OFFICIAL THREAD FOR FEATURES AND WEBSITE DESCRIPTION
SOCIAL
As previous auction's winner @jaitor (See topic https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/on-sale-millionsbtccom-global-blockchain-based-provably-fair-lottery-995595) is not answering our PMs, we are celebrating a new auction with a lower starting price!
We are selling our website mainly due to lack of time.
We spent a great bunch of hours developing the website and we knew that marketing and social media management was going to be a crucial fact to make the website definitely take off.
After we finished developing the website, we had one relaxed month and soon we got contacted to start new bitcoin related projects. Right now we are immersed in a new presumably revolutionary bitcoin related website and it is taking all our time. We are developers after all, this is our passion, and after a second thought we think that selling the website to someone that will have the time to make a good marketing campaign and raise the site to the moon is the best choice.
There's nothing that would make as happier than seeing how the website becomes one of the most respected bitcoin gambling website. All developing job is already done. The website has successfully passed the GO LIVE period and has been working without problems for nearly 4 months. Day after day the website is being better positioned in Google and will have even more traffic. The site has a huge potential and it just has begun. The Sale includes:
1.- The whole

VERIFICATIONSECRET KEYSIn order to ensure that there is no way for the system to change the outcome of a draw, the secret keys used are decided ahead of time. They are not released right away, since they could be used to win draws unfairly. However, the hash of the keys are released before the draws. After the draws, the secret keys are released and users can verify that were provably fair.
HASHESThe system has a file of the hash keys that will be used for future draws. You will be able to check it online.
SECRET KEYS VERIFICATIONSo that is all well and good for the hashes but those are just hashes, not the actual secrets used. After a draw has occurred the system will release the secret used. Then you can verify that the hash of the secret matches the published hash in the hash file. This demonstrates that the system used the secret it promised it would use.
LUCKY NUMBERSThis is how a draw is executed:
Resulting String = hmac_sha512(secret key, bitcoin_block_hash)
That is, the Secret Key is used as the key to an HMAC_SHA512(key, message) function. The message portion of this function (bitcoin_block_hash) is the hash of a bitcoin block chosen pseudo-randomly from 1 to max bitcoin blocks height. In order to calculate the lucky numbers, Hexadecimal Digits from the above HMAC Output are converted to Binary String. Starting from the beginning of the Binary String, 6 Binary Digits are being taken and transformed to decimal. As 6 Binary digits are taken, numbers can be 1-64 (0-63 plus 1). The numbers higher than 50 are ignored and the next 6 binary digits are taken until 2 numbers from 1-50 are obtained. After that, 3 binary digits are taken twice to obtain the 1-8 (0-7 plus 1) stars.
If the 128 HEX HMAC String is not long enough (if a 51-64 number has been obtained in every of the 6 binay digits strings used) another bitcoin block will be pseudo-randomly chosen, although this is very very improbable because there are 84 possible 6 digit long binary strings to be used.
You can verify a draw in an integrated web application.
