This will never ever rank/work. Why even raise money to start an affiliate website, get content writing lol.
Allow me to explain what you already did wrong or lied to us about.
1. If you guys were ''Bitcointalk old timers'', you wouldn't need to raise money.
2. Raising money for an affiliate website is sort of unheard of, if it was your own casino and you needed $40k for iSoftbet white label package, yeah...maybe.
3. ''Keeping it on the low'' by posting the url without spaces or anything *cough* backlink from btctalk.org?
4. What is the initial asked-for amount based upon?
5. Have you done market research? Do you know how competitive the casino niche is, even if you think you're tackling some niche as ''crypto casinos'' which every casino affiliate site has a tab for in their header menu nowadays?
6. The idea of a PGP fingerprint casino is fun, all plays well to believers of ANON, which is fine, but ehum how do you know a 14-year-old hasn't downloaded Kleopatra and how are you going to do KYC, AML?
Bottom line: the idea is nice, but keep owning your own ''revolutionary online casino'' as a dream for now.
