If you guys want to bet/trade with a legit 60 second option broker go to http://satoshioption.com. They might not be on bitcointalk vary much but the site has always paid me over the last 12 months Pro's 100% anonymous Onsite wallet Been paying for more than a year Money forgotten in a onsite wallet is automatically sent back to the sending address after 3 days of inactivity Con's Markets sometimes turn off/on Deposits need 1 confirmation Low payout for btc/usd compared to forex pairs/gold/silver Satoshi Option also runs a option exchange for btc/usd more similar to normal options instead of binary. I haven't personally tried that portion of the site yet though so no feedback. Alternatively beastoption runs on professional binary option trading software which is pretty much the same as any usd/eur/gbp based binary broker. They also offer longer timeframe of 1m to 1h. We've had a lot of discussions about onsite wallet, but we want to secure client's money as much as possible, and best way to do so is not to store client's money. As many people have stated it's also the best way to prolong the bet by x amount of time. With a 60 second option even 1 second delay (never mine 50-100%) is enough to tip the scales from profit to loss. Which is why I only play where onsite wallets are available. Hope this delays will be smaller after upcoming infrastructure update, and we're still discussing onsite wallets for hardcore players who wants no delay in bets processing. Thank you for your feedback.

Both of the transactions you provided above are processed without any errors. Processing status will be shown until we will get first confirmation, that may take pretty much time sometimes. (1) My orders have been processed many times without this 1 confirmation requirement. (2) This rule is not shown ahead of time and is entirely unreasonable. How can I possibly predict when the next block will come, let alone the price of gold at that time? Before we was trying to work without transactions confirmation but as well as many other providers was been affected by doublespend fraud. You get it wrong. We're waiting for confirmation only to provide payout and avoid doublespend. It doesn't affect the time of bet realisation.

Your bets was been processed in 60 seconds right after it was been made, as I can see in our backoffice, as an example let's take first transaction you provided above. You bet on gold price fall from 1293.69000 at 2014-07-15 22:29:32 utc, 60 seconds after, at 22:30:32 gold price was 1293.70000, so this bet was wrong and you loose.

Minimal bets are still a donation. We just plan to return transactions that are below minimum, but not implemented it yet.

I request my money back. I never specified I wish to donate. It is your companies requirement to specify and make sure people are understanding the minimum bet principle; otherwise you will be called scammers.

Seems like you won't be able to receive a refund. I hope you enjoyed donating to the site owner. :/ Minimal bets are still a donation.

Website = Scam. He is paying people out in his signature campaign (some people), but completely ignoring other issues. His trust is going up because of signatures which is completely ignoring the shady nature of his site.

That's not what he says in the first post. What is your limits for a single bet, what will be happened with my bet if it's amount is beyond the limits? — Min bet is 0.01, max bet is 0.3, bets that are not withtin this limits will be returned to senders with miners fee deducted If he wants to run a long-term business instead of scamming a few people for <$5, it is in his interest to honour his word. I believe the website is still in development and subject to glitches. I reported 2 of them here: transaction went into "Processing..." instead of closing after 60s (you can check the time logs, it is a bet I should have won) and bet below minimum is not being returned (you can check the blockchain) If the owner accepts to refund, he will prove beyond doubt that his website is not a scam. If not, I lost $10 and life goes on

Yeah. He said that refunds would be sent out soon (Quoting me). He is flip-flopping on his word. He needs to start paying attention to this thread and responding. I'm surprised his website/company/business has lasted as long as it has with the ethics (or lack thereof) and business approach he has taken.

IMO, Updown hasn't done the best job in communicating with the users, as he has spent too little time on bitcointalk. For example, he hasn't been online since July 18...

I am sure a lot of people knows this already, but UpDown.bt is a scam. It is also connected to the hacking of MtGox.
Be careful.

This question has been asked again and again since the beginning, and OP never answered it... I'd like to suggest some improvements: 3rd) Showing the feed source for each type of bet may help proving that this game is (almost) provably fair;
3) We're not disclosing a source for the financial feeds and never plan to.

So in shorts words, they invent the data and they can manipulate it.
