Not sure this is really decentralized though, not that I quite care at the moment. Everything I have invested into gambling is sort of centralized anyway.

Looks good by the way, just waiting to try other non-slot games in non-test mode.

Can this casino legitimately run without a license, because everything is running based on this DBET token?

Will you have an affiliate program as well?

Really interesting concept, just a few quick questions :

May you please explain in short words how to lock up the tokens in the house?
Also where will the eventual profit be sent to?
Lastly, if I got it correctly tokens locked up form the bankroll against which the bettors bet : so there is the chance that token holders may see their share becoming smaller in case of loss?

Sorry if I didn't read all the WP but please bear patience.

I have seen a number of so-called decentralized casinos now, but did not choose to join any ICOs properly due to my lack of understanding about how they all really work. I know from what I have seen is that they all seem to make a lot of money,,, except one or two like Moneypot which was famous but then lost a lot of money when players hit big.

The chance to lose by being the house is very small. But what if this also ends up like Moneypot?

I checked your site and can't find any road map and current development stage.

Do you have working software for sportsbetting?

I like the idea of sportbetting competition, but do you really expect to collect 357,000 ETH?! (357,000,000 DBET @ 1 ETH = 1000 DBET)

Hi DecentBet team,

I am glad I got in on my first transaction.
However I noticed around 30% of transactions running out of gas...
You could have provided better guidance.

Additionally I noticed that in the dashboard only recently the contract address is displayed after I already purchased the tokens. Are all the other participiants who sent eth whitelisted as well?

Immediately at ICO launch the counter showed a little over 4'000'000$. Where did they come from? They are not in the list of transactions on your contract address.

Thanks for clarifying.

All founders are still there, the one retard was kicked for being a rat and nothing else. Just a guy hired to do paper job.

Energolabs is first ICO on Qtum platform currently accepting btc and qtum token.


http://energolabs.com/#/ico/


Appear that in a few months of development, Qtum is ahead of Neo.  Neo will not have ICO on their platform until either end of 2017 or 2018.

Guys windows wallet gives me a virus warning ?

Announcing the winners of the Distributed 2017 Hackathon in St. Louis:




Winner of the $10,000.00 prize awarded in Qtum tokens:

D-REX (Built on Qtum Testnet)

Portions of this project received funding from the World Bank

Lead Developer: Dev Bharel


D-REX (Distributed Real-time Energy Exchange)

Abstract: Provide a marketplace for financiers and providers to issue and purchase electricity futures. By creating a market for microfinancing generation of electricity we can crowdfund infrastructure to provide electricity for the 1.5 billion people in the world currently without.

User Groups:

Consumers:

Consumers are the people interacting with the electric generators to receive electricity. They spend Solar Tokens using their mobile client (or SMS codes) at generators to pay for electricity in kilowatt hour chunks.
They can also create requests for solar generators in their region, detailing location, wattage usage, reason for electricty need, etc, which can be bid on by providers and funded by financiers.  


Providers:

Providers bid on requests from consumers. They provide bids detailing type of solar energy unit, cost of installation, time for installation, their insurance, etc.

(FUTURE) Need to be verified or have some reputation modeling or have some sort of insurance.


Insurers:

Planned for the future
Insure providers or financiers
Provide derivatives of energy futures. Sell part ownership of many utilities for n time.
Financiers:
Can be large institutions (Royal Bank of Scotland, Deutsche Bank, etc) or anyone with money. Can even be part or fully owned by the community itself.
Get the emotional payout of helping bring electricity to the underprivileged as well as the financial incentive into micro financing infrastructure.  


Specs:

Request:  {
   “Location”: STRING,
   “Creator”: STRING, //address of the owner who submitted the tx
   “WATTAGE_REQ”: INT,
   “REASON”: STRING
}

Bid: {
   “ProviderAddr”: STRING,
   “Unit_type”: STRING,
   “Cost_of_installation”: INT
}

Process:

Consumers make a request for a new generator. They list the location, wattage requirements, reason for request, etc.
Providers look through requests and bid on them. They include the type of generator, cost of installation, time for installation, insurance, etc. This bidding process is open for ONE WEEK. Consumers can then accept one of the bids, at which point...
Financiers bid on consumer accepted requests. This process is open for ONE MONTH. If the request is successfully funded a generator contract is created to represent the pending device.
The Financiers that own the the generator should all call the smart contract and submit their preferred cost for electricity the smart contract should charge. The price is the average of all submitted values weighted by the ownership stake each financier has. If no financier has submitted a price request, then the average is just 0 and the generator runs for free. If only some of the financiers have provided a price, it’s just the average of the ones provided. If you don’t vote, you don’t get a voice and must accept the price set by your co financiers.

The Provider that won the bid then installs the generator in the location specified.
The Consumer that issued the request than approves the installation by instantiating the generator by sending an initial token to it. The first tx MUST be by the Consumer that issued the request. After initialization, the generator can be funded by anyone and used by anyone.

Consumers can then fund the generator get electricity. They pay in solar tokens which are then disbursed to financiers proportionate to their ownership stake in the generator. Consumers can buy these solar tokens from exchanges.
Financiers make money by selling their solar tokens on exchanges to anyone who wants to buy. Solar tokens have a consumptive value on the platform, not just a speculative value, so there’s always a demand.



Tech:

Contracts:

Solar Tokens: ERC 20 token contract. ICO a limited supply of x million .
MarketPlace (split into two sections):
New Generators: Consumers make requests with the given metadata (location, wattage, reason for request, etc). Request is bid on and then awarded.
Old Generators: Financiers can sell all or part of their ownership of their generators or even market futures and based on the generators ownerships they own.

Generators:

Each generator is it’s own smart contract. Issues 10,000 (100.00%) ownership tokens at inception based on proportionate financing.
GetAvg(): read only function that returns the average price of what the generator should charge for electricity.
Status pending until first tx which needs to be done by Consumer who created the initial request.
(Future) Funds set aside for maintenance / some catch for it.  

Stack:

Flask Microservice to interact with Qtum RPC
React front end for UI




Interesting Points:

Very interesting use case for trusted execution environments. Only the solar generator should be able to make its transactions, someone shouldn’t be able to mess with it.
Smart Contracts built with generic “Utility Model”. Crowdfunding electricity now, but could crowdfund any utility (Water Mill, Textile Machines, etc…)
Providers can have radically different ways units and reputation. There should be a insurer for

Did you not read the fine print? You can't withdraw till September, though I don't know why you want to withdraw since Qtum is registered as a charity and they've clearly stated on several occasions the tokens are not be considered an investment vehicle. Team Qtum is building their thingy for the betterment of crypto and not interested one iota in lining their pocketbook. Hey, rumor has it that EOS is still looking for some Investard moneys. Check 'em out and report back here once you've donated to their cause as well. Sadly, you may have missed the window of opportunity to invest in ShinCoin by Jeff Ownby, formerly of BFL, but there's always next time.

He can't ever admit he makes mistakes.  Currently in his view the entire community is wrong on every account and he is perfect.

Bizarrely, the developer and his wife also believe this.

Spot the elephant in the room.

I resigned from the Board as this seemed like it would never change.

It is quite an interesting psychological case study.  Particularly when the success of the project would mean a lot of money for him, how the ego takes over.

Some do want a refund, some do not, but everyone must have a choice and if for whatever reason they do note provide token holders that they are done.

To be fair to those who sent to the fake address.  It was published on the official site and they didn't want to miss out on the ICO since many have sold out in minutes.  

A solution that might still save this project is to offer 2 options for investors.  
1.  Offer refunds for those on the whitelist first and if there are remaining ETHs left, offer those who sent to the fake address.
2.  Increase the amount of CDT for all those who want to keep their investments.  Use the tokens that were refunded and give those who still
     want to support the project an additional bonus.

The team may end up with zero ETHs from this and more CDTs, but if they truly believe in their own project and work hard for it's success, those additional CDT's will pay off.  Look at projects like Stratis for example.  Turned pennies into dollars.

The devs will refund them since the devs have their ETH not the hacker. If they don't then that's just sketchy as fuck
