Had we not known Mark Karpeles' information matters would be much, much worse.
Agree. But what I want to say is that knowing the owners' info may help a bit in gaining trust, but the effect won't be enough IMO.
On the other hand, having doog control (or co-control) the server seeds and cold wallet could work IMO.
Yet that defeats the purpose of gaining trust or even setting up a gambling site if a reputable member comes in and pretty much takes over (sever seeds and cold wallet funds are the things which show ownership and control). Actually, involving dooglus just makes him run another gambling site, instead of Sam.Walton runnning a new one.
Yup you are right. Maybe you could even call the site JD 2 then.
I guess it depends on what OP wants.
If he wants to make himself and his site trusted, it will be a slow and costly process.
If he simply wants to make his site trusted and earn some bitcoin through running it, partnering with a trusted bitcoiner (and sharing part of the site profit) could be a much easier and faster way to do it.
