Thank you ! Much fun Smiley

No way to compare that with satoshimines or the others ... they have nothing to do with minesweeper.

You could as well just throw some balls in a bag and take one out each time. Is that minesweeper then ?

Guess not Smiley

Hi 2ero, good you liked it and thanks for the valuable review you sent us by PM!

Indeed an important issue you point out here: we have chosen a fundamentally different approach than all other 'minesweeper-in-name-only' games available that are based on pure luck.

At this moment BitcoinMinesweeper.com is the only real minesweeper-game on the internet where you can play for bitcoins.

Good insight; yes this is true. By choosing your own strategy you may improve or worsen your chances compared to following hints.


Interesting! I ran a greedy algorithm (...), and (...) haven't been able to win more than 7% of the games (which would be a 23% house edge).

(...) is your greedy solver better than mine? If I follow your hints, what % of the games will I win? If the difference in greedy algorithms is the difference between a 23 and 2% house edge, it seems quote possible that something more optimal will put you in -EV territory?


TL;DR: hints are based on solver recommendations. our solver has a >9.8% win chance on the 10x game (vs. 7% for yours). A better solver would put us in -EV.

---

A 10x payout after commission implies a 10.204x payout before commission, which implies a 9.8% chance of winning. Our solver gets at least those implied rates over a statistically relevant number of games.

By the way, we are working on ways to make those numbers independently verifiable without giving away the solver code. This is not an easy task, but we want to as transparant as possible.

(...) is this like the normal Minesweeper on Windows? Or is it a different version, like for example the coinsweeper in my signature?
Hi KingZee,

Gameplay at BitcoinMinesweeper.com is almost identical to the 'normal'
minesweeper on Windows. But.. on windows, you can't win Bitcoin,
and at BitcoinMinesweeper.com, you can!
