Dooglus used clams in just dice because of regulations issues, one can't open a bitcoin casino in Canada because of the regulations, but nothing is said about clams.

Did Dooglus say that himself? There is no fundamental difference between bitcoin and clam or any other crypto currencies.

I don't think dooglus has said that literally, but feel free to CMIIW. The official reasons for doog to reopen JD using clam can be found in this long post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=238613.msg9772760#msg9772760.

I considered relaunching with testnet coins, but figured it would increase the demand for testnet coins and interfere with their intended purpose of being readily available and testing BTC. CLAM seems like an ideal candidate since everyone who had any funded BTC, LTC, or DOGE addresses in May of this year already has some CLAM.

So why was this reopened with CLAM? Why wasn't the reopening announced? Why add only CLAM and not BTC?

CLAM is cheap, and widely distributed. It's easy to get hold of, and many people already have it. BTC is expensive and an easy target for thieves. I didn't announce the reopening because I wanted a small, self-selected crowd to test it. There have been a small but loyal bunch of people hanging around the site ever since it shut down. It makes sense that they would be the most tolerant of the frequent restarts and even bugs that were likely to be part and parcel of the switch over to CLAM.

But of course we all know JD was shut down because of the regulation issues (http://just-dice.blogspot.com/2014/06/betting-and-depositing-disabled-on-jd.html).

Well, Duglus chose just dice also because he controls a large majority of clams. Grin

I blame him for the recent price drop of clams...
