Phew, don't know whether I should feel excited or scared when I see those bets. Even just seeing screenshots is making me feel nauseautic (OK I don't know how to spell) a little. I guess some whales made their Bitcoins a long time ago so they don't feel the pain of losing 8 BTC in a split second. Where else other than with crypto can we see people splash that kind of money around yeah?
Oh and where else can anyone actually win 8 BTC in a single bet? Most casinos right now don't have a max win of more than a few BTC.
Let see 8 BTC roughly equals to 58,000$ right now and I couldn't consider that big money on real casinos, you know the ones you see in Las Vegas and Macau. There are really big spenders in real casinos and you might not see screenshots of their bets but if you actually observe their tables in action you will see the real definition of big gamblers as there bets go way more than 58,000$.
Not sure what the point of your post is since trying to compare online casinos with brick and mortars is like apples and oranges, but $58k is plenty big enough at 'real casinos', considering the average gamblor that walks in the doors of most brick and mortars probably has a few hundred, or maybe a few thousand, to gamble with.
But since you wanted to go down this rabbit hole, comparatively most casinos have a maximum bet on most games much smaller than $58k, which I might add is not even close to the maximum bet allowed on BD. Also, the speed in which you can bet online, especially in something like dice, is not realistically comparable to the speed in which you can play at a conventional brick and mortar casino.
I get that as far as the spectrum goes of course there are whales who bet more than 58k on average, but that doesn't belittle the fact that most people would still consider $58k a substantial amount of money.
P.S. I don't follow FJ or frequent the site, but I haven't heard of anyone ripping dice there, or any games, with these kinds of bets.
