Regarding the allegation made that Dean Nolan from betking owed 2 BTC for outstanding licence fees: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4751127.msg47317090#msg47317090

betking was listed here in the scammer list: https://www.bustabit.com/license.txt as "Sites that are violating the terms of bustabit's open source license and should not be considered trustworthy"

A couple of days after the allegation was made in the thread, betking was removed from the scammer list.

You mentioned you have no dispute with Dean Nolan or betking but were you or Bustabit or Bustadice in dispute before that post was made, say last week, last month or ever?

Did Dean Nolan or betking recently make a payment to get betking removed from the licence.txt page?

When and why was betking added to the list in the first place and why was it removed from that list a couple of days ago?

Thank you

BetKing launched its crash game using bustabit's source code without complying with its open source license or having purchased a paid license from bustabit. That's why I added betking.io to the list of sites pirating bustabit's software. After about ten days Dean finally took the game offline, so I removed it from the list again. Now it looks like he's relaunched the game still using slightly obfuscated bustabit code, but I'm not sure pursuing it is worth all the potential drama.


I am not too familiar with the background to this website and the game but it seems from your post that bustabit was originally owned by somebody else then was purchased by the OP.

Please can somebody confirm

I acquired bustabit in January of this year from Ryan, its previous owner.

Thank you devans, I appreciate the post.

I had some pieces of the jigsaw but not all of them so was reading between the lines. Your post sheds a lot of light on the curiosity I had.

With regards to Bustabit and Bustadice, I wish you success in your projects. Both seem to have a good reputation so I hope you do well with regards to your efforts.

Thank you
