Hello everybody,
Before I get started, I would like to apologize for my bad english, it is not my mother tongue.
As you can see, I’m rather new to this forum but you can count on me to answer every question you may have.
I’m here to present you
SupraBitcoin, an all-new website I’ve been working on for a few months.
http://suprabitcoin.com/images/presentation-banner.jpgIt’s finally ready for a release and I want your opinion about it before spreading the word everywhere else. My goal is to offer basic mini games to gamble Bitcoins in a friendly and secure way.
Minefield is the first game of a long series on SupraBitcoin (I hope so) and I would like to improve it in order to meet your expectations.
Minefield is played on a grid of eight levels made of 5 squares each. The grid represents the field you have to go through. The main goal of the game is to move step by step selecting one of those 5 squares, knowing that one of them is mined. You are able to leave with your gains at any time when you successfully select a safe square. Of course, the closer you will get to the end, the bigger your reward will be. However, you lose your current bet if you chose the mined square.
http://suprabitcoin.com/images/presentation-grid.jpgI know this kind of games have been around for some time now, but I want to release them in a nice, user-friendly way, with a few interesting features and improvements compared to current similar games, like :
- A reasonable house edge down to 1.16%;
- Clearly displayed statistics to show that I don’t intent to steal from players;
- User account system to bring more security to players, custom bonuses and easy-to-use wallet;
- Strong security for users data. Most of them are stored with a strong cryptographic hash function (SHA-512 with salt);
- A guaranteed anonymity, considering IP are not kept and you are not forced to give your email address;
- Fast and simple ways to deposit, bet and withdraw. Transactions are automated, and instant in most cases;
- A weekly Jackpot, allowing every registered player to try to win Bitcoins even if they don’t bet money;
- An advanced affiliate system gives you the possibility to get back some of your losses and increase your chances to win the weekly jackpot.
A little more information about some of the most interesting features (the jackpot and the affiliate system) :
Every Monday after midnight, the jackpot (2% of each lost bet) is randomly granted to a player. The probability to win the jackpot is directly proportional to the number of jackpot points owned by each individual player.
A user receives jackpot points when :
- He invites a new player with a valid email address (+5 points).
- He joins SupraBitcoin for the first time with a confirmed account (+5 points).
- He reaches the end of the grids with a real bet (+3 points).
After the jackpot is won, the jackpot points of every player are reset and the jackpot itself restart at 0.0001 BTC.
By clicking the “Generate your Link” button on the Game page, you will receive a unique link that you can share with your friends to invite them to join SupraBitcoin. You can also use Twitter or Facebook to share your link by clicking the share button on the same page.
The people who use your link to join the game will appear in your affiliates list, where you can know their accounts status.
For each affiliate with a confirmed email address,
you will receive 1% of your losses as a payback bonus (and the 5 jackpot points).
The payback bonus is capped at 8%, but you will continue to receive jackpot points for each new affiliate even if you reach this limit.
If you want more informations or details, you can read the
F.A.Q of SupraBitcoin.
As you might expect, I don’t aim to do a bunchload of money out of this site. I just hope to cover the cost of the servers in order to develop new and interesting contents.
In fact, I already have ideas for other games but they will be more complicated to create than Minefield (it’s the main reason I started with that one).
The game is fully functional but I want to make sure there is no major trouble before spreading it. Despite all my efforts and some extensive testings, there may be undetected bugs in it, so don’t hesitate to point them out and I will fix them as soon as possible.
The minimum bet is set to 0.0001 BTC but
you can play the game for free, and signing up already gives you a chance to win the jackpot.
I want you to understand I’m here to offer a content designed for players. That may sound silly given the simplicity of the first game released, but I intend to develop more and more games with the time going.
I welcome all users of Bitcointalk who enjoy betting, and look forward to receive their feedback. Let me know what you think !
