Thank you for having shown these evidences.
Their statement was clearly inaccurate, fallacious and misleading and your report clearly deserved a bigger compensation than 5$ in bonus. It's a serious matter even if they didn't cheat you in the strict sense of the term.

Yeah, I mean... You can't imagine what I felt when the hash didn't match when making the verification... I mean this is very serious for their reputation if they can't maintain updated one of the most important sections of their site, can you imagine their security? anti-hack? their programming? wow, a lot to think. Think twice before depositing your crypto there.


By the way, the fact They treated me like a kid or a beggar asking for pennies with that $5 bonus is disrespectful, I was gambling MUCH more than that... Crazy, BIG thumbs down for that fallacious, misleading and shady site.

Okay, the issue happened with PrimeDice, it is very popular, The amount I lost is actually small it's like 0.4BTC and 2ETH... But here are the details of the issue

This is the server seed and the hashed server seed of my bets

Their provably fair statement said they were using SHA512 to hash the server seed.

This is the hashed result using a SHA512 calculator

As you can see the hash doesn't match... I contacted the support demanding an explanation, this is what they answered:

Basically they told me it was just a typo issue, they gave me a $5 bonus "for letting them know about the mistake". I just don't understand how they claim to be the #1 Bitcoin gambling site and making these kinds of mistakes in such important section of their website... That's shady for me, and I definitely will never gamble there again.

Is this considered cheating? or Ilegal?

Hello, This happened to me today, on a provably fair Dice Bitcoin gambling site I lost some money, then I checked my bets using an online verifier, in their website they say they use SHA512 algorithm to hash server seed, however, when they revealed the unhashed server seed I checked it using a SHA512 calculator... It should match the hashed server seed they provided to me, however it does not match.


So the the hashed SHA512 of the server seed is different to the hashed server seed they gave to me when I started my session. Isn't that considered cheating? I mean they provably are calculating right the dice value, however, the only fact of having wrong information on their provably fair statement should be enough for a legal complaint, shouldn't it?

Please someone tell me if it is enough to put some lawyers to work, or if it would be just a waste of time. Thanks!
