To celebrate being #1 wagered bitcoin casino of the week, I've increased the faucet by 50%

-image-

Now every hour is happy hour, with up to a free 3 bits!  

Their reactions tho xD. It still says "You('ll) are/be eligible for 2 bits! (in 60 minutes)", might want to fix that up. In my opinion, the faucet claim is still too small; you should change it to 3 bits every 10 minutes if the account has no balance, to give new players a better experience

Thanks, i'll fix that.

Seeing that his total net profit is now only 60.8 btc, it seems he has lost 45 btc back in the past few hours.

Yeah,   Note to self: Next time use screenshots, not hyperlinks.

3bits is really bad faucet (when you can claim it once per hour) hehe

Comnpletely disagree with you...taking in consideration that on BaB you can claim those free bits even if your balance is not zero as it happens on all bitcoin gambling site I am able to remember at the moment.

Since when was the withdrawal fee for bustabit 200 bits? (It used to be 100 bits, didn't it?)

Anyway, I'd just like to say that's the third time I've lost big on bustabit on going all-in to make up for the withdrawal fee, this time going for a 1.01x.
(And guess what happened? A 0.00x came along! Hello, Murphy's law.) Ryan, you're so evil!  (It's not entirely your fault, I was a bit greedy)

I feel like it's always been 200 bits, but I may be wrong on that. A few other sites I gamble on also have a 20k satoshi withdrawal fee, so it seems like maybe more sites have maybe increased to supply higher transaction fees?

Old member here to say until recently it was 100, but more expensive transactions made him change it

Transaction fee has changed? I just played like a week ago and the fee was only 100 bits.
I was playing since last year and it has always been 100 bits.
I didn't know it has changed today?

[Mist]

Yep you read correctly, now stop spamming for 777coin. Bustabits 100 withdraw fee is 200 now.

It was changed on Feb 06, how time flies

Because we get a lot more deposits than withdrawals, our withdrawals tend to need to source a lot of inputs, which makes them big and expensive. Our average cost for a withdrawal is well over 100 bits (and I've seen a couple over 8000 bits). Once segwit is out, I can move to using segwit addresses, which will make spending from them considerably expensive.

One alternative would be to to add a "Deposit" fee of like 20 bits, and ~40 bits for a withdrawal. It would best reflect our costs, and probably the most fair; but I don't really want to field support from hundreds of users complaining about their missing 20 bits from deposits =)

That issue can be fixed very easily though. Just shove big red text somewhere warning them about that, several languages whole 9 yards.

[RHavar]

Please be careful as there is a bit more lag/latency than usual, and it's important that you always set a sane "auto cash out" (which happens server side). bustabit is being hit by an aggressive DDoS campaign, and some of the counter-measures required are causing a few problems

Hopefully they'll get bored soon, and I can step them down =)

Hi:

I need some help in custom bustabit code.

I have this in my code to identify the required step for every lose just like this:

Code:

        if(lossStreak==1){
            cashout = 1.27;
            bet *= 4;
        }
        if(lossStreak==2){
            cashout = 1.33;
            bet *= 4;
        }
		if(lossStreak==3){
            cashout = 1.35;
            bet *= 4;
        }
		if(lossStreak==4){
            cashout = 1.35;
            bet *= 4;
        }
		if(lossStreak==5){
            cashout = 1.35;
            bet *= 4;
        }

The list of IF is long , so i need some way to make this:

If loss streak from 1-5 do this....
If  loss strike from 6-10 do this...
If loss strike from 11-15 do this...

.... etc.

I mean how to edit this line:

Code:

if(lossStreak==1)

to include loss streak from number x to number y?

Thanks.

Just withdraw and because of the large fee added I got it confirmed when the next block was found. THANKS!!!!

Glad to hear. Yeah, the current fees are starting to become pretty painful. For perspective, the last few withdrawals we processed had average of ~615 bits of fees (as determined by bitcoin-core's default dynamic fees), or about 21 cents. It's probably higher than most users due to our wallet receiving a lot more transactions than sending (but I suspect quite typical in any merchant-type situation). For now we'll continue to subsidize withdrawal fees but hopefully things rapidly improve. I think today I had over 10 support emails from people who's deposits aren't confirming.

The whole situation is pretty disappointing on multiple levels, I really hope bitcoin can get its act together.

[Mist]

I had to wait for 12 confirms the other day, and xDeathwing had to wait like 18. No idea what's going on with the blockchain but it needs to hurry up :p

What's the site that tracks BustaBit's profit over time?

I'm talking the one with the daily, monthly, cummulative profit, bets, etc.

[Mist]

What's the site that tracks BustaBit's profit over time?

I didn't realize that was a site, I'm sure you know bsutabit.com/stats but that's just current stuff.

Is it steve/kungfuant related or a private site?

[wormat22]

It's a general BTC casino tracking site, it just happens to feature BustaBit.

Oh, well then I have no idea. Does it feature reviews or does it just do tracking?
