Guys ...are you really going to complain about the little bit extra that you received for your Weekly Bonus now? Most of us has been getting less, since they changed the way that the bonus is calculated.. so a little boost like this.. is welcomed.

My Weekly was bumped with a very small amount, but my losses for the week was much worst than any previous weeks, so I guess the new calculations worked in my favor this time. Cheesy

My Weekly Bonus based on current calculations is up to $30 but a few weeks ago it wasn't that great at only $20. So I also still don't really understand how to calculate the bonus. If it's based on weekly allocations it might be quite reasonable if what you get will vary.

I never get in this act of calculating how much bonus should i get or how the bonus s calculated as it will only make me confuse. I think most of us really don't know the exact formula for the bonus calculation.
I just love to play with this free money and it is indeed good from stake that they give us bonus periodically.

I understand that some people may like to know exactly how the bonuses are distributed but I think there are several reasons why this is a bad idea, to begin with it is way more fun if you do not know exactly how much you are going to get, if you knew then there will not be any mystery to it and the whole process will be more boring, which is I suppose something gamblers do not want to experience, and the second reason has to do with avoiding people from trying to play the system and obtain a bonus bigger than what they otherwise deserve.

I have one more view to this if the formula became so easy to predict then wouldn’t the bad user’s try to game it, and if they were caught then they would complain that Stake is unfair hence I feel that it’s best if no one knows how to calculate it.

With the race nearly done, there are indeed big bets being placed so to rank up in the standings.
While doing a few rounds on crash I had seen a platinum 6 player wagering 130eth per round while I was there.
The thing landed on under 1.20x all those rounds but the player raised his wager amount up to 300eth every round until I left

I have also seen the bets of that whale, he was betting 65 to 130 ETH in crash game, but he was losing most of his bets. He had reached to the diamond rank when I was watching his bets. I have wagered $332k in a month and got 2469th position in the race. The whale wagered more than my monthly wagered amount in just two minutes Roll Eyes

.

Whales betting more than our entire savings is common, I have watched a guy wagering 12000 bitcoin in a single day once, and not like this was during when bitcoin was low neither, this was when bitcoin was at around 10k dollars, which means that 12000 bitcoin wagering was around 120 million dollars give or take, and he lost about 300 bitcoins total as well, so that was about 3 million dollars and he stopped.

This dude wagered my entire balance in a single bet, he wagered about 1 bitcoin per bet give or take ,some times even more, sometimes a little less, and I never had that much money before, and this guy was doing it per bet. It is cool to watch those things, I feel jealous a bit but also love watching them.

@wiss19 it’s become quite normal to see whales on Stake, but challenging them or trying to replicate them is a bad idea and this is from my initial early day’s gambling experience that one should always stick to his own limits, and not get influenced by these whale’s actions.
