metamask installation is required to play, should mention it somewhere on the site
an interesting idea with the investment option implemented in the contract itself
I would love a better explanation of your provably fair system
from your FAQ: Etherdice.io picks a secret random number and provides you with its hash
how does it pick a secret number, how is it hashed ,with what algorythm etc.
and while onchain dice game is cool and all, a dice game without autobet is a nono for me
and its impossible to create an onchain game with an autobet feature, sadly
You got a point here. We will update the site to create a pop up window to inform users that they need Metamask or Trust Wallet installed.
I think in terms of awareness, there are 2 types of blockchain users. Offchain and onchain.
We pick a secret number using a random function in the web3 library
It is hashed using web3 sha3 function
The secret number and blockhash is combined together to produce the random number. The blockhash is provided by the Ethereum network, hence it cannot be tampered.
Yes, autobet feature is not possible with onchain game due to limitation with the looping programming feature in smart contracts
In order to achieve autobet, there has to be some sort of centralization ( control of user funds ), atleast for Ethereum.
