I assume the 1.6k btc user savings includes wetsuits stash that he's willing to give up to the cause before giving up and turning the servers off?
No. The user savings are not the bankroll. The bankroll wetsuit has is adequate for maximum win per bet of 20 BTC. Certainly more so than those sites that use leveraged investments.
That's why Quin disables/ bans those who simply claim and not wager because there are no advertisements on the site. Or else how's he gonna pay the bills and punters?
I don't. We allow people to just use the faucet if they want. That is one thing that distinguishes us from other gambling sites. I only ban people for abuse by multi-accounting and self-referring.
