Re: BetterBets.io |Secure & Trusted|Weekly Rake+VIP|DICE★PLINKO★HORSE RACING
Bjorn what does sale of moneypot mean for Betterbets is changes or will remain same? I invest in moneypot as it is only way to invest in Betterbets so I invest in your casino in this fashion. Do you plan to sell? PM me if this info not public I can evaluation investment.
I'd like to know how this all affects BB as well. Changing ownership can be a huge deal, both BB and elsewhere.
Only betterbets and some other sites at the featured app tab. The other is just clone of untitled dice so they should not be affected too much because of this change of ownership
But they have to trust the new management. Ryan has proven himself. Getting someone else with the same track record won't be easy.
Pretty much this. Ryan has proven himself to be fair and honest over the course of a long time. It will be hard for the new owner to follow his footsteps and it will also be hard for the investors and players to trust the new owner(unless it is someone who is already known)
The good thing is the notification time is pretty long and allows the players, investors and app owners to think about different options.
I really hope that nothing changes with BB as i enjoy playing there from time to time.
I'm sort of hoping someone like Dooglus comes along to take it (though I doubt it since he doesn't really deal with BTC gambling anymore). Or maybe CBTC.
When 'espringe' (Eric S.) sold MoneyPot (now named BustaBit) to Ryan in Oct. 2014, it prodded Dooglus to finally give in to all the requests from fans/friends for him to re-open Just-Dice. I think this is when they did the CLAM altcoin project, and encourage investors & players to use JD w/ Clams instead of BTC.
Since then, Doog has indeed been 'dealing w/ BTC gambling anymore' since he remains the Just-Dice owner. He even made an appearance on BustaBit chat lately, which surprised me - a legend from the 'Eric days' ;p Idk who 'CBTC' is.
The thing w/ Ryan is though he is absolutely the best owner that could've happened to both MP, BaB, & now PPot - MoneyPot's utility to fledgling, inexperienced, lazy (lol - I'm the worst ;p) app developers is a true miracle which I appreciate daily - he does suffer from what I affectionately call 'lazyilitis', causing him to spend some time every few months or so, trying to lighten his workload & free up his daily time from all the administrative, business/marketing, & security work from his gambling projects.
Now, this periodic effort, I think, kinda tends to be more for 'self-appeasing' purposes than a 'genuinely realistic' expectation of finding an outstanding buyer whose skills, background & outlook are formidable enough to let Ryan responsibly change ownership.
So, /tease (LOL) - very sorry Ryan, but, just as happened w/ the 'BustaBit is for Sale!' auction a little while ago, I fully place my bet on no prospective buyer showing up w/ enough IT/Gambling 'mettle' to take over this time neither ;3
CBTC is "CasinoBitco.in" and I agree with a lot of what you've said. I have knowledge of a lot of this stuff but not the security aspect, sadly.
Partner up w/ an IT-security/network infrastructure/programming type, or are you worried about trusting them w/ 'keys to the site'..?
Trust is a huge issue -- especially in a pseudo-anonymous system. It's hard to put your reputation on the line when someone else scamming automatically makes you the scammer, despite having no control over it,
.As with any business online or not, before BetterBets.io, Lobos and I had years of previous work together on various projects to build the rapport and trust needed. It takes time and "proof of work" ie: can you do the job you state you can
Good luck this week everyone I think having 2 of the 6 winners for the raffle will help break up the month and make it more exciting. If you haven't played at BetterBets yet we have so far 3 fun games, a huge rake system, Luck Forging (alter your own house edge similar to a powerup in video games), and of course the raffle ticket bonus. So if you are currently playing at another dice site, and your only gain is a win or loss I suggest you make the jump over here and at least have the chance to make some extra. We could really use some chatters to help us build a larger community too.
I am actively creating a new bonus it is much more involved than anything I have attempted yet, it requires me to work with multiple people and teams to make it amazing for players and investors alike. I want to just tell everyone how important 3 things are for this:
1. Secure your moneypot accounts, with a good password and 2FA if possible.
2. One of my worries for this bonus is people will say things like "we didn't get enough notice" well I have mentioned this many times so far please make sure you have bet at least 1 BTC volume.
3. Every BTC wagered here and possibly at Poloniex.com (depending on my conversation with Tristan) will unlock more of this bonus for everyone.
