We're implementing changes as suggested here and on our support channels. Updates will be posted soon.
Interested in knowing of any updates to your site.
I give you a better suggestion since you want people to deposit BTC and test your system.
Look at this guys: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/get-paid-for-testing-bitcoin-mixer-banned-mixer-and-leave-an-honest-review-about-us-5140688
They are paying the users upfront to test their system and you can do the same. Ask the very trusted members in the forum to test your system and give them the required BTC to deposit.
This way users will not need to trust a new business with their own money.

Interesting idea. I'll pitch it to the team.
Since you are testing the BETA version and very new to the market, my suggestion is to giveaway registration bonus (without any need of depositing, may be to some number of users only. Say first 500 as example) with some very hard goal to achieve like 30x play through of the initial bonus for minimum odd of 1.8 or 1.9.
This way new users will be attracted to have the free bonus.
Thanks for the suggestion.This way new users will be attracted to have the free bonus.
We've gone with the blanket 10% bonus on all bets for now so that we can test anonymous betting as well as registered betting.
The incentives will change as the testing continues.

Edit:
Spirebets, can you show a proof of bankroll? You seem to be willing to take a 0.5 BTC wager on a parlay with odds of 4191, and I find it very hard to believe that you can afford a 2000 coin win. If you can't, please implement proper dynamic limits based on your bankroll size.
Bets will not be matched if the potential win isn't within our liability limit. Anything on the betslip is helpful for building your bet, but the final matching is done once you hit "place bet" and the system attempts to match it.
Can you sign a message from an address with a decent amount of coins to prove that you do have funds to payout? What happens if the bet isn't matched? Is there any way to see the limit?
Does the 10% bonus have any restriction on the plays after they are credited? As in, do I have to wager it or is it mine?
And is the 10% bonus applied to the bet amount or to the winnings?
As in, if I bet $10, and the bet is cancelled so that it returns to me my wager, am I getting back $11 or $10?
Sorry for questions but just like to be clear:)

The 10% bonus is yours. There are no restrictions on it.
The bonus is applied to the winnings.

Thanks guys, I'm told the BCTBETA code has been used successfully a number of times.
Please let me know if the betting and payments system needs any work.

OP I like some functions you offer but to be fair website looks very poor, better to get some good template, look your opponents, their website looks very attractive. Also when it says: 17 Available Matches, does this means we are limited in offered games? Because can't find more than one page too. It will be good for your business to make filter for games, for example make one block for La Leagua, another one for Serie A, Champions League and etc. This is really must to have even for beta project. Also include some details on betting, for example number of corners and others which top casinos offer.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll pass it on to the team.

The address will be sent.
When a bet isn't matched, the user is shown an error message to that effect. We'll have to find a way of indicating dynamic odds limits to clear things up.

We're going to maintain competitive margins. Lower margins will drive off users, so nobody wins.
Hopefully your next release has competitive margins since this beta version does notEdit:

Sorry for the delay. Your comments have been answered.
It's a pity that you won't give it a chance, but we understand your position.
I don't like that to deposit on the spirebets account you pass with coinbase by paying in USD.
I could experiment, but I must be free to use my BTC / ETH addresses both to deposit and to withdraw.
To withdraw you have indicated the fees to be paid, but it is not known if you pay taxes on deposits.
The 10% deposit promotion is not published on the site.
Finally, a very important aspect is to know the maximum bet you accept, because if you deposit 1 BTC I don't have to have the negative surprise, that you only accept 0.2 BTC of maximum bet

The USD/Coinbase system was used earlier in development, but subsequently dropped. The help documentation has been updated to reflect the update.
ETH and other popular currencies are coming in an update that will be released later in the beta.
There are no taxes/fees on deposits, just network fees on withdrawal as indicated.
The 10% promotion is an exclusive promotion created for bitcointalk users participating in the beta, so it isn't promoted on the site.
The maximum deposit for anonymous betting is indicated on the payment page. We are adding minimum and maximum indicators as suggested by motodor.
Please let me know if you have any more questions or if you need clarification.

Finally there is a new sportsbook that is a bit similar to directbet where users are not required to have an account to place bets.
When you mentioned directbet I had to check them out and I must say they are quite similar... though I see Spirebets has the edge with its better user interface, bet suggestions and so on, waiting to try them out to see how fast the settle wagers. I haven't checked about the odds you offers compared to other sportsbook sites, so I have no ideas whether your odds is competitive enough or not.
Odds look competitive with other sites I use, only drawback is less games to bet on 
guess will have to wait for alpha version. I will wait for another crypto to enter as a payment, the site looks perfect I'm very happy to see it spirebets looks like Directbet but if you add some well known cryptocurrencies it will definitely be crowded.
Thanks for the feedback. More currencies are coming soon.
