New to bitsler.
Deposited nearly .5 btc.
After about 15 mins the sites down.
Been down now for a while. No updates anywhere. Forum also down.

Best $3600 gamble ever.

Why even bother to have a twitter if you don't update it?

EDIT:
So this is how you guys do it?
I get that it's early in the Philippines, but you can't even have a mod update the forum or twitter?
How about have visible open and closed business hours if this is how you choose to conduct your casino.

Not sure where you got the info that admins/owners are from Philippines(which certainly they are not), anyhow, I apologize for the inconvenience you just experienced. Bitsler admins and staffs are from different Time Zones and we try our best to update players. And as much as we want to stay online 24/7, with the current heavy ddos attack(been going on for a week now), Bitsler team decided to put down the servers to avoid any bad incident. As stated above, your coins are safe, and if the down time takes longer, Bitsler Team will manually refund your balance.

PS: Forum is up btw.

Even though its very unfortunate that your site is getting DDoS, in the past when Bitcoin sites and services have been getting DDoS its usually the healthy sign of a bull market.

Even Bitcointalk forum seems to get DDoS from time to time. The last time I can remember this happening was during the crazy bull run.

No idea why hackers pick times like this because in the end I don't think they actually gain anything. When Bitcoin was getting spam attacked back in Dec-Jan 2018 it was very damaging because many where mad at the $20-$50 they had to pay to get a single transaction confirmed. However I have no idea how hackers benefit when they DDoS a site like Bitsler or a forum like Bitcointalk.

'Hackers/Ddosers' actually can/do earn from this, If (just an if, not pointing to anyone) they are being paid to do the attack.
