I'm curious about something. On provably fair sites (particularly bitsler), does the time since the last bet effect the roll?

I'm thinking about using the manual betting option to compensate when the balance dries up. I.e. deposit more and then manually continue the betting sequence (my pattern increases bet on loss). But this might happen a few hours after the bot stopped, which is why I ask.

Time is never a factor in any provably fair game, because it is too easy to manipulate. The site could receive the bet, calculate the outcome and if it's not what they want, recalculate the bet for 1 millisecond later until it's the outcome they want and there would be no way to prove they cheated.

For nonce based sites, like bitsler, the moment you set your client seed and server seed, your rolls are determined until you reset your seed again. This does not give the site power to cheat at all. In fact it takes the power away from them, because they have no idea if you will be betting high or low, big or small, at which chance or for how many bets with that seed pair.

With per bet based sites, like 999dice, your roll is set the moment you decide on a client seed. Again, this removes control from the site, because the site can only pick a server seed and wait for your client seed (which is usually sent with the bet). They cannot change the server seed once they've received the bet, otherwise the hashes will differ. Again, the value of the client seed depends completely on the user or client and is not dependent on the time between bets.
