasing Bitbook's code for the sportsbook? It was a pretty snappy experience, if I recall.

Beleive it or not we reached out to those guys a lot when they were still in business to get some feedback and collaborate - but never had success getting a response, they seemed to take the whole "competition thing" a bit too seriously. That said, we will be working on a redesign of the sportsbook in 2014 now that we have some dedicated UI/UX support in-house. I'm not sure if it's even available, but have you guys considered purchasing Bitbook's code for the sportsbook? It was a pretty snappy experience, if I recall.

https://coinreport.net/bitcasino-io-launches-world-cup-sportsbook/Competition is really stepping up. I've got to say our site and games are looking quite a bit dated compared to some of these new up and comers. Bunch of new sites with 3d games are looking really nice too. Do we have any plans to step up our game in this areas? Would love to see us register one of those .io domains and create something next gen. Also would it be possible to starting seeing numbers around number of bets placed rather then just our earnings?

Competition is really ramping up. Bit777 has good game graphics, the big issue to tackle is that the new game providers have 100's of games, that are all high def and interactive. A few of them look to be based on https://www.casinowebscripts.com/ software. I think you should either purchase or develop something similar to their 3D Drag Race - Multiplayer Speed Racers title (its a multiplayer game), would be a unique edge of the competitors

We should really consider adding more more original games. Games outside of a normal casino. I happen to be working on a game of deal or no deal, what kind of demand do you think there would be for fun games like that outside of the gambling norm?
Also what about inventing a new type of game? Something that applies the concepts of poker to a more modern turn based multiplayer strategy game? I think there is good money to be made in taking bitcoin and using it to make a game that was not otherwise possible before it's existence. Something that takes full advantage of its strengths and creates a way for people to gamble their bitcoin in a new and fun way.
I think it's possible to take bitcoin gambling in a very different direction and I would love to see our company take a stab at something crazy.

We are aware of a couple of these newer turnkey sites. The idea of multiplayer games for bitcoin sounds great, and is something we'll have to research alongside our regular P2P multiplayer pools and contests.

Also would it be possible to starting seeing numbers around number of bets placed rather then just our earnings? We can provide those types of numbers and will do so since the next report. Consideration is in the works for options for additional transparency here moving forward. First signs are good for volume with the new 3rd party sportsbook - Once we ramp up all the other varieties available to add, including leagues & bet types available and in-play betting, currently in our Pipeline (through July) - we really expect volume growth to increase. We'll look into a .io domain as far as it can play in with our current brand. Thanks for the suggestion!

We're open minded to this! We're developing a new casino game that is progressing really well - but we'll certainly research what would work for our brand as far as non-traditional multiplayer games. Similar to one of the posters above you, and I love the idea.

I've seen this a few times in the past an ignored it since I thought it would obviously be fixed soon.... but it hasn't: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FOA9gVU6.png&t=665&c=ChKmSh5Hxl37fg) This is what I get when I try to explore peerbet. This is an incredibly ugly and jarring user experience. I never even tried to log in, so there was no session to expire. And then this is bit777 response when you are not logged in: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FJt4lTfq.png&t=665&c=VhBCDgS7Fp7Qxg) Both horrible user experiences. Why doesn't bit777 allow for playing with play money when your not logged in like our main site does? If I was exploring either of these sites for the first time I would have immediately clicked away after seeing this, something really needs to be done about this experience. Your competition handles this far more elegantly and allows for people to play without logging in at all to get a taste of the action. Also, CloudBet is absolutely destroying our sportsbook with it's user experience. A quick jump to their world cup page vs ours is a massive no brainer. If I was a better I'd be heading over there no question. Any plans to compete with this? Also, any plans to add NXT to your site? It is now the #3 currency, and a lot of NXTers are looking for places to play with their nxt, it shouldn't be ignored.

Just picked up a few shares of this listing on havelock investments to see if it might be a decent investment opportunity. Looks like the share price has had it's ups and downs in the past and hoping I'm coming in on one of the downs.

Hello mr_e! First image - not sure why you are seeing that, but feel free to shoot over steps to reproduce to support@casinobitco.in to investigate further. Bit777 - we agree, most of the flash-based, turnkey solutions out there (including Bit777) is not an ideal experience in today's day and age. That said, Bit777 improvement are most likely last on our list of priorities. We are looking at things holistically and the traffic, volume of wagers, and cost to improve the 3rd party software which runs that site just doesn't justify the effort / cost. We will have more detail on the short (~2 months) and long term (6-12 months) technical and product roadmap in our monthly report - but a sneakpeak in priorities is as follows: 1) Redesign of HTML5 Casino Games on CasinoBitco.in (in-progress) 2) Redesign of PeerBet as a whole (in-progress) 3) More Sports Options in the CasinoBitco.in Sportsbook (in-progress) 4) Redesign of the Sportsbook in CasinoBitco.in (planned) As for NTX - We'll take a look, we've been investigating alt-coins for a bit, and are working vigorously to get Dark Coin up and running in PeerBet. Assuming that goes smoothly, it will make sense to retire another hardly-used coin and replace it with NXT> I've seen this a few times in the past an ignored it since I thought it would obviously be fixed soon.... but it hasn't:
This is what I get when I try to explore peerbet. This is an incredibly ugly and jarring user experience. I never even tried to log in, so there was no session to expire.
And then this is bit777 response when you are not logged in:
Both horrible user experiences. Why doesn't bit777 allow for playing with play money when your not logged in like our main site does?
