Topic: Vulnerabilities in gambling websites in past - page 9. (Read 6980 times)

It's luck that we're ending up on the forum and choosing the casinos we play because of the exposure on the forum.

To be honest, I've seen more active gambling communities in other places (I mentioned one above) but they don't have the same protections like we can enjoy from the trust/support network here. They're all not exclusive (bitcointalk does feel more exclusive because it's crypto only!).

What else would you call us being here if not luck? I wouldn't say I'm here because of intelligence or genius

I believe dealing with issue on casino with or without a license is still the same because customer can’t easily contact license provider about his concern that’s why we can see a lot of complaints posted here in the forum against casino with license. Only there reputation is what they are protecting which is why most of the time a case with valid basis can be solved here is because casino is being pressured by users here to pay the complainant.

In reality casino license is just a design because Curacao don’t check all the complaints throw to the casino that holding there license and sometimes those casino that runs for a long time without a license is more trusted to a new casino that just recently get there license to operate.

Justdice, Freebitcoin and other casino with probably fair system that still running until now is the best example of trusted casino due to there long existence on this business.

This is the only thing that is not good when an online casino does not have a license, there is no opponent against the gambler if he ever gets

into trouble and the gambler should not expect to get his money. Unlike casinos that have a license to operate online,

even if there is a problem, someone will assist customers with the issue they submit to help support.

I got your point as well here, the thing is there's no way one can do without employing hands to serve along with the developers, but this has been a somewhat challenges whenever there's a change of hands from these casino operators, those working with them cannot stay there for live, they will also go and new set of employees will come in, but the company remains and the privacy being with formal employees serves a threat to them especially when hired by  another casino, competition and attacks begins right from there, but i want to believe the advanced casinos acknowledge the goings in this regard and have some means adopted in tackling such.

What you have just explained is good and that is the way the real companies with internet presence have been doing too. But to be honest with you, many of them have their lapses, which is why we have to thoroughly know what the company has to offer before engaging with them. Some companies would employ and develop their experts on securities and upgrades, while others because of the lack of will to pay more will either employ the low-skilled ones or temporarily employ an external specialist that would cause data breaches outside the company. I've been a victim of the last case before.

I don't want to risk going to casino review sites and trying them out one by one because I don't see they will be profitable. The owner of that review site is more profitable because he can get new members who join under him and if that member deposits some money and plays, he will surely get attractive returns.

I prefer the casinos on this forum because I can see how the representatives or even the owners can communicate with everyone here to advance the casino site. From there, there will be a close relationship between the casino owner and us or his representative and we will all take care of each other as you say. And that is what makes trust will grow between us.

There's always cons always attached on that which means that if ever there is some scamming incident then there's no way that we could really able to retrieve our funds since they arent regulated which is the only
problem i do saw into those platforms that doesnt have a license.Its true that as long they do able to make out that kind of transparency or being fair then its no surprise that the community will really be having that
kind of trust and confidence on dealing with it despite on having no license at all.People should really be removing into their minds that having licenses isnt everything or does ensure fairness or credibility.
Although it turns out to be that a standard thing on having one.

I wouldn't call it luck, the community built those casinos and in return those casinos also built the community we’ve in the forum, and the most important part is that this is not an exclusive community, anyone can join and the only thing they need to do is to come to the forum and become active, however the forum format is now not very liked by the people, which prefer a more instant form of communication, and just for that small detail they’re willing to miss the great advantages of belonging to this community.

If the system owned by the casino is not good, the casino will not be able to run for long because the casino will become a target so people can exploit the casino. Users will also definitely move to other casinos without wanting to return to that casino.

Most of the cases we often encounter are problems with withdrawing funds after playing gambling, whether it is withdrawing winnings or withdrawing because they want to move the funds to another wallet. But it could also be because of the casino's suspicion that one customer was proven to have cheated, so the casino blocked their account or delayed withdrawing their money. If that's the case, it's not because of vulnerability but because there are other factors that we may not understand the real problem.

I'm not sure if casinos really need a license, we can see some casinos operating since some years ago without one and they still alive, a couple of examples are freebitco(dot)in and Just-Dice.

And the fun part is that people trust more on a provably fair site, than a site who don't allow users to verify their rolls but they have a license.

The problem to play in a casino without a license is that we can't complain if something goes wrong with it.

These days it's a must to have a casino license if you own a casino, most of the stuff in crypto and blockchain is getting centralized continuously, and simultaneously it's just a matter of time when the government have their own blockchain, I've heard something about Solana that it's a centralized crypto I'm not sure if that's true but I'm going to do quick google search after posting this reply.


It's hard for me to comprehend everything you wrote in this this reply but if I'm getting it correctly then you're talking about gambling being a risky business.
To which i'd deny. Gambling business is currently ruled by top companies and they're  printing the money because it's nearly impossible to win against the casino in long run, I mean in long run it's possible to be lucky here and there but it's quite hard tbh.

In such case, who are the employed developers a casino must be on a look for, while the answer is simple, build a system from within to operate your network for you than employing the ones from outside that could cause alot of funny and e expected dramas at long run, the developers of a casino must be the ones in charge of their system themselves so as to avoid any sudden hack or change, but the need to maintain a rapid upgrade to their system and services rendered needed to be updated just for the benefits of gamblers provided they think less on the cost it might take them to do so

-   What else can I say about what you mentioned, almost everything has a point and what you said is correct. Maybe the only thing I can say about the vulnerability in a gambling platform is that if the system it has is not good, such as not enjoying the issues reported by their users using their platform, then the interface of the gambling platform and games and so on are not fixed yet. And suddenly the accounts of users who will withdraw a large amount due to winnings are blocked, and the management of the Gambling website itself will make a way so that their users cannot withdraw a large amount, even though the complainant has valid proof.

Something like this is probably one of the things that undermine the image of a gambling platform in the crypto space.

You talk about casinos having a place in the hearts of gamblers and I agree, but this only happens for those who have a presence right here in this forum.

And this is the small "problem" I feel with us lucky forum users, especially those who've been around for years. We all have our favorite casinos and bookies here, we're close to the users and each other and even in some cases the owners, so there's a big trust network, and they take care of us, and we take care of each other by ensuring the casinos do their responsibility.

But as I said out there, try going to a casino review site and see 100s of other crypto casinos, who don't have ANN threads on this forum. Try gambling there as much as we do here and then request withdrawals. Check out AskGamblers also and see all their problems there

We don't realize how lucky we are here on this forum.

I guess it not only happened in the past but nowadays, deposit and withdrawal issues are still the most common problem in casinos. From gamblers suspected of cheating in casinos to gamblers who use their money from illegal activities, casinos have started implementing KYC for their members. But some casinos don't implement KYC directly in the beginning but casinos will apply it to their members who are suspected of doing something that could violate their rules.

I still often put my money in the casino so I can start playing the next day and that doesn't mean I'm a daily gambler because I also factor in transaction fees. I don't want to send money multiple times because that could also cause me to spend money on transaction fees. Usually, I deposit some money and use only a small amount for gambling; if I play, it won't take long.

Not really. I've known crypto casinos for a long time but maybe I don't gamble as much as you do

I don't think trusted casinos are too bad at giving big surprises because most of them are satisfied with the surprises. And if many customers are satisfied, the casino already has a place in the hearts of gamblers. This will give benefit the casino so that it can become big and continue to provide satisfactory service to its customers.

This forum is a reference for inexperienced crypto gambling players because they can ask questions, learn, or even complain.

I don't know about withdrawal problems because so far, I haven't had any problems with withdrawals and I can withdraw funds from the casino whenever I want

Of course, gambling site owners must develop their platforms to maintain their reputation and the security of their place of business. The wise gambler knows how to choose a trusted casino and does not risk playing in a casino if the casino looks suspicious. Usually, if I have doubts about a gambling site, I will not play there until there is clarification or explanation from the casino owner or his representative. Besides that, the casino must immediately resolve any problems that occur so that it will not make other gamblers hesitate.

But that continuous movement creates a continuous need of re-programming and re-desing. Doing a proper audit on the code is critical and that is also a quite expensive undertaking for the company. In my view, innovation introduction has to be carefully planned to avoid introducing bugs or even maliciously prepared code inserted in the platform.

I have this assurance that no one is tied to a particular gambling site provided that you're not receiving upto expectation from them in their services, there are a large number of casinos that want to come out shinning and have been putting in consideration many implementation to help them able to achieve that, that's why some casinos only bears name and past reputation but they don't seat to come up with something new for it gamblers, even if at least just a change on the theme and home display of the casino website goes along way to entice the gambler and to make them believe they are working something new and more are still coming.

Then such sites are to be beware of, yet I doubt if this is particularly true. Many gambling sites might be nonchalant truly, yet many sites are working underground but might seem not so to everyone. You might not know because it is not about the appearance that you will recognise the updates and security features put in place by the owner of the sites. The internet is susceptible to attacks at any time, and if anyone has any reason to believe security is lacking with their betting companies, he/she can switch to another.

usually business owners or gambling site owners will continue to develop the site's platform in order to increase the security of the company.
so all gamblers who are in the gambling will no longer doubt the security of the gambling platform.
and i myself sometimes have doubts about some gambling sites that have no purpose to develop these sites to increase the safety and comfort of the gamblers who are in them.

If bet houses and casinos can get licences, then it must have been reason through and fro before any government could grant that kind of wish. It is your responsibility to gamble the way you like as long as you are above 18+, you have no problem with anyone or to be judged the way you gamble.


You see mate, everything in life has an optimum level, people can go over length just to prove something. Gambling is a probability and risk that involves money but the pathetic ones will always go overboard and this thing doesnt just don't happen in gambling alone, it happens in other parts of life, even the crypto we have today, there are thousands of investors who have enjoyed big profits from the bull run and there are others who have lost heavily and still called crypto scam investments, it is their mistake and should deal with it for failing to buy at the bottom.
