I think you are criticising a valid business model as if it were somehow a negative. Theres some business risk by the company to operate but they have been around a while and I see no reason to assume they are negative in serving customers. It doesnt resemble a pyramid scheme. Depositing your crypto anywhere has a risk attached to it but its a flat consideration to using every site isnt it
He's criticising it because he's too thick to understand why a casino would incentivise its customers to deposit. He just keeps repeating the same verbal diarrhoea no matter how many times his stupidity is pointed out to him. He obviously is also completely ignorant as to what a pyramid scheme is. It's not worth the effort of explaining it to him again because he doesn't have the basic cognitive functions required to comprehend the answers given to him. Casinos obviously need to have large sums available to payout to big winners. Over time it all evens out as others will lose but a high roller can make a tempory impact. Comparing that to a pyramid scheme really shows a level of ignorance that is outstanding. It makes me wonder how someone could be so lacking in self-awareness to continually make such a dick of themselves in public by talking about subjects they have no knowledge of without feeling any embarrassment.
You're right about the risks involved in depositing at any Bitcoin site. Reputations are built up over time and we've been going nearly 5 years now so people will judge us on our actions over that time.
Its in googles own interest to make sure people viewing sites connected to them are humans so that advertising is valid. Its heavily destructive to their business model if the page traffic is artificial and there is no consumer behind the screen viewing advertising google might supply. Or even if not direct advertising, google still wants to know the entity they are tracking is a human not a bot so thats a big incentive to them to discourage that kind of activity. Obviously FreeBitco doesnt want bots harvesting easy money either. Its only twitter or twitch I see people actively chasing and paying for bot usage to create an illusion of greater influence then they actually have
For sites that carry advertising that is another reason for Google to provide reCAPTCHA for free as well as the data harvesting.
For us, it imposes a cost on the botnets. They either pay catcha solve services currently charging around $1 per 1000 solves or run their own solvers. That's a very resource intensive activity so a similar cost is involved. That cost is really the limiting factor in how much we can give per roll to free players.
We can give far higher rewards to players that deposit and play for obvious reasons.
