For any investors who purchased BKB during the ICO in 2017 that may not be in the Telegram group or receive emails.

Quick history:
We launched an ICO in 2017 that raised $6 million.
When we closed the last time, investors still held over $2 million worth of tokens that we were trying to refund but couldn't due to the site not able to turn a profit.
The other investors had sold their tokens in the old buy back program (some made a profit) or were refunded in other ways since then.

We are now in a better place to start refunding the remaining token holders.

The https://betking.io website went live about 6 weeks ago with the purpose of being a convenient place for old token holders to receive refunds.

You can read about the refund process here https://betking.io/token

At this time there is no way for any players to deposit and play.
We don't have time to run BetKing as a casino at this time.

We may open to deposits and add extra games in future if we can find someone to run and market the site.

All BKB holders who had an account and tokens on site after 2019 (after the last software update) are automatically receiving refunds from the pool.

If you have tokens in your own wallet (not on an exchange) or have lost access to your account please email [email protected] for help.
So investors would really be just simply be getting those BKB tokens and not been refunded on the money that the had invested? If Yes, then it would really be that pretty useless considering those coins cant be traded up somewhere or really that actual value.

Basing up on the link given above which mentions;
"BKB are not for sale at this time. BKB can be used to play the Dice game (and other games in future) for a chance to win more BKB. BKB lost while playing games"
https://betking.io/token

So its pointless that they would be getting tokens which they cant really been able to play or make use of those even just wagering into the site
consdering or as mentioned that the site isnt operational as of this moment. So whats the point?

It will be the standard old investment feature. Deposit and invest/divest whenever you like.
In multiple currencies.

Awesome, investment will be in your dice games, all your games, or all apps and games?

All apps and all games. Though we're only launching dice at first.
Also not had many test creating apps yet so that might take a while for people to start using.

Why was risk tolerance lowered to 3x now?
I second that which has not been answered. 4x was already quite low in my opinion. I understand the reason why you don't want users to control their Kelly but you should set a max and leave the user on top of the choice. These are my two cents.

I actually really feel bad for the player, despite that I was slowly losing my investment last few weeks.. but yeh, huge profit day for investors:



Biggest profit spike BetKing has ever seen. If you invested yesterday, you would have had 26% profit in 1 day.

Nice soultion for not have proof of cold wallet. Get audit from dooglus.

You can always divest if you don't trust it.

Dooglus already done an audit, it's posted in the OP! I said I could do this every 6 months or something.

I spoke to most of those in the top 10 investors and they are happy to not have a single proof address as they know they can trust the site.


I just said it was a nice solution. And i trust it and you

Sorry, I had just woke up and misread that. You know that's the sort of thing people troll in the chat so read it wrong.

I'll stay off forums for a few hours after I first wake up Smiley

Will post invested amounts later today

No problem.

Went ahead and invested a bit, going to hope for some nice winnings for BetKing!

Praying over here.

You invested at the right time by the sounds of it. Site profit increased 380 Bitcoin this morning.
After a few weeks of losing almost 500 Bitcoin from site peak profit things are looking up for investors.

Some losses for investors tonight. Player "norightturnplease" won BTC210: https://i.imgur.com/iTU40ay.png



I invested to Betking.io with 1 BTC in last months and wait for 2 weeks, I didnt get profit.

Could you please share your average monthly profit for investors?

If it is fine now, I can invest with my fund.
Players can win (big) too, so there is no guaranteed winnings. In the long-term you should get a profit of course though. You can look at the graphs here: https://dicesites.com/betking to see how the total profit progresses and what your expected profit is based on wagered amounts.

No need to bump the thread really.  I'd say to just put a link to this thread in the OP of the main Betking thread, and keep this updated once a week, similar to how Doog does it.  If you REALLY want to be similar to him, start a blog to keep it updated and link that on the main Betking page as well as the thread.

I'll probably update the OP and bump it.

Hi
I decided to make an official thread for investors of https://betking.io here where I'll do a weekly list of investments with total invested.

Feel free to ask any questions, I may have forgotten something in this first post.

For daily and total wagered, profit, bets, invested stats visit https://dicesites.com/betking to get data going back to November 2014.

To anyone new:
https://betking.io has been open for over 3 years now and has become the most trusted and popular crowdfunded dice/casino site.
We have the most invested, the most wagered and the most profit of all crowdfunded sites.

At this time there's 7079 invested with 393,319 wagered and 6260 profit.

https://betking.io charges commission by taking 25% of the weekly profit (made from player losses) and 25% of the edge on wagered amounts at the time of bet whether the player wins or loses. The weekly profit commission is only charged on new profit.

The crowdfunded bankroll is used on the dice and social dice games. Everything else is funded by https://betking.io

To invest click on the site bankroll link on the left menu of the site or go here https://betking.io/play#siteBankroll

Proof of funds:
We used to keep all investor funds in one cold storage address so that investors could make sure their funds were still safe.
I decided to change to the method of keeping the cold storage addresses private as players were reporting that exchange sites like Coinbase were closing peoples accounts.

I know this is a massive red flag for potential new investors.

I have run the site for a long time though and built up a lot of trust and I am open to the idea of having a trusted member do an audit to prove I still have the funds every few months.

This was last done by dooglus on 7th July 2016
I sent dooglus a signed message from Betking cold storage addresses that he can verify and prove solvency.

I received a signature for a message that said:
  'this is a betking cold storage address'

The address which was used to create the signature contains a little over 4500 BTC.

Dean tells me there's ~100 BTC in the hot wallet too.

So that's a proof of assets. For real proof of solvency we would also need to see a proof of liabilities (ie. investment amounts) to make sure that liabilities don't exceed assets. The danger is that there are 10 investors each having invested around 1000 BTC, so the total liabilities are over 10k. I'm not suggesting that this is the case, merely that it is possible if each investor doesn't have a way of making sure his coins are counted in the claimed total.

Proof of solvency:
As dooglus pointed out above just because I show I own a certain amount of funds doesn't prove solvency.
So here is a list of all invested amounts over 0.01 (user id's removed).
