Thanks for the quick help. I have total control of the account, and there only seems to be one scam victim for a sum of 0.15 BTC (they used my account and its reputation to organize an alt trade and got the other person to send bitcoin first). However, I am more than happy to pay for out of pocket (it's really my fault for having a crappy password that could be cracked).

The red rep is no longer needed.

Well the point is that the person who had access to my account has contacted a bunch of people, and I'm worried about them having had moved the conversation to other mediums (e.g. email, IM) and they believe they're speaking to me, but speaking to a scammer. However if they see my account has neg rep, they'll likely read it

Can someone on the DT please leave me negative trust for being a hacked account. Someone today seems to have hacked the account and organize some altcoin trades. I think I have total control of the account, but I'd like it as a warning for anyone who is dealing with this account or thinks they are communicating with me

On one of the threads in the gambling section someone asked about investing 100 btc, to which I replied with what most would consider a very reasonable advise. Within literally 30 or 40 seconds, my reply was deleted. I believe allowing this is extremely harmful and misleads readers into believe they are viewing a balanced discussion, which is especially dangerous when it comes to things like other sites and services.

As a form of spam protection, I would support the ability of self-moderated thread creators to minimise-by-default someones reply -- but allowing outright deletion seems like a very harmful policy.

Only 15 minutes left, current best bid of 100 BTC. Please bid 110 or more if you're interested. Any bid from now until close will be considered a 'snipe' and I will extend the auction.

If no further bids are placed, I will ask the owner of 1KpBnBAdSH4fqns41aefiWmKmJ2DTRn1j3 to please sign a message, either here or to both me and Doog -- and you are the lucky winner!

Definitely possible. I however talked to a few  (3) people who requested withdrawals when the hot wallet didn't have enough funds, and they were all given errors and not able to withdraw until the hot wallet was filled. If the funds were never frozen and queued, I don't see how dmf could have processed a withdrawal directly from the cold storage for you?

Am I missing something?

As always, nice work Doog.


I agree, I'lll change it to be zero sum for the house (instant crash in 1 in 101 games, as opposed to 1 in 100) and we can really simplify the calculator and calculations.

Quoting for emphasis. This is a theory I'm inclined to believe.

If I give you a historical hash, it is useless -- as if I was tampering with the game, I'd also change that too. The only way to verify the game is via using a hash you know was sent before the game started. You can either do this manually, or with a bot.

There is no record of hashes, this is by design. If you don't understand why, you likely don't understand how the provably predetermined thing works =)

Shit just got interesting..



and that is indeed the cold storage address they used

The game crashes of the old game (back 2 months ago) were a bit different, and don't make too much sense in the current context. (i.e. that game didn't really crash at 0.01x).  I tried to backport the old scheme to the way moneypot works now -- but I forgot in the database that I stored 2.43 as a 243 -- and my script fucked it up. I'll pull the historic game crash data from a backup and restore them when I get a chance. It's just for historical interest though. =)

The best way to verify is *first* copy the hash from before a game starts. Then watch the game, and see where it ends. Then click in the history to go to the game details, and copy the seed. Now compute the sha1(gameCrash + '|' + seed) and you can verify it matches the original hash.

It's very tedious to do by hand, but there is at least two money pot bots playing money -- and one of them is verifying hashes -- the other i'm not so sure, but i wouldn't be surprised if it did so too.

Dooglus has been obsessively collecting d.n stats: http://privatepaste.com/6bde6b8f7e

So I wrote a little script the sums up the inputs/outputs coming from d.n's known cold storage address at the exact time dooglus collected his stats. The cold storage balances at the time of dooglus' stats can be found here: http://privatepaste.com/9dfc2f723e


Of course, a picture is worth a million words -- so here is it plotted:

Stunna is right, I just had a look at 999dice's provably fair scheme -- and by design it skips nonces to allow them to pick what ever result they feel like for you. Pure scam territory...

I had a look, it's quite a nice scheme -- but how do you handle one of the secret providers not revealing the hash? e.g. the site is down, they lose the seed etc.

Imagine this,  BitSaloon secretly buys 50% of your tickets, then they have a 50% chance of winning. If they don't win, instead of revealing the seed that would prove so, they lose it (or suspend the site). As I understand it, you'll be forced to do a redraw, which would effectively give them a 75% of winning with 50% of the tickets

These is the date, and ip address that I am 100% certain dmf was using:

August 2  -- 206.174.121.150
August 4  -- 206.174.121.150
August 14  -- 66.223.177.52
August 24 -- 66.223.177.52

Both the account 'AKCoinDigger' and 'dmf' were created using the ip address: 206.174.121.150
Both used the exact same user agent: Mozilla/5.0%2520(Macintosh;%2520Intel%2520Mac%2520OS%2520X%252010_9_3)%2520AppleWebKit/537.36%2520(KHTML,%2520like%2520Gecko)%2520Chrome/36.0.1985.143%2520Safari/537.36

The account 'AKCoinDigger' was created a month prior to dmf accounts

Plot twist: Joe helped DMF steal his own coins.


All ips use the exact same user-agent of:
