I have 2 remarks:

1. The deposit and withdraw attacks were not just targeted against (recent) high rollers. I have not wagered on freebitco.in in months, and my account was still affected. Fortunately, I did not lose any bitcoin, because I did not try to deposit or withdraw when the attacks were taking place; but for a period of ~24 hours my deposit address switched to some unknown address. I have had the same deposit address for years and have not changed it recently, and so I knew immediately that something fishy was going on. After about a day, my deposit address changed back to my normal address.

2. This was absolutely not caused by "viruses or plugins they installed". I have 3 different devices that I use to log in to this site, and my deposit address was switched on every single device. Are you really going to argue that I had the exact same virus on all 3 devices?

I have ~100 messages on this forum, and in nearly all of them I have spoken positively about freebitco.in (they gave me a lambo!). I have to be critical here, though. Blaming users for these recent issues is not cool.

The ticket list for the 10th lambo drawing has been posted on the freebitco.in twitter account. We will know the winner when bitcoin block 842189 is mined.

Good luck to everyone who earned tickets during round 10!

For those who may have missed the email, we are being given a rare opportunity to earn some free, guaranteed golden tickets. You have about 2 days left to make 30 free BTC rolls, and you'll be given 5 golden tickets for your troubles. If you are usually not too active on the faucet, now would be a good time to claim a free chance at winning $200K

@TheQuin, not sure if this is intentional or not, but I have gotten a few 6 hour flash promos lately that have lasted for nearly 7 hours. I just wanted to let you know in case you were not aware.

I just stumbled across this thread. Congrats on your lambo win. Based on the amount you wagered these past few months, you certainly earned it.

That said, there's not anything that we can do to help you, except to ensure you that you will be paid out for your win. I was the winner of the round 7 lambo. The drawing for round 7 took place on October 17, 2022. My freebitco.in account was credited with $200K on October 19, 2022:

If you haven't already, I would go to the FAQ tab on freebitco.in and use the Contact Form to send a message to TheQuin. You might get in touch with him sooner that way. That is how I first reached out to him when I won.

And now, some unsolicited advice, which you are free to ignore if you'd like. When you receive your winnings, withdraw them. Your previous messages suggest that you have a problem with gambling, and that typically doesn't end well (ask me how I know).

Congrats again, and good luck!

Hello friend. I'm still around. I had just under 14k golden tickets in the previous round, which gave me about a 1 in 113 chance of winning. Nearly all of these were earned by making large bets on the rugby world cup, like this one, in the France vs. Namibia match:

https://imgur.com/a/MGRULEe

Some people might think it's crazy, but from the premium membership cash back, reward points, daily jackpots, and monthly contests, I was able to make ~1.8 bitcoin by betting on a few rugby matches. These matches were never going to be close, either; in some cases I was betting on a team that was the -100000 favorite on other betting sites (meaning, if you bet $100,000 on France, and France wins, you make $100).

Anyway, the long answer your question is, I still can't figure out how the winner got those additional 150k golden tickets.

You only get golden tickets by (a) wagering, (b) buying them, or (c) winning them on the wheel of fortune. So they either wagered a lot, bought a lot, or won a lot on the wheel, or some combination of the three.

In the other 4 monthly contests, they would only be able to wager ~10 bitcoin without showing up on the leaderboard. So, it is possible they wagered 40 extra bitcoin during the other 4 months of this lambo drawing. But that would only be 16,000 golden tickets.

Given that you have ~0.1% chance of winning a golden ticket on a single WOF spin, you would need millions of spins to win that many golden tickets. It is not possible to get that many WOF spins in 6 months.

Buying 100k golden tickets would cost 250 bitcoin. Nobody is crazy enough to do that.

So the short answer to your question is: I'm stumped.

He or she wagered 553.58634500 bitcoin during contest round 58 (April) and 12.09879000 bitcoin during contest round 59 (May). This accounts for a total of 565.685135 wagered, which corresponds to 113,117 golden tickets.

Where the other 153,145 golden tickets came from is a bit of a mystery, as they did not place in the top 10 during any of the other monthly contests. They either bought them, which makes no sense (why would you pay millions of dollars to win $200K?) or won them on the wheel of fortune, which seems highly unlikely (you would need millions of WOF spins to win that many tickets).

Using bots is not allowed, no. I was going to point you to their terms of service, which clearly state that bots are not allowed, when I noticed that their terms have gotten a pretty big overhaul recently. There used to be just 3 simple rules (no bots, be civil, no multi-accounting). Now, they look like this:

I don't know where you would have heard that having less tickets gives you a higher chance to win, but that is certainly not the case.


The base reward is 0.2 cents/roll, not 2 cents/roll, so if you are getting 6x the base reward, that would be 1.2 cents/hour, not 12 cents/hour. As a result, all of your math is off by a factor of 10.

This must be some kind of record for freebitco.in:

https://imgur.com/a/77w6Cmn

500+ bitcoin wagered within 25 hours. At yesterday's prices, that's over $15 million.

He or she earned 100,000+ golden tickets, 100 million reward points/lottery tickets, and the lucky person who referred them received over 2 bitcoin commission. Had they waited for the 5x reward point bonus, they would have received 500 million reward points, which they could have cashed out for 5 bitcoin.

They will be able to claim 20 times the base reward from the faucet for the foreseeable future 

As all eyes turn to the eighth lambo round, I'll admit I'm a little sad that my user ID will no longer be displayed on the lambo page on freebitco.in. Only 33 tickets for me this round, so I'm not too optimistic about my chances here.

In a few hours someone else will get to experience what it feels like to win a life changing amount of money. I do hope it is someone from this forum. Good luck all.

To be fair, you are still multiplying your bitcoin, you're just multiplying by a number less than 1 

Freebitco.in tells you exactly how they make their money, and they are still standing 9 years after they launched, through bull and bear market alike. Meanwhile, more "trusted" institutions, like Blockfi, Gemini Earn, Voyager, Celcius, gambled away their users funds and have closed their doors and disappointed those who trusted them.


You are not mistaken.


I won't answer the first question, but I opened my freebitco.in account at the end of 2017 and have had a significant balance in it for approximately 5 years.

Well, I was going to wait until I hit the magical 1.0 bitcoin interest earned, which I expect to happen by the end of the month, but you asked, so I'll post a little early. I do not consider this chump change 

https://imgur.com/a/HJAMBXc

That's interesting, I didn't know this.

I believe the maximum number of WOF spins you can get each day is 238 (someone please let me know if I'm missing any):

16 if you have been a level 7 premium member for 360+ days
2 emailed to you (1 promotional email, 1 daily wagering stats email if you've wagered >500 sats  that day)
100 from the "Exchange RP for WOF" option
120 if you redeem the 5 WOF spins / roll reward and do a 24 free rolls over the next 24 hours

Based on the 4.2 billion number you gave, if you get 238 WOF spins per day, you will, on average, win 1 rolex every ~49441 years

If you've never claimed a bonus before you can see how much you have wagered on the site by going to the multiply tab. At the top of the page you'll see a message: "You are eligible for a bonus of x.xxxxxxxx BTC for playing MULTIPLY BTC! Click here to claim your bonus."

For every 100 satoshi you wager on dice or betting, the bonus you are eligible for increases by 1 satoshi. So, multiply the bonus you are eligible for by 100 to see how much you've wagered in total on the site. Again, this will only work if you've never claimed a bonus before.

Yeah, they do email you.

https://imgur.com/M9ND1cQ

This was a long time ago but I believe my email was only subscribed to payment notifications.

Thanks for the explanation.

I think the extra money that you're talking about comes from a reduction in the outcome odds. Take a look at a recent event on freebitco.in, for example, the England vs. France quarterfinal game. 65% of the money was placed on France, and 35% on England. So you would expect the odds to be (1.0/0.65) = 1.54 for France and (1.0/0.35) = 2.85 for England. But the actual odds were much less for both teams, 1.31 for France and 2.10 for England.

So, it seems to me that the TWM always does boost the odds, and this extra money comes from a reduction in the outcome odds.

Are you sure about this? Your example assumes every winner who placed a bet placed the exact same bet amount, which is a pretty big assumption to make. Anyway, I was under the impression the time weight multiplier always gave a boost to the final outcome odds, it just gives less of a boost to those who bet late.

If someone knows the formula freebitco.in uses to calculate the betting payouts, it would be greatly appreciated if they could post it.

It is certainly not enough for me to retire either. I will have to pay taxes when I withdraw and convert from bitcoin to fiat. I have not cashed out anything as of yet. I will likely wait until the next bull run to cash some out and buy a house.
