Not sure what you were referring to but all members were reimbursed promptly - caracter2 is obv trolling for some hidden selfish reason.

The new owner still intends on re-releasing it when ready.

And now the site's gone?

FFS. another bitcoin site runs away with the money?

That is so sad to see. Sad
How much did you invest in there ?

Previous owner should refund every investor before transferring the business to the new owner.
I don't know about the attack you refer to, but imo this is not a detail you can hide to a buyer...

We have finalized a purchase privately and since there weren't any legitimate bids the auction is now over.

Thanks for any interest nonetheless. 

The new owner is a trustworthy and dedicated individual who will give it the care and attention required.  It will be in good hands and we wish the new owner and the project success in the future. 

Can we know more about who the owner is, when the new owner is taking charge, and what will happen to the BTC owing to investors who were affected by the attack on 06/27/2014?

Some recent numbers from the last 30 days of activity - a week of which we turned off the faucet and were preparing for a potential auction.

Also a reminder to all that you can place 0, no need to deposit to try out the site, just start betting.

Good point.

Here is Cloudflare analytics since early August



We didn't utilize Google Analytics for fear of vulnerability.   

Internal site data/activity api can be publicly accessed through https://satoshicarnival.co/api/reqHistory.php and '?' queues.  Exact details of which I will get from Christian to pinpoint exact activity past 30 days.

Bear in mind the analytics above are with barely any marketing besides our thread on bitcointalk and word of mouth primarily.  The site has barely scratched the surface of awareness in the cryptospace, and most customers to be are not even in Bitcoin as of yet.  This is a spectacular mid to longerm play for those who have the time and resources to market with signature campaigns, social marketing and otherwise push the site past its starting block.

Can you please show recent traffic and bet volume please?

Recent taffic is in the cloudflare picture above.  Also the Stats panel on site shows site activity as well as the Graphs tab shows activity by time.

~2.5 months being live

24 million hits
~5000 unique visitors in

~3.6 milllion bets
~700 accounts
~BTC2.3 profit (wagering didn't get going intensely, more marketing is needed there)
Expected house profit of ~1% as the game was intelligently designed to balance low house edges and high house edges for high rollers and fun players

There is an autobet feature that players enjoyed to use on galaxies as they are rarely hit but pay extremely big (bound by Kelly maxbet principles)

This truly is a great site, took a tremendous amount of work, development and sweat to build and launch.  Satoshicarnival has a tremendous amount of potential and is beautiful in both feel and function.  It is worth much more then BTC10.

Sorry 2.5 Months is not current in fast moving crypto times.  Can you please give us the last month figures please?

This is a great site!

I played there personally. Too bad the owners don't have the time to give it the attention it deserves. Hopefully it will wind up in the hands of someone who will be able to give it a good home.

I played there since the open beta and I personally saw how much time and work was put in to creating the site. Definitely a lot of value here. Good luck to all the bidders. Smiley
