I'm glad all of the shill accounts for SatoshiDice came out. Do you think people can't tell that all of these newbie accounts coming out of nowhere to defend a shitty gambling site are genuine players?

Honestly why do people play/invest here...

Investors:
They consistently are one of the lower volume casinos out there that accept public funds (stats according to https://dicesites.com/satoshidice), and they have a giant bankroll. What this means is you are getting a tiny return.

I'll explain it this way:

They average under 100 BTC per day in wagered volume, yet they have a whopping 4000+ BTC bankroll. Lets do some quick math: 100BTC (daily wagered) * 1.9% (house edge) = 1.9 BTC expected return. Say you have 1 BTC invested, that means your expected return is 0.0475% daily... And that doesn't even include fees!

They average well under 100,000 bets per day. This means they don't have many players. Most of their competitors are in the millions daily (# of bets). This signifies an over reliance on key larger players.

Players:
Terrible customer support, slow bets, and slow withdrawals. Yikes. And 1.9% House edge? That's nearly double the industry standard!

I had those 100btc on their site and i had an average of 3.5-4.5% a month, everyday 0.1btc was added like clockwork with some spikes here and there... and the site had 5000+ btc then

You are lying.

100/5000 = 2% (your share of the bankroll)
You are claiming your 2% stake earned 3.5-4.5 BTC monthly.

I will even give you the benefit of the doubt and say SatoshiDice did 5000 BTC volume (which: they didn't. I am being very generous saying 5k monthly wagered).

5000 * 0.019 = 95 BTC Profit (Before fees)
95 *0.02 = 1.9 BTC increase

You are claiming you earned twice as much as you did (again... not even including fees). Cut the bullshit.

And to all of those saying the # of bets don't matter... They do and they don't. What it signifies is that SatoshiDice has a very, very small userbase. 50k Bets is accomplished in under an hour on most sites. The only reason SatoshiDice is even in the middle of the pack as far as wagered volume goes is because the occasional whale drops by. The fact is SatoshiDice has a declining customer base. Not surprising considering their huge house edge.

Investors make money on sites profit not wagered , their profit is above EV

And as mentioned before, the slot game wagers are not included in the statistics that dicesites.com is posting.
