Any luck so far? @the rise

This sounds absolutely ridiculous. But for my case, they say that I am "exploiting" and refuses to elaborate further. I guess we are on the same boat.


Here's another update from BK8, they approached me directly and is forcing me to withdraw just my deposit, and then close my account. I never agreed to it and I explicitly mentioned that I will not withdraw, just so that they can keep my account open, but they refused. It feels like they’re trying to quietly wipe the balance and move on, without transparency or due process. I’ve also explicitly given consent in the forum to share logs for investigation, but they continue to ignore that.

Is this considered fair treatment? They’re pushing me to walk away from winnings without even basic evidence or audit, and I just wanted a transparent review. I’m open to mediation or further discussion, but this looks like a silent denial of accountability. Please, any advice or support is much appreciated.

Hi everyone, just a quick update on my case.

I followed up with BK8 directly on Telegram, but they have now stated that they are unable to provide any betting logs or evidence, even though I’ve given them consent to share all of my betting history.

At this point, it feels like I’m hitting a wall. There’s no transparency and no willingness to back up their accusations.

I noticed that in previous scam accusation here, BK8 was literally begging DT members to review their evidence to clear their name. But now, they go silent and hide behind vague terms like “security” and “final decision.”


Is BK8 just avoiding scrutiny? Or are they looking for a forum member to mediate like before?
Would really appreciate advice or insight from anyone who’s dealt with similar cases.

Hi @BK8.Official, it has now been almost a week since your last response. Any updates on the evidence and full betting logs regarding my case?

Hi @BitcoinGirl.Club, I mentioned it was similar to card counting, but in terms of using observation and timing, not exploiting hidden flaws in the system. Do correct me if I'm wrong, card counting is not illegal, but it was frowned upon by the casinos (sometimes getting paid then kicked out, depends on where you are). It requires mental calculation, tracking, and efforts to be put into it to be effective.

In my case, my bets were based entirely on publicly visible, real-time Binance BTC/USDT prices displayed directly in the game. There’s no mental calculation, bug, or secret knowledge, it is just reacting to a live market pattern (I did mention my strategy in this thread, so you can refer to that).

Simply, I played the game as designed. If simply winning too much is treated as proof of cheating, then every successful player is at risk, because that undermines trust in any platform.

To answer your question @The Cryptovator, I am willing to let BK8 to keep my deposit if they can prove with actual evidence that they claimed I was involved with an "exploit".

As you have pointed out, if there was an "exploit" happened on July 1-2, it would be a massive incident. Especially since the game is based on the live Binance price feed involving BTC/USDT Market. Yet, there's no news covering this in the media.

@BK8.Official, if you stand by your accusations, then please share the proof here:
1. Show what exact “exploit” was performed
2. Show my betting logs

I give full consent to you in releasing all my logs and game activity publicly. If you cannot do that, then it’s clear you’re basing this decision on vague claims without transparency or accountability. Withholding both my deposit and winnings, without evidence of wrongdoing, is not just unethical, it’s theft.

I also have a question regarding this part:
Why is BK8 asking the game provider to offer compensation to me, when the winnings from game provider's wallet had already been transferred into my BK8 main wallet? At that point, isn’t it BK8, as the licensed and regulated operator, who holds the responsibility of paying out player balances? Isn't BK8 the actual custodian of player funds?

If the provider had a design issue, that’s an internal matter between BK8 and the provider. It shouldn’t be pushed onto players after the fact, especially without clear evidence of wrongdoing.

Thank you, @BK8.Official, for responding publicly.

And thanks @TravelMug for voicing a very valid point.

I want to clarify again that I simply observed patterns in a publicly available, live game and made bets accordingly, like card counting in blackjack or trend analysis in trading. This is not cheating; it’s strategic.

The game in question was open and available to everyone. It had no notice of malfunction, and bets were accepted normally. At first, I was able to transfer my winnings from the  game provider's wallet to BK8 main wallet successfully. I attempted to withdraw on the first day, then on the second day, my account was suspended and everything voided, without showing specific proof of any "irregular play."

BK8 is not just a channel. It is the licensed host of the platform, and with that comes the responsibility to ensure the fairness, transparency, and accountability of the games offered. Players have no direct relationship with the game provider. We trust and play on BK8, not on the backend service. I believe BK8 should take responsibility for resolving this fairly, rather than passing the final decision to the provider.

If a game was poorly designed or not resilient to certain strategies, that should fall under the provider’s responsibility, not the player's. Voiding bets retroactively after a win sets a dangerous precedent where players are only allowed to lose.

I believe in fairness, and I respect BK8’s previous reputation. I still hope for a reconsideration or at least more transparency on what exactly is being labeled an "exploit."

Yeah, let's wait for BK8's response on this.

I have to agree on your point of view that it is similar to card counting. It does not guarantee 100% win rate, but it does improve my odds through observation and timing. Also, on the casino side, if the game offers a pattern that's beatable, I'd see that as a design flaw as well, and not foul play on the player's side, at least in my opinion. Just like card counting, it's not cheating, it's actually being strategic within the rules and limits provided.

Hi BK8 rep, thanks for looking into this. I hope this will be a fair review.

I will cooperate or provide any further information you may need to resolve this.

Many casinos do keep vague clauses in their Terms as a safety net, but I believe it’s important to draw a line between using it for genuine protection versus using it after the fact to justify not paying out a legitimate win. In this case, BK8 offered a game based on real-time market data, and any market will naturally go through periods of low volatility, where price movements are minimal. I simply placed bets based on the information made available by their system.

Regarding how the game works and my strategy:
The game provides a 10-second window to place bets, followed by 10 seconds to determine the “Close” value, which reflects the market’s closing price within that round. The last digit of the second decimal place of the “Close” value determines the winning number (i.e., 0 to 9). So if the “Close” is 100,000.02, then “2” wins.

I focused on two observable factors from the live feed of the game:
1) Volume – When the reported trading volume is low (around 0–5 units), it often indicates very little market activity, meaning price movement is limited.
2) Close movement pattern – During these low-volatility periods, the “Close” price tends to hover between fixed values like 100,000.01 and 100,000.02, or even stay unchanged.

When I observed this, I would bet on the two likely outcomes (in this case, digits “1” and “2”) — this isn’t manipulation or abuse. It’s pattern recognition based on available, real-time data.

In my opinion, this isn’t exploiting a flaw. It’s simply smart betting based on predictable behavior in low-volatility markets, something BK8 should have considered when designing the game or hosting the game.

Do let me know if you need further explanation on this to clear things up.

These are the responses from AG and CG . https://imgur.com/a/OyYkiuT
That's actually one of the reason I approached CM for arbitration, which unfortunately BK8 doesn't respond back to them.

As for approaching gambling authority or pursuing legal options, that would be my last resort. I am still being hopeful that BK8 will handle this properly and clarify things here in this forum, since I've never had any issue using their platform for years, until now.

Hi mu_enrico, original post included my username. For easier reference, I have added bk8 username and also it's region to my post, thanks for pointing it out. And yeah, the $83k from $120 was surreal. I hope they take this seriously and respond accordingly.

Hi BK8 team,

I've been suspended and winnings withheld. Despite repeated attempts to resolve this through CasinoMeister, there’s been no response.

I’ve created a scam accusation thread here for transparency and further discussion with the community:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5550804.new#new

I kindly ask that you review the situation and respond publicly.

Hi acroman08, thanks for helping out. I'll try to post it in their ANN thread. That's the exact phrase they used, "bet choice that had winning bias with irrational payout". In my opinion, it feels like they are penalising me for winning on their system and admitting the game was poorly designed. But as a player, I just played what was offered; spotted a pattern and bet accordingly.

Thanks for your offer rise, let's give BK8 some time to respond before escalating further. Appreciate it.

What really alarmed me was them ignoring third-party mediation from CasinoMeister. I’m still hoping BK8 will step in and clarify things soon.

Hi rise, I understand the need to hear both sides, and I absolutely welcome BK8 to step in and explain their position. I was using BK8 for years now and never had any issue, most likely because I lose most of the time lol.

Hi Shishir99, unfortunately my complaint was rejected by Casino Guru because I do not play on standard casino game (slots, poker, roulette, etc.) which they are unable to evaluate this case properly, and also rejected by AskGamblers which they've had advice me to reach out to relevant Gambling Authority (which in this case is Curacao GCB.. sigh).


Hi Beparanf, I totally agree with your point where the issue is with the game design. I have gone through and read their TOS, the only thing that is applicable to this case is the part where “irregular play includes, but is not limited to...”, meaning they can just cough up any reason to suspend my account. While I believe I am entitled to the full amount, I’m open to discussing a fair settlement if BK8 steps up and communicates transparently.

Hi Cryptovator,

I have edited the post for proper formatting, thanks for pointing it out.
