Well, that is the nature of randomness. I noticed that MEGA hasn’t hit for a while and then it hit a few times in the past weeks. We haven’t found anything suspicious about it - nor did we make any changes to alter it.
You can read more about our provably fair method for jackpots here:

I prefer to discuss the matter in public if you don't mind.
One more time today, the investing site profit is UP and my bankroll is DOWN
Also I notice that the MEGA JACKPOT keep "reseting".... When it was growing day after day during my pasts month of monitoring.
It is irrelevant when you invest - assuming that all other parameters are irrelevant ( i.e bonuses, chests, jackpot seeds etc). You can invest now and receive X% and then someone divests big and your % of the bankroll becomes larger. The opposite can happen too. The profit you get is not dependant on the time you invest
As an investor in the bankroll, and keeping all other parameters equals, will my gain be strictly proportional to the % of the total bankroll I own (or the sooner I invest the bigger my profits will be). Please give details.
First of all, thank you for bringing attention to this - we have spotted errors both in the denomination and in the formula showing on the bankroll. Whilst your profit was shown correctly, the “total website investing profit” was not. The formula was outright wrong and did not include jackpot seeds etc.
We have now updated the formula which now shows Investing Profit from the investor’s point of view (not the website as a whole). We feel this information is more valuable to investors anyway. It's worth noting at the time of this post the Investor's Profit was 35+ BTC (8 or so months after the website's launch)
Now with regards to your investment and the data posted above: as mentioned in a previous post we have recently made updates to the site such adding prize chests and offering bonuses to new users which impacts the bankroll investment performance. The jackpot seeds are also being deducted from the bankroll now (we have posted about this earlier).
This is likely what impacted your performance. Still I am happy to see your ROI is still over 21% in just a few month’s investment. We hope to see it grow
We are confident the new features of the site as well as our new Dice game (info in the next post!) will make our site more attractive to players
Oh yeah and to explain why I'm alarming:
I invested on the Bankroll a bit earlier but wasn't monitoring anything. Then I started monitoring and didn't see any weird behavior (except exceptional returns) until 22th of March, while the jackpot was getting around 2.5BTC. Did they change internal bankroller's rules realizing something ??.
Look at some of my snapshots:
On 2/16/2020, the site's bankroll was 55.55343753 and the Investing site's profit was 37.03121129. My ROI at this time was -0.19%.
On 2/24/2020, the site's bankroll was 58.02477003 and the Investing site's profit was 42.25053009. My ROI at this time was +4.52%.
On 3/2/2020, the site's bankroll was 67.7317264 and the Investing site's profit was 52.80680479. My ROI at this time was +13.17%.
On 3/9/2020, the site's bankroll was 14.99122993 and the Investing site's profit was 47.72030075. My ROI at this time was +9.69%.
On 3/17/2020, the site's bankroll was 22.4784 and the Investing site's profit was 58.6876. My ROI at this time was +34.58%.
On 3/21/2020, the site's bankroll was 33.1453 and the Investing site's profit was 62.3768. My ROI at this time was +42.58%
Then things start shifting:
On 3/23/2020, the site's bankroll was 33.6784 and the Investing site's profit was 62.9199. My ROI at this time was +36.29% --> WTF loosing 6% while the investing keep growing !!!.
On 4/2/2020, the site's bankroll was 32.7101 and the Investing site's profit was 63.5334. My ROI at this time was +30.19%.
On 4/12/2020, the site's bankroll was 27.39536447 and the Investing site's profit was 63.58591385. My ROI at this time was +21.33%.
As you can see the site's benefit keep growing and we, as investors, keep loosing.
We need explanation.
