Would you consider investing in a bankroll?
by

What's up guys  Smiley

I'm currently deep in the process of creating a new bitcoin gambling website.
In the last time I was thinking about letting people invest in the bankroll, so that I can offer higher max bet returns early in the process of evolving.  Wink

But how many of you would actually consider investing into the house pot?
And what could I offer to the people to gain their trust? I guess many are afraid to invest since often people simply run off - or not?

Take the following as 'case' while you think about this questions:

- The Website has a single game to play, it's innovative and the only of its kind available. You believe it could become quite addicting in the community.
- The Design and overall feeling is nice.
- The creators are available for everyones questions, they take their time to interact with people
- The house also has a decent pot without investors - the website doesn't rely on investments.
- Provably Fair, Multifactor Login, Faucet, Chat, Achievements, API, SSL [...] - It's clear the creators are trying to start a business rather than scam.
- 1% House edge will be split between the investors (depending on their invested value).

I'm quite excited to see the results. Smiley

Whats up guys. Smiley

As stated in my last post I'm currently developing a new gambling website. Wink
I got a few fine bankroll deals so I'm wondering what amount would be reasonable to make sure I can pay at any given time. Smiley
Anyone got ideas, suggestions or even experiences that would be helpful to share? Cheesy

always worth to try , nothing business have a free-risk. so far i didn't yet see there is bitcoin gambling site closed due to bankruptcy or something similar. most of them in profit especially a -EV games , no wonder there is very few games based on player vs player , would you take this challenge? to open a PvP game like PvP blackjack? goodluck btw.

If this works out in a way that I can actually call my earnings or general gain noteworthy then I would be happy to further improve and extend the whole site. Smiley
There are many things I'd like to code. Wink

Just by reading your post it sounds like it should be profitable even with a small house edge as long as you set a minimum max profit/payout to reduce damage to the house/bankroll. I want to know when do you plan to launch your casino? I'm interested in playing new games.

I definitely plan to launch the website as fast as possible! Sadly I can't estimate the time it will take at all. I'm dealing with a few things which are new to me and since I've never had to deal with them I don't know what expects me Grin Stuff like setting up fullnodes and getting them to interact, even under pressure. Or getting all the security measurements for transactions and the server itself done. Wink
I hope to have everything done within the next few months. Smiley

If you feel that your gambling site able to compete , why not ?
Bitcoin gambling industry that love lasting still have low amount compare real life gambling industry. Just make sure that you can hire the honest and great people to handle since my experience taught me, good gambling site doesn't guarantee that they can long lasting instead they scam in the end

For now I don't think I need to hire anyone. Grin
What exactly do you mean with scamming? In the games itself? Because that's what I'm going eliminate with 'Provably Fair' Smiley

I'm sure operating a bitcoin gambling site is very profitable but unless you're a very early adopter it's probably too late for you now unless you have a lot of money.

You're going to have to be able to afford to pay every users wins, if they win big can you pay them?
There are a few ways for me to handle big wins, the most brutal one would be to sign a contract with the company I work at, basicly partner them, I'll probably decide when the website is near to be done. Smiley

I think this will depend on your skills and the money you have to invest in the business. If you have few programming and website design skills, you will probably have to hire more people who can help you, and this will increase the cost. If you already have good skills, this can lower costs, but it is important to consider expenses with marketing.

As stated before I don't plan to hire anyone, this will be a one-man job. Wink
I'm coding Websites for about 6-7 years now, mostly backend tho, so the frontend will probably take a little longer. Cheesy
The marketing will be something I will also take a look at later, I have some plans already. Smiley

Sure, that would be nice im quiet interested on this one since you said its a catchy game that cant be found in the market which is really a catchy thing for me.
I will wait for the launching of this gambling site and hope wont break peoples expectations here  Cheesy


Haha, I'll give me best to deliver a high quality result, I promise.  Wink
As soon as I got something useable I'll visit this thread and PM you guys. Smiley

Operating a btc gambling site is worth it as the house wins more than it loses. However, you need to have a large capital to bankroll in case some btc whales get lucky and win some of your btc. You don't want to face a situation when nobody is able to withdraw because of lack of btc. I am tired of seeing all the dice sites sprouting up and it would be refreshing to have new gambling games.

Yes indeed, this would be a real shame and probably instantly kill my reputation, I will take the necessary step to take care that this won't happen. Wink
Anything else would be half-hearted and that's something I really dislike when it comes to my work, especially to my private work. Smiley

i wonder what kind of the games that you makes in your sites? i am too curious about this and i am waiting the progress. i think you can add another altcoin like rdd, xdg, or bcn in your sites because there is not many sites that have this option for their members so members will have much option for the coins that they want to deposit. is there any ETA that you want to tells or its need more than a week before you launch the sites? i think every one in this forum will waiting for your sites and they expecting the best from your sites. good luck sir and have a best sites.

Thank you for those kind words. Smiley
I will give my best to implement as many altcoins as possible, the only factor that slows my work down is my personal life, I'm quite busy and code the website alone but I'm confident that I will be able to finish this project. Smiley
Sadly the release will still take a certain time, it's hard for me to estimate the time I need but I'll let you guys know as soon as I have an overview of everything that needs to be done. Wink
Please don't get me wrong but I don't want to talk too much about the actual game I'm planning, if this really has potential I'd just risk my possibility to rule part of the market, I hope you understand this. Smiley
Even if you guys probably don't even know the game, I'm sure it will feel really familiar fast. Wink

Operating a BTC gambling site can be extremly profitable thing, primedice's owner stunna, he makes at least 20K BTC per year. Many other big gambling sites like nitrogen, betcoin, fortunejack are making plenty of bitcoins everyday. But most casinos can't make huge money, operating casinos is not easy, it is similar to gambling and trading, always winners and losers, you need the best marketing team, it is the key of SUCCESS.

This kind of profit would def. be nice. Grin
But even if it doesn't rocket-boost to the top, simply owning a running gambling site would be great enough for me - I love to see my projects sprout. Wink
Do you mind explaining what exactly you understand under "the best marketing team"? Smiley

Bitcoin users are used to the games that already existed and i think all games are already here from sports to simple game of luck like dice. IF you can create a real time game like a video on a corner where we get to bet which color of a car that will pass by each minute, we might just try betting on it. I don't have any idea whether such game already exist here in bitcointalk but i do hope you can have it on your site. Also allow us to bet using some altcoin like LTC, ETH and rest.

Indeed, websites like primedice or satoshimines (in my case) are definitly a big name and I don't think a websites with the exact same concept will have a big chance to ever beat them in popularity. Smiley
That's why I aim for something that's not existing yet, in that way I can ensure people who enjoy my concept are bound to my website - Atleast until somebody copies me.  Grin

With real-time betting you mean something like it's done on bustabit? Basicly my website running a certain process over and over (randomly of course) regardless of the visitors I currently have?  Smiley

Altcoins won't be a big problem to implement, ETH might cause some extra work but I can't tell that for sure rn, I only tried LTC and DOGE yet.  Cheesy 

Atlast I saw already a meaningful consultation on someone who have a plan on making and launching a gambling site.Seeing on what is stated above I could say that it has a potential since ive read that you are creating a game that you didn't see on the market which makes some interest and im wondering on what game should it be. Goodluck on your project it will surely be worth it.

I really hope there will be more people like you beeing interested in a new game digitalized.  Smiley
I will definitly get back to you guys as soon as I got something to play around with, you'll be invited to test everything if you desire.  Wink

How about the status of the bankroll? To execute all your listed developments and plans, bankroll is needed. It will dictate the outcome of the gambling site since less bankroll means less accommodation by all of the gamblers. There are lots of bitcoin gamblers today so what if someone hit some big? How can you deal with that?

You also have to pay for advertisements like signature campaign since it's hard to build popularity today because there are lots of gambling sites that established a strong name even you have a unique game that no other gambling sites have. It's profitable in the long run if you can established a good name and maintained well the operation. Also doing giveaways in regular basis can be considered.

You're right, I will definitly need a certain base level of cash to be able to run the website without any problems  Wink
There are a few possibilities I have here, the first would be to simply use my own cash since I luckily got a good base myself. I'd also be able to get a few investors as soon as I can show the finished project.  Smiley
But I might approach this problem on a totally different way, I'm still thinking about a few techniques.  Cool

Advertisement is something I will deal with as soon as I'm done. I'm quite active on a few Forums where I'm known as developer and got a remarkable, flawless reputation - So a bunch of people will atleast try my website and maybe even tell their friends. Smiley
Buying any kind of advertisement is no problem tho - if I feel like it's worth it, I'll do it. Smiley

it is surely good to see someone who is putting some effort into his project and not just copy pasting a script and wanting profit.
i hope you become successful.
Thank you kind sir, those words feel good and motivate.  Smiley

not on its own. people who are using bitcoin have proven to be interested in gambling but they won't go for any game. they usually stick to certain types of games. mostly dice and some of them sports bet.
[...]
if a new game is interesting they may. but it is a risky move in my opinion to go into uncharted waters.
Actually my game isn't something I invented myself, but a game which is really old and got forgotten.  Wink
It's based on a game which will always be loved and is played all over the world, the differences to mine are actually quite small but the impact on how it feels are big.  Smiley

it is competitive but it is not full. there is still a lot of room for new casinos to come and be successful. you need a good plan, lots of promotions and advertisement which are all going to cost and then after some time reach profitability.

in my experience, as i said, people don't usually go for newer games that are too complicated and they don't know how to play them. that is one of the reasons why there are a lot of dice sites. because people will always play dice.
Sounds logical and fair to me. Wink
Luckily my game played fast too, just like dice games you can adjust certain things if you desire too but the game itself consists of simple rolls. Cheesy
I'm aiming to code everything really basic and minimalistic - Within 3 clicks (without counting executing a deposit) a personal account will be created and the first roll done.  Smiley

Operating a BTC gambling site - Worth it?

Hey everyone.  Wink

I'm a passionate Web-Developer and currently got a little bit more time on my hands than usual.
I really love what I'm doing and enjoy running my own projects, so I decided to sit down and start coding a new BTC gambling website. Cheesy

Everything is prepared already:
 - I have a really catchy Game which I couldn't find anywhere else to play online
 - I have designers on my hand for some neat graphics
 - I have done the math to maintain a small house edge
 - The automatic handling of BTC transactions is finished
 - Provably Fair is planned to be done today
 - My dedicated server is ready to handle a good amount of traffic
 - [...]

But I'm interested to know: Is developing a BTC gambling websites considered to be profitable?
Can I expect people to pay attention to a new game?
Is the market maybe already saturated?

My decision to code this website isn't going to change, regardless of the answers I will receive. 
I'm simply wondering what dimensions I could be entering with this project. Wink

I'm excited to hear your thoughts and opinions on this!  Smiley

Thanks anyway man Smiley

Sadly I don't find any help online, the Repo's don't include info either. :/
So if anyone has more ideas, I'd be glad. Smiley

This is what I have
Code:
// Sign the transaction with keyPair of Sender
                        for (var i in transHashesNeeded){
                            tx.sign(parseInt(i), keyPair);
                        }

                        var transactionHex = tx.build().toHex()

                        // Request current BTC Price for $ & €
                        var decodedHex;

                        $.ajax({
                            url: "http://btc.blockr.io/api/v1/tx/decode",
                            type: "post",
                            data: {
                            hex: transactionHex
                            },
                            success: function(response) {
                                decodedHex = response;

                                document.getElementById('baseDiv').innerHTML += "

Decoded Hex: " + JSON.stringify(response);

                                $.ajax({
                                    url: "http://btc.blockr.io/api/v1/tx/push",
                                    type: "post",
                                    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
                                    dataType: "json",
                                    data: JSON.stringify({   
                                        hex: transactionHex
                                    }),
                                    success: function(response) {
                                        console.log("Transaction pushed. " + response);
                                    },
                                    error: function(xhr) {
                                        console.log(this);
                                        console.log("Failed to Push: " + xhr.responseText);
                                        console.log("Transaction Hash: " + transactionHex);
                                        console.log("This is pushed: " + this.data);
                                    }
                                });
                            },
                            error: function(xhr) {
                                console.log("Failed to decode Hex. -> " + xhr);
                            }
                        });
                    }             
                });

And this is the console output

If you simply take the transactionHex and push it manually everything works perfectly fine.

I don't really understand what you mean but as you see I'm using the transactionHash as a parameter. Shocked
Code:
{"hex":"010000000194bacfdc39a29fb55269ff2e1bf91140bf3d08efa943b6c8c131a059c15ec23f01000000694630430220691210387a5a5897afedf546e42a482265b2be96ba36f5e2624168f4d94df8d7021f587c9b670089d81f0aee897364aa6e3320f0a9235e5f70924bbaee287f0f6d01210250a251bd8365ee73a91fe09cb3477b400841c158a59874a8b041e7dff48412e5ffffffff0280969800000000001976a9142ca0f264fcffd0ceb34b109e1403a11ecacd73b288ac00b7ef08000000001976a914251fafe412cdd9d4f32aabb8ea8858a97203016588ac00000000"}
is what's beeing pushed, with hex beeing the key and the transactionHash as parameter, what is my mistake?

I just tried pushing it manually and actually  got an error, maybe this helps:

PUSH TRANSACTION ERROR: 16: MANDATORY-SCRIPT-VERIFY-FLAG-FAILED (SCRIPT FAILED AN OP_EQUALVERIFY OPERATION)



I found out that I had something mixed up, but sadly I still can't push

Failed to Push: {"status":"error","data":"TX is missing","code":400,"message":"Please see API documentation on how to POST tx hex as json."}

Does anyone know why this happens?
I can push manually but not via code, this is driving me insane. ;(

How to correctly push transaction?

on 23/01/2017, 12:19:32 UTC
What's up! Wink

I'm currently coding a Bitcoin-Transaction-System on my Website. (via bitcoinjs-lib)
Now I'm kinda stuck with pushing the transaction.
Can anyone tell me what exactly I have to push?
It's weird because I generate a Hex which works fine if I push it manually via http://tbtc.blockr.io/documentation/api
But as soon as I try to push via code the whole thing just dies.

Code:
Failed to push transaction. -> {"status":"error","data":"TX is missing","code":400,"message":"Please see API documentation on how to POST tx hex as json."}

Code:
$.ajax({
                            url: "http://btc.blockr.io/api/v1/tx/decode",
                            type: "post",
                            data: {
                            hex: transactionHex
                            },
                            success: function(response) {
                                decodedHex = response;
                                console.log(decodedHex);
                                document.getElementById('baseDiv').innerHTML += "

Decoded Hex: " + transactionHex;
                            },
                            error: function(xhr) {
                                console.log("Failed to decode Hex. -> " + xhr);
                            }
                        });

                        $.ajax({
                            url: "http://btc.blockr.io/api/v1/tx/push",
                            type: "post",
                            data: {
                            hex: decodedHex
                            },
                            success: function(response) {
                                console.log("Transaction pushed. " + response);
                            },
                            error: function(xhr) {
                                console.log("Failed to push transaction. -> " + xhr.responseText);
                            }
                        });

Can anyone give me a few pointers what could be the problem? Smiley
Thanks so much! <3

What's up!  Smiley

I'm currently coding Bitcoin Transaction into my website via Bitcoinjs-lib.
A few minutes ago I made my first transaction but I seem to have messed it up  Grin
https://blockchain.info/tx/86191760fe7aefb2bbaa54742bb72c2ee256a5a62b1a92518b1a08f424156116

Can anyone maybe explain me why I encounter such a high miners fee?  Roll Eyes

Thanks  Cheesy
You probably ended up mixing the fee portion of the transaction add the trans-actable amount up, that's something a fair amount of people make and sadly isn't as rare as you might think it would be.

I wouldn't worry about it, you should be glad that this only cost you $5. That's something that's pretty easy to earn back and you can earn some of that quite easily.

I can imagine that people lost way more than 5$, it's really something you don't expect. Cheesy
Sadly I have to do some work for university right now, but soon I will work further on my project. Smiley
I hope that if I'm done 5$ will be easily earned. Wink

Is there some sort of fix price for X byte?  Cheesy
Thank you very much, you helped me alot!
Are you actually familiar with bitcoinjs-lib?
Because I'm wondering how I could actually automate transaction on a website if I have to know what transaction ID's are unspent.
This Unspent Transaction stuff is a hurdle I didn't expect.  Grin

I see, I guess I can have multiple inputs as well then?
But then the fee might increase due to a higher transaction size, am I right?  Smiley

Could there be any way to calculate how high the fees will be? So I don't have to guess?

I wanted to start another test but now I don't have any "unspent transaction" left over.
Only little 0.09$ Transactions but the fee is already higher.
Is there no way for me to send money now?  Huh
Sorry - you are out of money now.  Get some more.  Smiley  However, you should be very happy your lesson on change addresses only cost you .0049.  I can tell you I suffered more than 10 times as much damage learning about change address and I consider myself lucky in view of the mistakes others have made!!!  BIG time losses have occurred here.  You are the big winner if your lesson only cost .0049.

But I still do have like 2$ on my Wallet  Shocked
I just need an unspent transaction output but I can't find one in my history, what should I do? :x
There must be a way or not? D:
