You should pay more attention to what i wrote before, i've said he either use script or did it by manually 

Or his script didn't allow him to skip the bet so he must bet with lowest bet.

It's most likely with a script because there's a small delay when you do it manually and I guess he's using the skip strategy as I remember reading that discussion in the chat while I was lurking.

Afaik placing 1 bit bets is a much faster way of skipping compared to the skip button so it's better to pre roll that way if you have a big bankroll while aiming for big multipliers.

You should pay more attention to his profile I think
Player: ttpol   joined a month ago
Bets: 980,812

How one human could manually place almost one million bets in only one month (or even in several years)?
For me it's just physically impossible.

We never know, he could use a script (it's no way we can use automatic bet with that way) or he did it by manually. Sometimes, we could find a huge multipler if previous bet multipler is huge too, so he "tried" to hit that multipler with bigger bet.

Interesting finding, it shows he's counting and using some kinds of statistics and a martingale IMO. And according to his results it seems to work for him until now. But his amount of bets isn't human, so he must use a bot for that I think.

That is definitely very strong and I suspect not many of us would have the guts to bet that much BTC. But you should also keep in mind that he is most likely not playing with his entire BTC stack, and that this amout of BTC is probably just "play money" for him. Just like when Joe Doe bets $50 on roulette.

Nevertheless, I can not even imagine the enthusiasm when bustadice shows you that you have actually won

Woah, those wins are huge man and I can't imagine how someone feels after winning nearly 1million dollars in a single bet. It must have taken some bankroll and balls to actually try and hit 4k multiplier with 5k bits but he did it and I can only imagine how it feels winning a million dollars in a single bet.

When I checked his profile: https://bustadice.com/player/ttpol he was sitting with a profit of 29BTC which is monumental considering he is chasing such big multipliers and usually when I do that, I lose way more than I win even when I am chasing 100x.

He had a all time high loss of 36+ BTC so its like winning 60 BTC overall, congrats to him!

someone won $1.25 million on 1 bet and of course no one knows about..



time to fire marketing dept for 2nd time



cmon man that. that's advertising gold there


use it, make more $$$$$

'Luck'. And he placed almost a million bets, would be very unusual if he didn't score any high multipliers on any of his bets. His ATL was also below his ATH.

Lurking on that player profile there is something that puzzles me : browsing back to bet #980144 (https://bustadice.com/bet/LXQ31wZjBJp9KErUp1oEAkr0Jd) we can see after placing hunfreds of 1 bit bet at 1.01x all of a sudden he places a 2500 bit bet at 10.000x and hit!!!! (bet crashed at 10408.63x btw).
Just coincidence, incredible luck or a precise strategy?

One interesting part about bustabit is that all user stats are public, including current profit. If you view ttpol's profile, they are up just under 30BTC total!

Those amounts are big. Congratulations to the user in question. I wonder how much he might have lost in total before making those huge wins.

I liked the fact that they could add this table of statistics, not all casino platforms offer this information, this shows that the site is more and more authentic and implements improvements, at first I saw the subject of emails as a possible Annoying, but since the price of Bitcoin has risen and remains in a correction for now, scammers can take advantage of this, good for Bustadice.

Bustadice has proven to be one of the most innovative gambling platform with a tracking record of excellent team, their chat is second to none and well coordinated, with so many player's placing bets in a constant basis.

He also had few other good wins as well : https://bustadice.com/play

Lucky day for him.

Bustadice user "ttpol" had some big wins today!

You can now get historical daily statistics about bustadice–including the BTCXDR rate and its moving average–from https://bustadice.com/bankroll_stats.csv. In addition, the current and upcoming commission rates are shown at https://bustadice.com/invest.

The other significant update I want to announce today affects players as well.

Effective immediately, all users must provide and verify an email address before being able to deposit. The first time a user signs in to an account from a new browser, an authorization link will be sent via email. TOTP-based two-factor authentication will continue to be available as an option for added security.

I realize that this is not only an inconvenience for users but also affects their privacy to a certain degree, so I was hesitant to make this change. However, over the past few weeks phishing attacks on bustabit users have become a much larger problem than they used to be (just read the last few pages of its forum thread). Apart from costing the players that fall victim to these scams a lot of money, phishing threatens to damage bustabit's and bustadice's reputation as many victims end up falsely concluding that bustabit was hacked or even that bustabit itself stole their money.

While I report all phishing domains and apps to their domain registrars, hosting providers and Google as I discover them, it's a losing battle. These companies usually take days or weeks to act and when they finally do the damage is already done. At the same time it takes the scammers only a few hours to upload a new website or app. For this reason I'm afraid requiring email addresses is necessary to protect those users that would otherwise fall victim to these scams.

Side note: Players often ask me what has changed in an update. Starting today you can find patch notes at https://bustadice.com/changelog.

TL;DR: The way the bankroll commission rate is calculated is changing. This only affects bankroll investors, so players can skip to the next post.

---

The intention behind the dynamic commission rate introduced just a few months ago was to reduce the size of the bankroll to a more reasonable one and to find an appropriate commission rate. Today, however, the bankroll is larger than ever. The change clearly isn't fulfilling its purpose, so I am adjusting the formula. At the bankroll's current size of more than $90m this represents a significant increase in the commission rate, which I hope will move investors to realize some of their profits and divest from the bankroll.

Starting on March 2 the commission rate will be calculated like this:

Please see https://bustadice.com/faq#investing for details on when and how the exchange rates are updated and how the commission rate is calculated.

Even though bustadice exclusively uses Bitcoin, the wager volume it sees is stabler in terms of purchasing power. Special drawing rights (XDR) are a currency basket defined by the IMF that consists of USD, EUR, CNY, JPY and GBP. Pegging the commission rate to special drawing rights encourages a reasonable bankroll size regardless of Bitcoin's price without being reliant on any single country's currency.

Despite the huge bets bustabit sometimes sees, more than 99% of its wager volume (!) could be served with a bankroll of "only" $40m. For bustadice, where unlike on bustabit the result of players' bets are not correlated, the number is smaller still. To give a concrete number, I would be happy to see the bankroll decrease by two thirds to about $35m in value. This is what the factor of 80,000,000 XDR targets.

Finally, using the moving average of the exchange rate compensates for the short-term volatility of Bitcoin's price and makes commission rates more predictable.

I owe an apology to bankroll investors for adjusting the formula again so soon. Several people including Ryan suggested incorporating the price of Bitcoin in the calculation back in November, but I wanted to keep things simple and decided on a Bitcoin target instead. Unfortunately the price of Bitcoin had more than doubled less than a month later. With the commission rate now accounting for Bitcoin's price further changes should at most be necessary every few years.

I just watched about 30 seconds in the all tab and counted at least 10 different players. This is sometimes not so easy to track because when players play manually, they appear then only very briefly in the list and are immediately displaced by the script/auto rollers again. It is probably also very dependent on the time how many players are currently online and play, for example, on the weekend more users will play than during the week.

Here you can see the number of daily bets as well as how many BTC are used per day. Quite impressive:
