FIRSTBTC LOTTERY
The First Bitcoin Lottery Where You Don't Have to Trust Anyone

THE PROBLEM WITH EVERY LOTTERY YOU'VE EVER PLAYED
 
When was the last time you actually verified a lottery result?
 
Not just saw the numbers on a screen — but genuinely confirmed, independently, that the draw was real and wasn't manipulated?
 
You can't. Every traditional lottery — and most crypto lotteries — runs on one thing: blind faith. You hand over your money and trust a company to tell you who won. There's no public audit trail. No way for any player to independently check the process.
 
That's not good enough in 2026.
 
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 
WHAT FIRSTBTC LOTTERY DOES DIFFERENTLY
 
✔ Fully On-Chain Draws
Every entry, every draw, every result is recorded on a public blockchain. Any player, anywhere in the world, can pull up the draw and verify the outcome themselves — no permission needed, no company to ask.
 
✔ Licensed & Compliant
FirstBTC Lottery operates under a proper gambling license. We're not a grey-area operation. Legal accountability and on-chain transparency together — not one or the other.
 
✔ Instant Payouts to Your Wallet
Winnings go directly to your Bitcoin wallet the moment the draw is confirmed on-chain. No processing delays. No middlemen holding your funds. No paperwork.
 
✔ No "Trust Us"
We don't ask you to trust us. The blockchain does that job. Our results aren't announced on our website — they live on a public ledger that nobody controls.
 
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 
HOW IT WORKS
 
1. Enter the lottery using Bitcoin
2. The draw runs on-chain — publicly verifiable by anyone
3. The winner is selected transparently — no black box
4. Winnings are sent directly to the winner's wallet instantly
 
That's it. No hidden fees. No waiting. No trust required.
 
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 
WHY BITCOIN?
 
Bitcoin was the first. It's the most trusted, most decentralised, most battle-tested blockchain in the world. Building a lottery on Bitcoin means building on a foundation that nobody owns and nobody controls — the same values we built FirstBTC Lottery around.
 
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
 
Q: Is FirstBTC Lottery licensed?
A: Yes. We hold a valid gambling license and operate fully within legal frameworks.
 
Q: How do I verify the draw results myself?
A: Every draw is recorded on-chain. Full instructions on how to independently verify any result are available on our website and Telegram.
 
Q: How quickly are winnings paid out?
A: Instantly — directly to your wallet upon draw confirmation. No delays, no manual processing.
 
Q: What makes this different from other crypto lotteries?
A: Most crypto lotteries use Bitcoin as a payment method but run draws on a centralised server you can't see. FirstBTC is fully on-chain — the draw itself is transparent, not just the payment.
 
Q: Where can I ask questions?
A: Join our Telegram community. We answer everything.

Welcome to the forum
I recommend you move this to the Gambling Board - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=56.0

It is currently on the gambling discussion board.

That is the board that would suit it best.

[Hazink]

Welcome to the forum. 

Try and get yourself a copper membership so that you are allowed to post some images and refine your ANN to be more informative and organised. 

There is no link to the headers, like the social media platform, and most especially, the licencing which I pick interest in. I have also tried to search through your casino. I can't find it. Can you point to us where and which licence you are using so that it could also be verified now authentic it is.

[Emma_Sarvi]

Thanks for the welcome and the suggestion Davidvictorson! I'll look into moving it to the main Gambling board. Appreciate the guidance.

[Emma_Sarvi]

Hazink — great points, thank you. You're right that the links aren't active yet — I'll be getting copper membership shortly to fix the formatting and make everything clickable.
Regarding the license — FirstBTCLottery operates under two licenses: a Curaçao eGaming license and a Kahnawake Gaming Commission license. Both are widely recognised licensing jurisdictions in the online gambling industry. Full license details and verification links will be added to the ANN once I have copper membership and can post properly.
Transparency is literally the foundation we built this on — so having the license credentials front and centre is a priority, not an afterthought. Happy to answer any other questions in the meantime.

[Cointxz]

Welcome to the forum.

You mentioned you have license for your lottery but I don’t see it being displayed on the homepage or the ToS of the casino. Your ToS mentioned you are following the law by British Colombia but there’s no available license details for that.

Displaying your license and make it verifiable will make your casino boost confidence for bettors.

[Orpichukwu]

@Emma_Sarvi, I can see you have purchased the copper membership. Like you said, this forum has rules; the two posts you made are role-playing and could have been combined together so that you don’t spam your own thread.

Since you talk about being licensed by "a Curaçao eGaming licence and a Kahnawake Gaming Commission licence", I hope you wouldn’t mind adding your licensing number to your platform so that those who know how to manually verify them with the right source will do that.

I also checked and could not find the License they claimed they had. If they have gotten any, they could have been proud to present it that they are fully legal and operating under a jurisdiction that recognises their operations. I hope this is not like others who would say something else and be doing another thing, because that would taint their name and reputation here. Just as you have said, if they put up their license here it could give them a boost.

Welcome to bitcointalk, lotteries have not done so well here to this point but I wish you good luck!! If your verification process works as advertised, maybe you have a chance. Engaging with the community and building some relationships while running this and building trust are keys to your success.

Yahoo, you have been more in the forum and within Bitcoin community more time than me, both as an user of Bitcoin and also as a Campaign manager.
Do you have any idea why lotteries have never been so successful when compared to other services within our gambling market?

I can only think that most gamblers seek to have the fastest dopamine as possible and they are not willing to wait much for results.
Is this assumption from me accurate or is there something more to it?

This topic got me curious, because I have participated in lotteries before (with my family) and I have surprised there do not occupy a highest place within this forum and within gambling services powered by Bitcoin.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think people really trust the operators so far and the lack of transparency. Take that and the wait time and not very many win, people just choose to gamble differently. There is usually a jackpot when it comes to lotteries but so rare to hit it.

Is it trust actually the problem?
Because I have recalled to see some lotteries which actually used mechanisms which allowed people to verify the results of the number drawing, I have been seen some services which did not actually drew numbers by their own but used data on the Bitcoin Block hashes in order to determine winners and so on...

But I understand what you mean when you say people just happens to gamble differently. Even here in my country, it seems betting in sports has become more popular than playing lotteries, which is an evolution of the gambling market itself, because before we all had such a huge access to technology, people simply choose to buy lottery tickets by traffic lights and in agencies which were widely available on the country...

Does not work in a similar way there in the United States?

I think the waiting time is more important. If you gamble at an online casino, the results are instant, whereas with the lottery you have to wait. In this case, it seems that the results are based on mined blocks and are verifiable, so the element of trust isn’t important here; what is important is that, on average, it takes 10 minutes, but sometimes it can take up to an hour. If you play roulette, craps or slots, you place your bet and get the result in seconds.

What’s most appealing about the lottery is the chance to win a huge prize, but the probability of winning decreases in proportion to the size of the prize.

[Nrcewker]

I don't think people really trust the operators so far and the lack of transparency.

This is the main reason why many people don’t like lottery games. Earlier, many lottery operators tried to launch their projects on this forum, but there was always some shady motivation hidden behind them. Because of this, people started to dislike the concept of lotteries.

Nowadays, many people participate in lotteries, but the number of winners is very limited. This is another reason why people tend to avoid lotteries.

If the on-chain verification system truly works, then OP can solve the first problem I mentioned. But how are you going to tackle the second problem? Also, OP, don’t forget to run promotional campaigns on the forum. The more people see your site and lottery project, the more players you will get.

It's so rare that it could take years before someone hits a jackpot, or maybe none.

I believe it's because many have already tried to bet on lotteries in this forum, especially in the old school gambling platforms, which also have faucets inside. I've been there before, and I used all my accumulated faucet money to buy lottery tickets and got nothing good.
Then, let's also face the fact that the percentage of winning is very low, so some gambler would rather take their chances on other types of casino games.

Still, I like the OP's approach. Maybe there will be something good that will come out of this. Good luck.

Welcome to Bitcointalk.org.
Maybe you should move this thread to the Gambling forum(where most casino announcement threads are being posted), not the Gambling Discussion forum.
Your website looks decent, but it loads slowly on my browser and for some reason I can't scroll down to the bottom of the webpage. I'm using Brave browser.
A 5 USD ticket? Do you have cheaper tickets?
The biggest problem with online lotteries is that nobody trusts the lottery owner and nobody thinks that the winner is chosen fairly. I hope that you could solve this problem by adding transparency and public verification of the randomness of draws.
Another reason why lotteries aren't popular among the gamblers is the lack of a "gaming experience". You just buy a ticket and wait for the draw. This makes lotteries kinda boring.
Anyway, good luck with this project.

Id checked the site and its really have a not si bad deesigned and details of their lottery. But youre right, license information should be fisplayed or better yet can be seen so if anyone wanted to confirm it to relevant department it will prove the transparency of the operator.

OP is the price $5 per game? It would be best if you offer a lesser game entry or make a category for lower amount. That would entice mote users for this. I think if you do it right and got some marketing campaign here many would be using it soon.

[coinrifft]

I echo the sentiments as well that you need to lower that $5. As you are new here in the community, there could be gamblers that will have trust issues with this kind of games. I haven't stay that long in this community, but it looks like lottery is one game that wasn't successful as others have said.

But in any case, good luck and hope you listen to those senior members base on what they observed.

What’s most appealing about the lottery is the chance to win a huge prize, but the probability of winning decreases in proportion to the size of the prize.

I think there is also the factor between time people are supposed to wait and the size of the prize or jackpot.
It would be possible (as you mention) to build and lottery which allowed gamblers to check results every ten seconds and in a probably fair manner, but the jackpot and the prize of a ten minute literary will never be the same as a lottery which runs for an entire week before drawing the winning numbers on television or during a stream on kick.
If there was a way for some casino to offer one million dollars every ten minutes and guarantee enough people buy tickets, then it would be more people interested in lotteries, I assume.

So far the competition lotteries have to face in order to get attention from gamblers is quite big...

[Emma_Sarvi]

Thank you all for the warm welcome and the honest feedback — this is exactly the kind of engagement that helps build something better. Let me address everyone:
Cointxz, Orpichukwu, Ronsbit — you're absolutely right. The license needs to be visible and verifiable on the website, not just mentioned. We're working on getting that displayed prominently with full verification details. That's a fair and legitimate concern and we take it seriously.
Orpichukwu — noted on the two posts, I'll keep it to one thread going forward.
yahoo62278, Hispo, Don Pedro Dinero — you've raised the real question the lottery industry has never solved: trust + wait time + low win probability. You're right that instant casino games win on dopamine. What we're betting on is that there's still a market for people who want the big prize — but who have always been burned by not trusting the operator. On-chain verification doesn't fix the wait, but it removes the biggest reason people walk away: not knowing if the draw was real.
Nrcewker, davis196, cryptoaddictchie, coinrifft — the $5 ticket price feedback is noted from multiple people and we're taking it seriously. We'll be looking at lower entry options to bring more players in. On the website speed issue — thanks for flagging that, we're looking into the Brave browser compatibility.
danherbias07 — appreciate the kind words, thank you.
We're listening. Keep the feedback coming — this thread is exactly what we needed.
