Yeah true. I'm also changing the ASP.NET and C# code to NodeJs and moving away from Azure (which I relied on their queue service before) to another cloud platform.

It's going well and to be honest a lot easier than I expected.

I am of the opinion that it would be more nice and kind of being more clients conscious if you can try to notify the community if there will be any upgrade on this site and why its going to offline for a particular period of time and when its going to be back online this will save unnecessary speculations in a case where you are not available to respond to enquiries raised by user who visited during down times.

Don't know how I've missed this thread.

Nice to see you back in the game. Will definitely try out once there's a version online again.

Best of luck with this.

Have Fun )@@( Stay Safe
This sounds like a big change but it won't slow down the development as much as you might think.
I will give updates in here and put a new test site up once I have changed everything over.
It is a big change and so i guess it might take some time for the site to be back depending upon the time you are able to spend for the site,what happened to old sites,it was a lot easier to relaunch everything and make some minor tweeks and good to see that you are taking an effort to start everything from scratch,i would like to know what made you to move away from Azure .

What is it now? Lamp? I mean if you are moving away from mssql the most reasonable choice would be mysql, that is not a hard migration for someone who knows mssql.

Changing backend sql to something else is not as hard as changing the front end code if you ask me. Changing from javascript to php is a lot (I mean A LOT) harder than changing the backend databse from mssql to mysql.

So I've decided to rewrite (again) the backend in NodeJS, change database away from MSSQL and use a different cloud/hosting provider.

Wow. This means lots of rewrite.
I think you are more familiar with MS technologies so it will be hard for you to migrate to Linux platform, but I'm sure it will pay off in long term.

Also here is my react-stack with node.js if you want to check for fast development: https://github.com/lugrugzo/react-stack

It looks like test site is down right now http://bkp1.azurewebsites.net/
Is it only me or others also have similar problem?
or this testing is over now?

It's not just you Smiley

I took that test version offline.

I've had a bit of an issue with Microsoft Azure the past few weeks.
Lets just say their service isn't going to be the ideal choice for the new website.

So I've decided to rewrite (again) the backend in NodeJS, change database away from MSSQL and use a different cloud/hosting provider.
I will also be switching to Linux instead of Windows servers. (only took 4 years dooglus Smiley )

This sounds like a big change but it won't slow down the development as much as you might think.

I will give updates in here and put a new test site up once I have changed everything over.

Thanks

Small Updates:

Added scroll to investments dialog so if you have too many investments you can still see the close button.
Don't show divest dialog if total investment is 0
Set new limits for highroller bets based on currency: btc = 0.1, eth = 2, dash = 2, ltc = 10, xmr=5, free doesn't get on it
You can't invest the free coins now
Formatting if balance and bet amount
Fixed setting client seed issue
Fixed chat line length so it spans multiple lines

Today I'll be working on smaller updates and cleanup like the above (I have > 30 on my todo list Smiley )

Scuni is working on account page this weekend so we should see that complete soon with all the expected account features and some new.

What is the main differences from the old version? I see this is quite similar to previous version.

Good question, otherwise what would be the point? Smiley

The main things you will see on launch are:

Even faster betting than before
Multi currency support - play and invest
"App" support - casino account and bankroll service so you can create your own casino using our platform.
Investment feature making a return
Free bets to test before deposit
New simpler and easier to use theme (in my oppinion)

However that's just the main differences on initial launch.

There's things that you won't see since they are either behind the scenes or will be released incrementally after launch.
The whole site has been rewritten from scratch with scalability and maintanability in mind.

This allows adding:
new games,
native mobile app support,
bonus and reward systems,
and better promotions to be added easily.

I won't go in to the future additions much here until after the improved dice site is launched Smiley

Nice to see betking will return. Do you have any info on the earnings for appowners?

Thanks.
Yeah at the moment it hasn't been fully decided. I might even negotiate that based on a per app basis.
You can send me a pm for now if you want to discuss further.


Update:
Free bets are not shown to observers.
Bitcoin is now the default currency and Bitcoin stats show at top on page load.

Could use the crown, good idea. That or name it BKCoin?
I came up with "Kingcoin" today. If you like it, feel free to use it.
(sounds like King Kong)


I'm still trying to understand Investments. I've invested 1000 Bitcoin, then lost and won 1000 Bitcoin. Nobody else placed any bets. After this, my investment had a small profit ("Current" larger than what I invested).
If the site didn't earn, and commission is taken, I would expect my Investment shows a small loss. Did I just find a bug? Cheesy
(It could be caused by someone else investing/divesting at the same moment. That's unlikely though, as I tried it several times with the same results.)

Screenshot (edited to take out other investments): I've won and lost 500 Bitcoin after making this investment. This is the result:



Just looked in to this.
It's not a bug.
It's because the profit column shows profit before commission is taken.
Also because of the way leverage works your % of house changes every bet based on total invested and max bet.
So in your specific case you were able to get that small extra amount in current.

I can show calculations at some point to maybe help better explain it.

500 bitcoin? 1000 bitcoin? All I see there is 10? Is there like 990 more bitcoins he puts up somewhere else?
Anyway, the investment seems to be profitable here in Betking than most other places, great news for investors and maybe not so much for gamblers Cheesy

you miss the point of the investment bankroll:usually the maximum payout depend directly
on the total amount of money invested,so what is good for investors is good for gamblers Smiley
also there is no garantee that investors will profit all the time,a lucky whale could dig deep into that bankroll and make investors cry

exactly its good for both ends aside from the investors got some edge if the banks keep winning and keeps earnings from the house edge
good to see that more improvements and progress has been done here and its a great opportunity for those investors who understand the
risk when placing their money into the bankroll. good luck OP.
