Wow, what a reason for deciding to increase the rate to 5%...
Hopefully you don't know people that scam other people, so you won't decide to do the same because they told you it is a very common approach and should be replicated.. or
Hopefully you don't know people that dislike your site and told you to close it and disappear.. or
.. you got the idea.
I am more comfortable with 5% than 1%.
Just saying. It means a bigger incentive for dooglus to be honest and not run away with invested coins.
I'm more comfortable with 5% too. I've been working 20 hour days on the site since launch, and earning approximately nothing in return. I'm used to working for other people, and earning significantly more than that. Now I'm working for myself and not even covering expenses?
If it becomes apparently that 5% is stupidly high, then I'll reduce it again.
Wouldn't be better to increase the house edge then ? 1% might be nice for the players, but maybe not so nice for the investors. This is likely to increase the amount of BTC invested, allowing for a greater max profit, maybe attracting more distinct players, and in the end more profit for you.
