Instead of quoting you all, I will just mention you here individually unless I quote pieces. However, I see one fear most of you have in common so far and I will try to clarify it here. Some of you assume this game will be pay-to-win. This will not be the case at all. Investing will only give you a small headstart but users who play the game will be the ones ahead in the long run. Some of you even assume that the site is earning huge amounts of money. I've invested roughly $1.500 into design, hiring freelance developers, server upkeep and advertisement. The site has generated a little less than 5 Bitcoin which means I have still not earned any profit from this. If I wanted to steal your money, I could keep the site running as it is until we reach 7 BTC, shut it down and wait for Bitcoin price to rise.
Furthermore, some of you have unrealistic views on user investments. The most common investment into the site is >0.002 Bitcoin. Only twice have we seen a deposit of 0.1 (early in the game where 0.06xxx were withdrawn again, and yesterday which I also believe most will be withdrawn again). The main income for MyBitMine v.1 was not the investments but rather that video captcha we initially had running. This captcha is likely to return in v2.0 (given that the captcha providers have it fixed by then). Please not that it will only return if it is working properly all the time.
There is no one claiming that you need to invest in order to win. I cannot stress this enough: You need to play to win and I am certain that we will see a huge bunch of free users(and users depositing less than 0.002) in the top 300 lists. One good example is the Premium Miner upgrade. This will not give you any bonus towards gaining points but will merely be bringing some comfort into the game.
admin my sugestion for you to those who dont wanna play the new version is why you dont open a round on the same way that is currently....
or can easy raise the ratio conversion.... those way the earnings would be less as the conversion rate would be bigger....
This is not likely to happen. Simply raising the ratio will prove useless in 2 ways. First it will only postpone the problem. Secondly, it will make the game a lot less attractive.
@Greypelt: Yes of course all upgrades will be easier to gain than in the current version. Upgrading should be seemless and in 3 months you will be able to reach a maximum of upgrades (unless some of the upgrades are unlimited).
@Clifhanger12: Donating fiat currency can happen in one of two ways. You can message me directly here and we can set something up, or you can wait until the Crowdfunding page is available, where we will accept Bitcoin, Startcoin & Paypal. Pokemon Red is awesome! I used to play it on an emulator on my computer. These must still be around?
@DARKANGEL6415: He is my partner and head developer of MyBitMine v2.0. You have been speaking with me (the guy in the video) all this time, and I have not introduced my partner until he introduced himself here.
@xhoneyael: Yes I do think you still have a big chance at winning, given that you actually play the game and not only invest and leave. Investing will not put you in the top 300 position on its own. Rather playing the game will do so.
@gphx: First off, we are not promising anything from you investing and never have. There's a reason why you don't get to buy upgrades that gain you more gold. Your investment should not be in order for you to earn anything but rather for your convenience if you want Premium Miner membership or prolonging your captcha time. Secondly, I am not afraid of admitting to who I am. Yes there is whois protection on the domain, but it came for free with the domain order. I can easily turn this off per request.
@Goku90504: Hmm can you explain this in more details? I did not fully understand your suggestion.
