What happened::

Last week I was given restricted access to housebets.io which means I have access to nothing including withdraws. Here is what I know. Housebets.io had a bug that essentially "due to the decimal places in BTC not being enough it rounded $0.01 & $0.02 spins to 0". That is quoted straight from the mod in telegram (porchy). My chat is still up in the housebets/lunafi telegram chat and you can see for yourself, although it has been highly modified and dozens of comments from users were deleted. Because of this bug he says I was gambling risk free and that I should be happy that I withdrew prior to my account being frozen. Just so were clear I was making bets in between $1.00-$2.00 US. That means if I bet $2.00 and I won nothing im only losing $1.98, and because of this bug which I will admit I did notice and think it was peculiar, but in no way did that $0.02 change the outcome of what was going to happen. I know my wife was banned and she had a pretty significant withdraw that she submitted but it never processed. Saw a few others in the telegram that were quickly muted that this had happened too. I'm very upset about this because i had no intentions what so ever to exploit a bug, which quite frankly doesn't even matter because they made the mistake of opening an online casino without some kind of a third party audit or any beta testing.

Additional notes:
My telegram (CB) chat was with the mod of the telegram channel (porchy) and I was quickly muted.
P.S. I had to create this scam report using just a mobile phone because my laptop is down at the moment
My apologies for the way it looks

Butternuts have made serious complaints about our platform and we immediately started to better understand what happened.

The truth is, he found one exploit where very small BTC spins (0.01 & 0.02C) were credited regardless if the bet was won or lost. This meant that there was no risk, and of course this is not gambling. Knowing this, he used the exploit to be profitable and didn't bring the situation to us at any moment.

So he deposited just under $40 to this address. 3CJdqdsS4h8W78fkJrQ16d1EcBnrxraLUb and withdrew over $600 profit from the exploit.

These are the screenshots of his withdrawals and total bets:
