Due to huge fees that bitcoin needs at this moment we had to raise minimum withdrawal amount to 0.004 btc and fee to 0.0003 btc.
We were covering majority of the fee needed and it cost us substantial amount of money every day.
Minimum withdrawal is 0.004 btc and fee is 0.0003 btc.
What a load of crap.
? Are you serious? That's a very generous condition. You do realize that since most medium transactions are around 300 Bytes and the average fee these days is 200 Sats/byte then the withdraw fee of 0.0003BTC is mostly made at a loss to PrimeDice, especially if they have more than 1 input.
0.004 BTC is also fair. You shouldn't be withdrawing less than 0.004 BTC anyways, because most of your withdraw goes to fees alone.
Blame Segwit not being activated. Not Primedice.
Dead serious. It's bullshit.
Most current wallets let you specify the fee. Besides a gambling dice site, Primedice is also a wallet for every user that deposits/withdraws. And now, after being behind in many aspects (having one of the slowest betting engines, an outdated look, a shit chat and useless support service), PD is again fixing their shit regardless of users and user experience. Certainly easier to fucking raise the fees than to pay a dev for some custom code.
It's seems there's an adoration of PD in this thread. What the fuck do I care. Just being critical when it's deserved so. And right now, this is the largest load of crap they could implement.
If we let users chose a fee they would mostly chose to small fee.
Or you would have to chose bigger fee and pay for it in full.
This way we are still covering for the fee most of the time and it ends up costing us close to 700$ per day just on fees.
It is the best possible outcome for the users not for us.
But it is the most convenient for the users and we chose to do it that way.
