I think directbet should update there mining fee or the transaction fee so that settlement of the bet will be fast.
Like the trading or exchange site they update the withdrawal fee to 0.0005 bitcoin so that the confirmation of transaction will be fast .


I compared Directbet and Cloudbet odds I see better odds on cloudbet. You guys should do better odds.

Hi yolanda222,

Thanks for betting at DirectBet

I assume that you are waiting for your initial bet transfer to reach 1 confirmation in the network.

Unfortunately, the Bitcoin network is currently overloaded and there is nothing that we can do but wait.

You can find more details about it here : https://www.directbet.eu/FAQ.cshtml#SettlementInProgress

Your bet will be paid out automatically as soon as your initial bet transfer will have 1 confirmation. You can monitor the status of your bet transfer in the blockchain.

If you have any other problem please contact support@directbet.eu with your bet ID so that they will be able to happily look into it for you.

Thanks a lot !

All the Best,

Michelle

Hi BlackMambaPH,

Thank you very much for your suggestion

We pay very high fees when we issue the payouts so that our members will receive the payouts fast.

We are waiting for your initial bet transfer to have 1 confirmation in the network, before issuing the payout. This is required to ensure that we actually received your initial wager.

Usually, it takes a few seconds or minutes for your initial bet transfer to have 1 confirmation, so by the time your bet wins, it should get paid without delay.

Because the Bitcoin network is currently overloaded it might take longer for your initial bet transfer to have 1 confirmation, especially if you did not pay the required transactional fee for the transfer, or if the transaction is non standard, or if you were spending unconfirmed coins. In such cases there is nothing we can do but wait.

Your bet will be paid out automatically as soon as your initial bet transfer will have 1 confirmation. You can monitor the status of your bet transfer in the blockchain.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

Thanks a lot !

All the Best,

Michelle

I suggest you to use Ethereum or LTC for betting these days as they don't take too long to get confirmation, I am also using ETH in directbet for several weeks now and always get my bet settled within few minutes and never got any payments stucked due to blockchain confirmation.

Until now still pending more than 15 hours,I am still waiting until  enter.
I forgot that blockchain is having problems now,Maybe next bet I will use dogecoin

I was just going to bring up the same thing.   I snatched up a bet on Errol Spence Jr. to win against Kell Brook because directbet had him at -164 while vegas had him around -200.

I think it's been around 24 hours still with 0 confirmations, but good thing the fight isn't until 5/27.

The odds have already massively shifted on the site.   Hopefully its confirmed within 9 days lol.   That is bad for blockchain.

At this point, if you are using BTC to bet, I think you have to set your fee settings to "very high" to get priority.



@ Directdice: what happens in the event that your bet gets confirmed but the game takes place before the confirmations even hit the blockchain?

Do you still honor the confirmed bet, but just delayed payouts?

I'm with you there.  I'm probably going to pick up some more ETH just for betting purposes.

Yes that is correct.

Yeah bitcoin usability for day-to-day transactions is going down the tube.  I've ended up using my Polo account as my hot wallet.  Just keep some bitcoin available and loan it out.  It ends up paying for their withdrawal fee, and seems to work okay.

It also seems to be alot faster than my regular bitcoin wallet, but of course any Mt. Gox type problem and I'll be screwed but so far so good....knock on wood

If you still haven't got confirmation on your bitcoin transaction than try using viabtc tx accelerator, it can actually help you to get confirmation. Yeah you can use doge, it is also quite nice alt with stable price and faster/cheaper transaction. https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/

Hi Directbet,

Why there is no option for Cleveland Cavaliers for NBA outrights since the beginning of the playoffs (or I think even before the season ends). Thinking you just remove it, I just checked it again today and still no option for the Cavaliers but other betting site have.

Thanks.

[keithers]

Confirmations still going so slow . Sent bet over 30 hours ago with 0 confirmations still
