Sad to see YOLOdice close down  Undecided
I never really gambled, but it was a good experience being a (BTC) investor since 2017. I'm excited to see what you end up coming up with when you return!

Here i wonder, is "one" of the reasons you want to suspend the site, the constant complaints / problems, with the high bitcoincoin core fees ?

if yes, why not abandon btc and continue the site with altcoins (ltc, doge, etc). from what i heard just-dice went this way and was successful with it by now (even though clam drops into the cellar, but thats more a coin problem, since it has no say in the cryptosphere).

greetings, whore-ray

I'm guessing the biggest reason is that Ethan wants to shut down is that he doesn't want to deal with the stress of making sure the balances of all investors (BTC bankroll alone was > 100 BTC, or roughly 5 million USD at current rates) are safe. Continuing with altcoins likely wouldn't solve that issue, especially since ETH & LTC are fairly major coins too.
You reminded me the sad story of Safe(!!!)Dice. The owner went missing and disappeared from the scenes and even left the game running: there was an automated wallet re-balance which made deposit and withdrawals still available under some certain thresholds. People kept playing and losing but some were able to get something out. (cold wallet went rogue...)
I once remember some safedicers called a YD a scam. History proved who were the real scammers.
Good luck Ethan and see you around!
