So is Bitsler basically shutting down due to these attacks? Or are there other reasons for the shutdown such as regulations and what-not.

Really sad that the attacks lead to this and I wonder how many of the other casinos will take similiar actions.

Why don't you guys just use Cloudfare like most other websites. Or did you guys get attacked the same way as Bitfinex did earlier in the year, where you received massive spam deposits and it messed up your accounts and wallets.

Hopefully you guys go offline... find ways to maximize your security and come right back online.

Either way.... good luck to you and your future success.

Well, I agree with JanpriX, envy is a bitch. All in all, it can be anyone behind the DDoS, from the competition to some butthurt that didn't manage to scam Bitsler in a way or another, or it can be the cover for some hack attempt too. The internet is full of all kinds of people... not all of them being nice.

C'mon man, everyone runs signature and it's success sector for PD, FJ and more but seems Bitsler gets massive DDOS and it's not a first.
Since they decided to refund members, seems working on website and discussion on future is taken very seriously and there possibly may be sad decisions. It's just a pity to see how a trustworthy website has such a bad situation, we have to keep healthy competitiveness and such actions against Bitsler is very dark and possibly danger against other casinos.

And take note, they host one of the longest signature campaign in this forum that pays significant amount of reward on a weekly basis. Their success in their sector is very clear and maybe, just maybe, that's the reason why they're getting DDoSed right now.

We all know that you are doing your best to overcome this hurdle and we all know that you'll be able to surpass it. It would be great if you could provide us a daily update on what's happening to calm those folks who are quite panicking right now. A simple update (just a few important words) would suffice and will be greatly appreciated by this community. 

It's very sad, despite the fact that I am only promoter, Bitsler means something for me, Bitsler's team is amazing, very supportive and polite. This website did and attracted a lot of customers, every month it had upcoming billionth bet, it's not something that happens in every casino, you guys were top. You have enemy? Good. You have enemies? - Better. This is the worst time and I hope you guys will soon continue regularly.
Seems devans give a hand, will others do the same? No one requests it, I just asked.

Unfortunately we've had to deal with DDoS attacks in the past as well and I'm happy to share some of our experiences and mitigation strategies with you. Don't hesitate to PM me or get in touch with me directly at [email protected] if you think that could be of any help.

The rule is clear, you are not allowed to have more than 2 accounts. So it is clear no matter your accounts are not self-referring or not, but having more than 2 accounts is breaking the rule already. Breaking the rules cant be called as legal activity, of course there is still a chance for you to discuss it with Bitsler but you should accept the decision that will be taken by Bitsler.

I have more than 2 accounts and I do not use it to receive referral money. My account is separate, I do not understand why I subtract too much money, I bet on the site itself. bitler and i have withdrawn the money i received but denied and deleted it. I have enough evidence and evidence to verify the accounts are completely legal and do not have any fraud. If you read it please reply to help me.

Hi all,

I want to apologize for the lack of communication during the past 36 hours since Bitsler was down for maintenance. Those last hours have been really hard for the members of our team, but informing players should always be our priority as it will be now and looking forward. I want to reassure all players who still have funds on Bitsler (balances or pending withdraws), that all your coins are safe and nobody has lost or will lose it, this is our main concern at the moment.

Bitsler is more than just a casino. We always imagined and portrayed Bitsler as a family of people. We consider all members of the community that have a positive effect on the rest of the community as part of this family. Obviously, this feeling is even stronger with people that are working with us and who made a lot of advances in the past possible. During the last few months, Bitsler has been targeted by many attacks and we did our best to fight back and to protect what we built up with you.
However, some of us are really tired and despite all our efforts, it created some internal tensions.

Today our number one priority is to refund all players and it should be done in the next few days where we will give you the details as soon as we will be able to. After that, we need to take a step back and talk together about what we want for the future. Whichever course of action we end up taking will not be easy, but it has to happen none the less and it can't be done in the rush. During this time Bitsler will be down but we will continue to read your messages and will try to answer as many questions as possible. Everything will be done with the utmost transparency and we will communicate on all decisions that could be taken in the following days or weeks.

We want to thank you all for your understanding, patience, and support that some of you always shown us which was amazing. We will do our best to deserve it again once we get through this initial phase.

What's the update on bitsler? When's site going to be back up? Any news? Seems lotta people are left in the dark and dont know where or who else to ask for objective information... Thanks , from Stoner

Who would actually pay them to do the attack? Their competition? You would think their competition already makes good revenue why risk their reputation to DDoS a Bitcoin casino.

I never really understood why a casino would get DDOS.

Generally the only types of profitable DDoS is usually DDoS some small pool so the difficulty goes down so the hackers can mine more coins themselves. Basically this is what happened constantly on coins like Boolberry (BBR). If 99% of people are pool mining and they DDoS every single pool then they have a good chance at solo mining the coin and reaping all the rewards.

i got some decent coin there myself. deposited like 20 minutes before it went down. The dev team runs a good site and im confident it will be up soon and our coins are safe. it just sucks waiting and the possibility that its not alright. Hopefully it will be up soon though.

Hope you guys can fix soon. GL!

is there any chance that the site will be working in the evening?

See, what I told you, their support will never give out any players without notification, and you scare that they are not giving the payout just because the had ddos attacked? Then you must be wrong, see that their clarification there. If you find out that their communication is lacking or need some improvement, you should told them via chat or may be email for the details. If they can improve it they will do it for sure

Not sure where you got the info that admins/owners are from Philippines(which certainly they are not), anyhow, I apologize for the inconvenience you just experienced. Bitsler admins and staffs are from different Time Zones and we try our best to update players. And as much as we want to stay online 24/7, with the current heavy ddos attack(been going on for a week now), Bitsler team decided to put down the servers to avoid any bad incident. As stated above, your coins are safe, and if the down time takes longer, Bitsler Team will manually refund your balance.

PS: Forum is up btw.


'Hackers/Ddosers' actually can/do earn from this, If (just an if, not pointing to anyone) they are being paid to do the attack.

Even though its very unfortunate that your site is getting DDoS, in the past when Bitcoin sites and services have been getting DDoS its usually the healthy sign of a bull market.

Even Bitcointalk forum seems to get DDoS from time to time. The last time I can remember this happening was during the crazy bull run.

No idea why hackers pick times like this because in the end I don't think they actually gain anything. When Bitcoin was getting spam attacked back in Dec-Jan 2018 it was very damaging because many where mad at the $20-$50 they had to pay to get a single transaction confirmed. However I have no idea how hackers benefit when they DDoS a site like Bitsler or a forum like Bitcointalk.

Bitsler has been DDoS attacked, and we had to down our servers for maintenance. We can't predict when the website will be back online for now. Your coins are safe as usual, if this update takes too long we will refund players withdrawals manually via support. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you for your understanding.

Kind Regards,
Bitsler Team

I'm not saying they deliberately want their site to be down, I'm aware websites go down from time to time.
The problem is the severe lack of communication.
I don't even mind if the blister team post a message in their native language as long as I can google translate it.

Sure they take their times just to let you withdraw your 4k doge. It must be something to do with your new account, i played it long ago and never take this long just for withdraw any amount, even I used to low fee. But usually always use higher fee to make it instant withdrawal, so everything is good to go. As panjul said lower than 24 hours is still acceptable



It just not that they are deliberately want this thing but sometimes things happened so they need to fix things, if you have it on other sites may be it will take forever for them to fix this but you should be patient, they will fix this asap, I can guarantee that
