Stop bloating the forum with retarded shit like this @ RationalSpeculator.

Deleting your intellectually content-less posts would be appreciated.

arguing does not equal argument

opinion does not equal argument

Where is the argument?

Your servers are not located in the US and you only accept payments in BTC, so you're not falling under any of their money transmitting AML bullshit.

What I see your real options as are,

1) Leave US access open, any action taken by the US would be futile - Only once they are forced to come up with some abstract reason that you must cease and desist your operations in the US then you might want to consider complying to a website take down. Not only would this undermine the US for using such underhanded actions, but would no doubt stir up media attention (Which is a good thing, because we need these kinds of things in the public eye, there are far too many people still unaware of bitcoins existence at all) If the USA doesn't want it's citizens to access SDice, let them be the ones to blacklist it.

Or

2)Kill your customer base with no effective means of actually protecting yourself from what you're trying to be protected from. If the US wants to fuck you over for providing online gambling...You're still doing it without the site, you're still breaking their laws. You had that crappy stand alone client developed that bypasses this, the way the gambling on the blockchain works bypasses this...

So the best thing you can really do is provide a disclaimer on the website stating that It MAY be against US law to gamble on this website - If you're a citizen of the USA please refrain from gambling here - We won't know if you do though - Achieves the same thing you do.


It's like owning an illegal brothel then saying you'll take down the sign out the front to avoid getting in any trouble.



Also questions posted previously and waiting on response.

- Has the $5000/month cap changed for the new employee?
- How is the conversion calculated (because I see no consistency between months) ...Start/End of the month, btc average month price, expected trend value? The information on how these numbers are calculated are integeral to ensure honest business is being conducted, and that we're not just shitting magic numbers...As well as a demonstration that the last 2 months did have some sort of calculation alg in common so that we can see there was no deceit involved in the past addtional fees.

Ha-ha thanks for the reference still ponders why its in a satoshi dice thread but nice

Ha, it's from the TV show 'Breaking Bad' ..and it's amazing

Where did that come from and I want to know how he makes it legal Ha-ha or scam ad XD

50 Bit a pop is a bit too pricey for me to join also I could not understand the interface well technically I can but that still looks messy it works though. I heard there are advantages with MPEx as they are direct and not passthrus and get an IPO edge not sure about that now with more exchanges though, so besides the 5% dividend cut on funds not sure much else differentiates them, but possibly more choices.
Of course big spenders would want that 5% dividend if they had a million bucks Get their 50 BTC back fast
Or the ability to make passthrus on other exchanges and get 5% for redistributing
Also that 50 BTC was worth more less 50,000 in at current rate assuming 100 bucks at 20 bucks where it would be reasonable 1000 lol

That's because there are, like, 5 people on MPEx that paid the fee to become a member...compared to Havelock, which is open to the publicly created accounts.

Totally unrelated I get the impression there is more sdice trading on havelock than on mpex itself.

For example, right now there have been 86700 shares traded on havelock (16th of May) versus 23800 on mpex (day volume).

The past month it's about the same around 320 000 shares have traded on havelock versus 300 000 on mpex.

This has been discussed some 5/10/20 pages back. Though I have never seen Erik his opinion on this, other then his actions, that speak loudly

Yes, indeed!

Sdice had the choice to announce this change the moment they decided on it, maybe that was some weeks ago, or the moment they would implement it as they did. What difference would it make? I think the effect on the share value would be similar.

That being said, I wouldn't mind being on the insider knowledge list before it hits here

Um... The website is still up in the US.??

Are there plans to expand satoshi dice into other casino games? I feel like there is an opportunity to expand with other games before another online casino pops up with more options. S.dice is the most popular place to bet Bitcoin, but that could change rather quickly if they do not start to offer more gaming options.

Put it in the excel spreadsheet as new recalculations without telling anyone and have people figure it out  
Or
Don't know same way ASIC does it just says what their up to but that's harder without posting

How might investors be made aware of it, without posting here?

Well they did just risk mitigate the whole USA so they can avoid that gambling risk, that said if its just the page and the keys are still around we need to wait till the dividend to see how much it really does affect it.
But that said wonder if the Excel Spreadsheet needs new recalculations
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aiec3-Eo_yO5dHB2dVdiaEltUHAtTWlBcFhXQVBYeGc#gid=0

Agree the risk has been mitigated fairly well, once people start noticing it might appreciate back to old levels sooner than later, that said it would have been nice to have some heads up for investors of what S-Dice was doing so people would not get such a surprise


That rush to 0.12 was close enough for me
