a 150/300,000,000 chance to win 25 BTC "
Well at this chance it pretty much is about as good an investment as investing in the lottery.
Feels to me that at least they are calling it what it is, lottery and not a serious investment.

Possible complementary hardware solutions for designated proof of stake?
"The Dice can be used as an entry-level miner, but that's not what it's all about. Installing custom software allows the Dice to act as a blockchain lottery device, giving the user a 150/300,000,000 chance to win 25 BTC every 10 minutes."

So they market it as a "lottery" and are essentially solo mining.
