because he doesn't TRUST other people with ACCESS to SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS of SITE USERS' FUNDS)[/i] :
You're right on this one.
That's a personal thing that he wants to do and can't entrust this duty to anyone with the funds. The solution to avoid the drying of the hot wallet is to give this duty to anyone he trusts when he's out and can't fulfill it when the hot wallet is about to become empty.
maybe lets accept the fact that those casino he owns are already dying?
There are still plenty of players that are active so I don't think it's dying. It's just about maintaining the hot wallet before it dries out of funds.
There are still many players playing you just have to look at the stat and the flow of traffic still doing good, if it's closing Lightlord will just announce it here Bitvest and 777COIN are not yet dying they don't even look dying, not focusing on promoting does not mean that the site is dying we have not seen many complaints that they are not paying there's a delay but they always fix it, and it never escalate to scam reports.
