vDice.io setting another record high in bets placed 41,830
ETHER WON 10,268 almost doing 1,000+ bets a day on the most popular gaming Dapp,
And New version for Ethreum Wisdom mobile app: integrated support for StellarOrg, vSliceCoin, gnosisPM WeTrustPlatform, it will makes easy to using on android smartphone
https://t.co/sHpmOxpbmVThat's a good milestone of success, I have been seeing progress after progress for Vdice, that big number of ether just simply shows more people are coming to play.
https://www.vdice.io Is the minimum bet 0.22 ETH that seems a bit high?
Good numbers but I guess the risk is that a competitor like EDG could probably look more successful than VDice pretty quickly. For example, VSlice raised a few hundred thousand ETH and EDG raised quite a bit too. Imagine if EDG bet 20k of the ETH they raised on their 90% payout games. They would get back 19.6k ETH but the total ETH won/bet on EDG would be double VDice and considering VSlice's/EDG value is largely based on forward earnings projections, their valuation would jump up from $10 million to
- a doubling in valuation could be worth $millions to them depending on their % ownership share. (On top of it, a lot of the 400 ETH lost would come back to them as profit share anyway.)
Looking forward to the release of the next VSlice game soon though
Yes, you are correct. The min. bet parameter needs to come down.
The dramatic ETH price rise has ramification for a number of factors, not just vDice, but gas on the network etc, etc.
As a result we are aware that, whereas the min. bet parameter was perfect before, now it is too high in $ terms. So we have a bunch of upgrades we are doing to the code for the existing game. Such upgrades include integrating new random data source and bringing it up to current technology generally. This is mainly concerning building in Web3 more comprehensively, this new random datasource and some tweeks to improve bet processing speed and reliability. This has always been on the roadmap. It's essential stuff and it's in process...That update will have new min. bet parameter according to current market and will go live asap.
Right now the focus is getting the next (new) game out the door. Then we can switch back to the dice game upgrades.
The next game is a slot machine (vSlots). The code is done. We’re in the process of switching the vSlots game code to the new datasource.
We decided also to change (mostly remove!) some parts to reduce gas costs for both placing a new bet and for executing the callback transaction.
The new code with those changes will be delivered by tomorrow to our front-end developers. Then they can finish work on their APIs.
The HTML code and design is nearing completion. Then we just stitch all 3 parts together and go live!
We’re also still waiting for the 3rd party code audit by Peter Vessenes team at New Alchemy.
We are assured that is well and truly underway. Once received we’ll publish that for peer review and feedback.
