You have to really understand the workings and the weaknesses of the system especially since you are new in this forum, developers can take advantage of your unfamiliarity to cheat you. For example you can check this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1167828.520
Owner says was rigged developer you have to learn from this case

This is great. I'm looking to invest and this sounds like very good information to step in the casino world.

The most important is the marketing. Without marketing nobody will know that you have a Bitcoin casino so you dont have costumers.
And you need have a good advertise. And good people that can make it happen. You need to invest it.

That is correct. For any product to success marking is very important and for good marketing one need to spend quite lot of money. Until site become popular, need a lot of money for advertisements and need to build good reputation to succeed in casino business.

strongly agree. advertising is most needed when you've made a gambling site, you see them (the owner) does not advertise their sites? sites they may be dead, like dustdice, bubblebit, etc, they do not do the promotion and advertising of their websites certainly are not widely known and being dead.

Hi I'm new to this forum and I'm thinking of creating a bitcoin casino - just a simple dice game. Aside from having it hosted offshore, what are the basic steps to have it up and running?

Cheers

the best option is to hire a good developer who can design the website for you because if you are not familiar with website design you are going to encounter a lot of problems in the future like hacking, DDOS, exploits in the script that might lead to you losing your money, and many more.

As i know. the important thing is that you have a very large bankroll. at least 100 BTC
probably when the house was lost. he needs a bigger bankroll to recover a whopping

I am going to test out the free Dice script "Untitled Dice" running with the the Honeypot API. This is going to be an adventure, setting up a Git account and all.

Any resources where I can learn how to script and operate a bitcoin powered website?

Cheers

Its hard to invest to a casino site as your self, a good idea its build you games and connect it to moneypot.com that what we do, you will not earn so much but you have nothing to lose if you on the first week have a big gamber there bet 10 btc and you lose the bet, and the nice thing for moneypot.com is you can invest inside the BR so you get a % of the total BR over time.

I think if people will find out that there is a Bitcoin casino, I think it will be very popular. And many people will use it.

Marketing if done right, could be very easy on this forum. You just pay people to promote with your signature, but at first it can be costly before you generate profits.

@ OP

Sorry but the big hype for building bitcoin casinos and gambling websites is over.
Two years ago was a good time to start such a project.
Now the big ones have taken position on the market and building a new one will be just a loss of time and burning a lot of money.

Not necessarily, there have been many gambling sites that have popped up recently and have succeeded, to name a few, Jackpot Racer, and Da Dice. (Da Dice has fallen apart though, due to revelations that they lied to investors)

You just need to have a really good and unique idea to succeed, or be really good at marketing. It is definitely harder to succeed than two years ago, but it still is possible.

You will need to b innovative in your site, offer soemthing that the other sites are lacking, you can try to to come up with the best graphics out there in a casino, for example that could be a niche since graphic wise casino sites for Bitcoin are pretty poor, or go directly to trying to improve the fees and offer cheaper fees, offer more free credits, offer something so people has an incentive to be on your site instead of other people's sites.

Guess you can also contract people to carry your advertisement on their signatures and pay them just like most sites are doing right now.

That would likely be the worst marketing move for newly created dice site. Sig campaigns are expensive and won't generate much traffic, no one will leave their favourite and trusted sites to move to completely new one, unless you can offer them some solid incentive or something really unique.

Doesn't the Moneypot handle all the 'bitcoin elements' themselves on your behalf? Never used them tbh but I imagine they do.

I won't be able to help you much as I have zero experience in running such site. Let us know how it went though.

Have you got any unique idea how to attract players/investors? Starting yet another 1% dice site won't work, you will need something special.

In my opinion, if you want to create a casino-based Bitcoin. You should have some research about gamblers who have been active in this site, you can organize a survey on the interest of gamblers. If you've found the conclusions of gamblers input, you can simply create a casino-based Bitcoin. And you have to have an acquaintance who is an expert in the field of webmasters, programmers, and Database. Therefore for the sake of continuity of your website.

You will need a lot of money (and I mean a lot) , you should proof to the users that you actually own the amount that you claim having in your casino because people won't deposit anything unless they trust you .
secondly , you should hire a programmer because I'm more then sure that the Casino scripts out there have backdoors and using them will lead to losing money if you get hacked instead of making money

Yes, this is a good advice. Also the programmer you hire should be known to you personally. Don't rely on a programmer you hired online who might be from another part of the world. There were cases in the history of online casinos when such programmers were stealing money from their employers.

The most expensive asset will be your bankroll. And you will have to show proof that you have it or else nobody will gamble on your website. I am guessing at least $100,000 for a new dice site. The design, hosting, etc, will all be cheap in comparison.

god thats a lot. which gambling site do you think only just need few bucks to start with?
