I guess the main reason why people prefer not to participate is not about the no visible leaderboard, but it is a fact that most people in this forum do not really like wagering contest. There were some wagering contests in this forum from few casinos and as I can see is that the number of participant is always low. ~
Yeah, the number of participants is always low in Bitcointalk exclusive wagering contest. But the numbers aren't too big in the slots multiplier contest as well. Still, we had seen a good number of participants in the wagering contest of Yeet casino, and the wagered amount of the users was decent too.
Well, the prize is not tempting yet. Maybe if the prize is $10,000, I'm certain many gamblers will want to join. I might be wrong, but I've never seen casinos do favors for the gamblers in all wagering contests. It is more on their side.
User doesn't show their interest to participate in a wagering contest without the live leaderboard updating system. $10k prize pool wouldn't have a significant impact there. There is no way to check the total wagered amount at EarnBet. The whole system of EarnBet is backdated. They need to improve a lot to survive in the competition of the gambling world.
