I'm so confused by this project.
For one, it is clear from your wix site that web development isn't your specialty. How is the actual lottery draw going to be done?
What happens if nobody donates one day? Nobody wins? How would you keep people coming back?

Also, your % split keeps changing every few messages.

I give you a better suggestion since you want people to deposit BTC and test your system.

Look at this guys: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5140688.0

They are paying the users upfront to test their system and you can do the same. Ask the very trusted members in the forum to test your system and give them the required BTC to deposit.

This way users will not need to trust a new business with their own money.

Interesting idea. I'll pitch it to the team.

Does the 10% bonus have any restriction on the plays after they are credited? As in, do I have to wager it or is it mine?

And is the 10% bonus applied to the bet amount or to the winnings?

As in, if I bet $10, and the bet is cancelled so that it returns to me my wager, am I getting back $11 or $10?

Sorry for questions but just like to be clear:)



The 10% bonus is yours. There are no restrictions on it.
The bonus is applied to the winnings.

Thanks guys, I'm told the BCTBETA code has been used successfully a number of times.

Please let me know if the betting and payments system needs any work.

OP I like some functions you offer but to be fair website looks very poor, better to get some good template, look your opponents, their website looks very attractive. Also when it says: 17 Available Matches, does this means we are limited in offered games? Because can't find more than one page too. It will be good for your business to make filter for games, for example make one block for La Leagua, another one for Serie A, Champions League and etc. This is really must to have even for beta project. Also include some details on betting, for example number of corners and others which top casinos offer.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll pass it on to the team.

Edit:  
Spirebets, can you show a proof of bankroll? You seem to be willing to take a 0.5 BTC wager on a parlay with odds of 4191, and I find it very hard to believe that you can afford a 2000 coin win. If you can't, please implement proper dynamic limits based on your bankroll size.
 

Bets will not be matched if the potential win isn't within our liability limit. Anything on the betslip is helpful for building your bet, but the final matching is done once you hit "place bet" and the system attempts to match it.


Can you sign a message from an address with a decent amount of coins to prove that you do have funds to payout? What happens if the bet isn't matched? Is there any way to see the limit?

The address will be sent.

When a bet isn't matched, the user is shown an error message to that effect. We'll have to find a way of indicating dynamic odds limits to clear things up.

Please let me know if you have any more questions or if you need clarification.
Will you make better margins, or do you plan to fade off into non-existence like many others?

We're going to maintain competitive margins. Lower margins will drive off users, so nobody wins.

I made observations, but I see that there are no answers. I will never pay a cent to a bookmakers without a license and with a mailbox address

Sorry for the delay. Your comments have been answered.

It's a pity that you won't give it a chance, but we understand your position.

I don't like that to deposit on the spirebets account you pass with coinbase by paying in USD.
I could experiment, but I must be free to use my BTC / ETH addresses both to deposit and to withdraw.
To withdraw you have indicated the fees to be paid, but it is not known if you pay taxes on deposits.
The 10% deposit promotion is not published on the site.
Finally, a very important aspect is to know the maximum bet you accept, because if you deposit 1 BTC I don't have to have the negative surprise, that you only accept 0.2 BTC of maximum bet

The USD/Coinbase system was used earlier in development, but subsequently dropped. The help documentation has been updated to reflect the update.

ETH and other popular currencies are coming in an update that will be released later in the beta.

There are no taxes/fees on deposits, just network fees on withdrawal as indicated.

The 10% promotion is an exclusive promotion created for bitcointalk users participating in the beta, so it isn't promoted on the site.

The maximum deposit for anonymous betting is indicated on the payment page. We are adding minimum and maximum indicators as suggested by motodor.

Please let me know if you have any more questions or if you need clarification.

I will wait for another crypto to enter as a payment, the site looks perfect I'm very happy to see it spirebets looks like Directbet but if you add some well known cryptocurrencies it will definitely be crowded.

Thanks for the feedback. More currencies are coming soon.

As most members mentioned it has come with some features of directbet that attracted the people towards gambling in large numbers.. Now this being completely dedicated to the football match betting over the early days will get more people into it, as most of the sports betting people always prefer football over other games. Some form of promotion too is a must during the early days to reach people about the existence of spirebets.

Thanks. More sports will be added soon.

Why would you launch a website when it is in beta testing? If a user comes across a bug or loses his money, your website will get a bad reputation and people will avoid it. You just support football games which limit your market to an only a specific audience.

We consulted about this before posting.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5155585.0

Any issues will be dealt with by our support team as they come up.
Transparency is very important, so we are clearly marking the site and this thread as beta testing.

Other sports will be added soon.

i thought that beta testing means we can use the website freely without using any bitcoin and can you show a minimum bet for each bet?


This beta is a full  function test with a small number of people outside the development team.

We'll add the minimum bet as you suggested. Thanks.

The odds on the games are awesome I really get pissed off when I see freakishly small odds to teams. Although games can be played without having an account the registration is very straight to the point and easy I would be placing my bet that this project would do well

Great to hear.

Finally there is a new sportsbook that is a bit similar to directbet where users are not required to have an account to place bets. I haven't checked about the odds you offers compared to other sportsbook sites, so I have no ideas whether your odds is competitive enough or not. Coming to your site, I think it is better if you have a filter or categorization of the sports. Sorry if it is available already for those who have an account but I cant find it without an account except the search function.
I was also thinking the same thing as I like the feel of directbet.eu when they were around as it was a great way to just put in a quick bet before a match started and never needed to login and go through things that you normally would with having an account on the betting site you were using. I have about three different accounts for sportsbetting sites and actually lost one and trying to recover it right now. Just too many sites can be a burden for some who have too many sites to remember login information for can be a pain.
Love the idea of no registration required if you are just wanting to place a small on the go wager on a game.
Thanks for giving us this option again and will be using your site in the very near future and hoping to see more sports offered in the coming months as you described.

Thanks. We have some other sports in alpha testing. They should be available soon.

I have seen your site but I see the Log in and Sign up button, why the feature is there? while we can play without making an account just enter the payout address under Betslip. But btw good luck with your website launch even though it's still beta I'm very interested in playing there.

Registration is optional. If the user wants to avoid the network fees associated with sending winnings for every bet, registration can help reduce the number of transactions.

We look forward to having you using the site  Smiley

For the beta, only football (soccer) is active. We'll add other sports, as well as tournament and country filters soon.

Since you are testing the BETA version and very new to the market, my suggestion is to giveaway registration bonus (without any need of depositing, may be to some number of users only. Say first 500 as example) with some very hard goal to achieve like 30x play through of the initial bonus for minimum odd of 1.8 or 1.9.

This way new users will be attracted to have the free bonus.  
Thanks for the suggestion.
We've gone with the blanket 10% bonus on all bets for now so that we can test anonymous betting as well as registered betting.

The incentives will change as the testing continues.
