Welcome to Discord Live, a brand new way to play on Discord.Commonly, chat app based gambling gets a bad wrap, often times being dull, lifeless, and sketchy. Well, after 8 months of development I am here to break the stigma and offer a REAL casino on Discord, breaking the boundaries of what has been done in the past. During development and production this project is based on three primary goals,
trust,
security, and
cosmetics. If we cannot guarantee that your crypto is safe while you play, guarantee that if the server was to be forcibly removed your crypto would be safe, or guarantee that the game doesn't offer an immersive play experience, then the code won't get written. I mean it, we're here to change the game on chat based crypto games.
How do I play?Discord Live offers two currencies, Gems and Coins. Guess what! You can join and try our games out right now without even making a deposit. Just join and use the command
.setcoins <amount> to set your coin balance and jump into any game channel with a lightning emote in the name. You'll play with 0 risk and get to know the games before making a deposit, although you cannot withdraw coins. Gems are played with in channels with a gem emote in their name, you obtain them by depositing with BTC, LTC, or ETH. With you're finished playing you can withdraw them, or hold on to them for another play session.
How do deposits & withdraws work?Deposits & withdraws are completely automated. Using the
.deposit and the
.withdraw commands you can freely purchase Gems with Bitcoin and withdraw your Gems back into Bitcoin after you play. Our automated deposits and withdraws are currently limited to Bitcoin, although we will manually accept LTC and ETH as well. The process might just take a bit longer, as it is done manually. A primary goal is to enable our systems to automatically offer ETH and LTC transactions soon.
How do you handle Bitcoin transaction fees?We've been asked this many times, so I think it is important to answer. Our main hot wallet that handles transactions is constantly being consolidated to keep our UTXO count within a perfect balance. We want to make sure there are enough unspents to handle withdraws, but we also want to make sure that withdraws are only using a single input for your transaction. Additionally, you can choose your withdraw fee! Just set a fee priority on your withdraw and you can pay a little more for a faster transaction, or pay a little less for a slower transaction. Currently we scrape the web for competitive sat/vbyte values to ensure you're getting the best value.
What happens if the server was forcibly removed?First, we are compliant with Discord's ToS as it is written and all local laws in the area Discord Live is hosted. Keep in mind, we do not deal with fiat currency in any capacity nor we do not offer a way to turn the Gems you
purchase into fiat. Although Discord is known for not following their own rules so we have many safe guards in place. First, when you log in for the first time you'll receive a secret access token you can use to login to your Discord Live account from any Discord user, if your account is removed by Discord you can recover your Discord Live funds with that code. Second, our service is entirely self generating, meaning we have a script that will generate the entire service from a completely empty server. The service can be back up and running in under 10 minutes after a force removal. Lastly, we have multiple rotating backup server to members to join to maintain contact in the event of a disaster.
What's Discord Live's future plans?As of this post the service is released just yesterday. After rigorous testing and getting user opinions I feel the service is at a comfortable state to show to the public as a kind of "beta". I am not sure where the future will be for Discord Live, but currently the checklist is full of items. Leaderboards, Crash, Blackjack, massive giveaways, and LTC & ETH auto deposits are some of our current goals. In the future, I'd like to see us evolve to a website to provide an even fuller service.
Thank you so much for reading.You can join Discord Live with the link
http://discord.gg/casinoPlease do not hesitate to ask any questions, I am more than happy to answer any items asked. I strive to be completely transparent about our odds, our wallets, our code, our design, and our future. No question is too direct, and I will make the best attempt I can to answer it directly to the best of my ability. My goal is to have a great service, I'm open to suggestions and I am open to being educated in areas where we may fall short.
I intend to be online for the next hour before I go to bed to answer any questions or concerns.
