with CrowdDice.com there would never be such a problem, you'll never play against the house, but against other players
bad luck for 1DiCe1 and investors
Same at ED. You weren't playing against the site, you were playing against the investors. The site made a profit from every bet, just like you do on your site.
It's much the same. You could decide to run off with player funds at any time, since you hold them which the bets are pending.
It is , and will always be that way. Owners dont give any info on them , and run anonymous, so every one of them can eventualy decide to run with thevmoney, and dont have any problems. Thatvis just nature of bitcoin, u can accept it, and love it, or look elsewhere. As long as there is no laws about bitcoin gambling and casinos, we can only rely on trust.
