To prevent any speculations, I would like to make a public statement.

We are trying to start a legal case against James Volpe in Australia, consider the fact that some of his actions took place is 2015 it will take some time to gather all required information. I would say a lot of time. Our legal advisers also told me not to disclosed any information which can help James.

BitDice Casino S.L.R. seizes those funds because James broke rules 6 and 19 of BitDice Casino S.L.R. Terms Of Services. We will await AFP resolutions on how we should proceed with those funds, and we would be more than happy to use them to repay his victims.

I can't tell how much time it will take, but I hope we can put him behind the bars, there's enough evidence at least for several felonies. Unfortunately, there's not much I can tell right now, but I will try to keep this community up to date on our progress.

PS: Dooglus, can you please reply to my PM?

PPS: yulluxy, please contact with me: contact@bitdice.me, we can help you to recover your funds and you will be able to help our case against James.

Regards,
Alex.

Interesting situation here.

I have a suggestion:

To eliminate conflict of interest, I think Bitdice should make a pledge not to keep any of the bitcoin in question regardless of the outcome of your investigation.

Perhaps send them to an escrow (like dooglus?) and make the address public. The funds should not move from address until a decision is made.

I think it's essential in a situation like this (and in their best interest) for Bitdice to go above and beyond in being as transparent as possible. Don't set a bad precedent for other scummy casinos use this situation as an excuse to steal from players.

There's no need in escrow, I hold almost 3500BTC investors money and been here for like 3 years. You still do not trust me or think I will risk because of this scumbag?

However I will do track of funds that we are going to pay his victims, publicly. We also do our best to find other victims and make a class action lawsuit against James Volpe.

Regards,
Alex.

I think it's your responsibility to set an example for other casinos to follow. Scummy casinos love to do scummy things and then justify it by pointing out the actions of others in the industry. There's a conflict of interest here that can't be ignored. If Dooglus or Theymos or Satoshi himself were in Bitdices shoes right now, I would make the same argument.

Going above and beyond to be as transparent as possible can only help you and help the industry as a whole.
