Do you have any proof that Dean Nolan is behind BetKing? Or proof of the existence of the person Dean Nolan?

I will now try to hold him liable for $ millions tax evasion and investment fraud committed.  Wink


To the online gambling community

If you have any kind of info / documents or proof about BetKing or Dean Nolan, please pm?

Hello again game-protect... I just removed the IGNORE I had you on because you made a post in another of the scam Betking threads and then found you posted here to me:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.46388984

I have also been doing some digging around but some users have been very helpful with information they gave me.

Well the truth is when investors called Dean Nolan a scammer because of what he did in the ICO by offering a share of the bankroll profits but it turns in to giving them useless pathetic newly created Betking tokens, then it is understandable those investors and other people will want to see Dean Nolan held responsible.

I will send you a PM with the information I have. Please explain what you intend to do  Grin

40% RS isn’t great though. Some of your competition do it better, look at it this way, I could refer players to you all month then on the 30th day a whale comes in and wipes out any profit I could of accrued throughout the month.

If I send players to a competitor of yours I can be paid my % of the total bet placed win or lose and be paid out instantly and withdraw instantly.

Affiliate payments for September paid out, almost 0.5 Bitcoin.

You can get 40% of profit share (not small % of edge or anything like most sites) actual profit from sports, live dealer and dice!

Check here https://betking.io/affiliate-program


Why are your first affliates, who helped to built up a customer base, ignored?

They are not. Affiliates from when we launched are still getting paid, dicesites, seuntjie and coingamblingreviews for example.
You were banned from the affiliate program for branding BetKing as a scam and promoting other scams and your terrible forum behavior. Not someone any site wants to be affiliated with.
No, when you introduced your new affiliate program, the statistic of all previous affiliates escaped. You said you need to code to make the statistic available again. I have started to call out your scam only weeks after the statistic remained escaped for all first affiliates.

As you like to have wars, I will now write and publicise a Betking scam article on Game Protect website. Google lists our scam articles usually on the first page within the first entries. Wink

BEWARE OF BETKING.io AND DEAN NOLAN!!

So Dean has locked the Betking thread because a few of us were asking questions about his business model and real expenditure of funds related to the ICO. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/betkingio-bkb-token-refunds-70k-refunded-so-far-2150057

Before the thread was locked ETTKS wrote https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.42880775:

" You guys are missing the incredibly obvious. At the time of the ICO, the amount of crypto raised is priced in USD and the token is valued in USD. However by Dean's own admission he holds the crypto and never sold for USD. This means if the value of the crypto goes up (like it has) Dean personally gets free money. But if the value of the crypto went down, Dean can just fold betking up or even just say it can't afford to do buy backs. Which is true. So the whole betking ICO was just a way for Dean to expose himself to profit if crypto went up, and expose himself to nothing if it went down. This is why he has no real reason to work on the site, it was never about it. But being blunt, it's completely investors fault for buying into it. The terms were straight forward and obvious. They bought into the ICO mania, and will need to pay for it. "

So where did all the funds go? If the games were cheap $500 games licenced or purchased and implemented in to a bootstrap website why on earth did Dean have an ICO? Why did people buy in to it and is chazley right when he wrote https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.42653726:

" I've heard Cubeia poker software costs ~$500. Could be wrong, even way off. Even if it was $10000 though (it's not) that's a tiny, tiny fraction of what you raised. Go ahead and focus on semantics to distract from my overall point though. And yes, I do keep up with this because I invested time into trying to stop people from investing in this ICO from the beginning because I knew better. The fact the site is basically abandoned and people lost very large sums of money in the process really sucks for those people. You try to justify it by going on about the USD token value when it's just completely absurd and disingenuous. Then again, you've gotta be able to sleep at night after taking all their crypto so I understand it. Sorry to all those who invested out there. "


And before the thread was locked the user iluvbitcoins was within his rights to ask a simple question:

"How is it possible that our total investment was worth 6.5 million and the token was worth 0.09286$
And now it's worth 14 million and the token is worth 0.0967$."


Is Betking a scam? What is Dean Nolan the "brains" behind Betking playing at?

 Shocked
   

Thanks for aware us and a major crack down against the hackers and scammers keep it up!

He also bought a poker software by Cubeia, but unfortunately poker didn´t really take off due
to a lack of players (poker has been removed if anyone is looking for it on the BetKing website).

I obviously can´t prove that 50 % of the ICO funds ended up in the bankroll. But as I already outlined in
a previous post I can make an educated guess based on the available max win of
10 BTC.

Thank you for your comments.

Those plugins can be purchased for a few hundred US$ so he cannot justify having the ICO. Later adding Livetable affiliate and Sportsbook plugins without actually developing his own software by paying developers from the ICO funds was a breach of the ICO whitepaper. He scammed investors.

The ICO was carried in order for him to claim as much of the funds for his pocket under the guise of "development". Dean Nolan did this because he wanted money, he tried but failed to sell the Betking website because nobody wanted it therefore he had the ICO. No development took place, he launched the same website post-ICO in 2017 that he took down pre-ICO in 2016.

I have no intention of buying any BKB tokens and I agree with some of your claims.
My McDonalds comment was just a joke, I obviously know that you are not going to buy
any tokens.

This is the cryptocurrency world. You aren´t going to see an audit from Bitfinex and you are also
not going to see one from Dean. Most investors were just disappointed that they missed out
on the 2017 bull run, but you can´t really blame Dean for the fact that the site isn´t
doing as much betting volume as it used to. Back in the day it had the biggest limits and
a lot of action and nowadays there are just too many competitors. Sites like Stake and Bustadice
weren´t even around when BetKing was in its prime.

The whole ICO project was designed to make Dean Nolan rich off the back of investors regardless of what happens to them. It was flawed from the start but the way Dean Nolan was promoting the ICO it was clear investors would fall for it. You might be right, once upon a time maybe Betking was "big". It was running long before latter competitors such as STAKE, PRIMEDICE and others basically left it for dead but Dean Nolan has never actually followed through with evidence on his ICO promises. For Dean Nolan to say investors are to blame for almost losing all their investment was because of their lack of "due-diligence" was just another slap in the face for those that parted with cash. When this was highlighted Dean Nolan quickly deleted the post, as was expected.

- what is the cold wallet address where the 50% ICO funds were to be kept
- where is the expenditure list of the 30 million not-for-distribution BKB tokens
- why was Dean Nolan using those 30 million tokens to deduct profits from when it was not supposed to happen
- what were the buyback dates and rates so a profit/loss margin of investors could be calculated
- where is the accountability in milestones where development was made and where are the cost reports

I accept your comments about the audit, this is indeed crypto world so these companies will try to keep things secret as much as possible. Dean Nolan has scammed ICO investors, simple. This Reddit post from chazley makes interesting reading because it is from the time of ICO and shows the mindset Dean Nolan had: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/5gfdxk/betking_trying_to_censor_questions_about_ico/

There is no audit and no explanation about what development took place. The site is identical to the same site he closed in December 2016 and re-opened post ICO in 2017. So none of those 30 million tokens should have been used for "development". Just a couple of months ago he re-added the roulette game he removed as it was a failure and since then he added Livetable affiliate games. None of the funds were used for development so where is the ICO money?

According to the pre-ICO statements 50% of the ICO funds  were going to bankroll. Where is the proof?

Please go ahead and buy as many as you can with your life savings.

Dean Nolan tried selling his website, nobody wanted it. He closed it down, had an ICO, re-opened the same website without explaining where the money went.
An audit would clear everything up including how many tokens he is selling on the website along with everything but Dean Nolan is not allowing that.

It seems Dean Nolan short-changed investors by taking the very little profits the site was making then adding his 30 million tokens to siphon the profits (something he claimed he would not do pre-ICO)
...

This is not accurate. 30 million tokens were reserved for development, marketing and some
other stuff like bounties. Dean has actually been running very generous promotions, which occasionally
were even +EV for the player. These 30 million tokens therefore were not sold to siphon off
money from gullible investors.

If you want to continue making these threads, you should post facts that are actually
true and not mix in falsehoods between your true statements.

You should focus on other stuff like the fact that BKB tokens are still sold on the BetKing
website, which is something that Dean completely ruled out pre-ICO. You even get the same
25 % discount that investors from the pre-sale got back in 2017 if you buy now Grin

Alternatively you could stop making these threads, get a job at McDonalds and buy BKB tokens at a whopping
25 % discount NOW  Shocked Cheesy

https://betking.io/invest

The 30 million tokens that were allegedly kept aside for "development, promotion and legal" were not supposed to be subject to profit sharing as per his Dean Nolan saying in his pre-ICO comments. Yet when you look at the calculation method he was taking "profits" on those 30 million tokens. Where is the audit to show how many remain, how many were used as payment and to whom?

There is no audit and no explanation about what development took place. The site is identical to the same site he closed in December 2016 and re-opened post ICO in 2017.

The 25% discount you refer to are for useless and worthless tokens. Please go ahead and buy as many as you can with your life savings.

Yes, the place is a joke...they rob who they choose, making it harder for people to call it a scam. They target individuals...

Be careful

Thank you for your post.

Please explain how you think they robbed investors during the ICO. In my opinion Dean Nolan did not target individuals it seems clear to me he scammed all investors.

I mentioned several times how Dean Nolan and Betking carried out their ICO scam but what are your opinions on how they did it?

What do the tokens represent that investors that bought into the ICO for? Is it some split of the profit of the website or something? Or is it just that the website and games are run using the token? I think gambling and ICO was a petty big risk as it is. I never invest in ICO's, but I do enjoy playing gambling games for fun.

In a nutshell, investors received tokens. The website profits were to be split between token holders. 100 million tokens were generated. 70 million were split between investors and 30 million retained for use on "development, promotion and legal". The allegations made against Dean Nolan are many but here are a few

-- It seems Dean Nolan short-changed investors by taking the very little profits the site was making then adding his 30 million tokens to siphon the profits (something he claimed he would not do pre-ICO)

-- Of the 30 million retained tokens for "development, promotion and legal" there is no proof he paid developers because there was no difference between the site he closed in 2016 then re-opened in 2017

-- All he did was add plugin affiliate games from Livetable. There was nothing created so where are the funds? Why raise the funds, all $6.5 million of it?

-- He claimed 50% of the ICO funds were to go the bankroll. There is no evidence this ever happened.

-- He has never allowed an external audit and refuses to answer questions about what many see as a scam. He locked the Betking thread then re-opened a moderated one but there is not much going on there anyway.

-- He even blamed investors for lacking "due-diligence" when they gave him their crypto but deleted his post shortly afterwards.

-- This Reddit post from "chazley" explains a lot: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/5gfdxk/betking_trying_to_censor_questions_about_ico/


The list can go on but yes you are right, not only betting ICOs but all ICOs can be risky. The whole nonsense way in which this ICO was run was wrong. It was mentioned he failed to sell his site so he had the ICO as a front to make money without doing anything for development.

If you do enjoy gambling for fun please stay away from Betking. Try stake.com and primedice.com they are operated by non-scammers and have a great reputation.
