Hey guys, I've heard alot of good things about primedice and how it has a great community and interface.

I've always wanted to bet there, but for some reason primedice restricts players from using their site in my country, Australia. Why is this?

Also, is it restricted in any other countries?

Maybe it's because of gambling licenses? Although I don't think that is very common in btc gambling. I think they are still bypassing this issue, but maybe some countries are already making things difficult for the btc gambling world, I don't know.

For legal issue, i know satoshibet has closed their site cause if legal issue, although they didn't announce the truth, but yes, this is the reason, stunna wanna keep wealthy but not got to jail, so ban some countries is very necessary.

I never knew australia was restricted, i was aware they pulled out of USA and thats probably a good decision. US gov can flex their muscles at any time and go after websites like we saw with seals.

a lot of countries have different opinion about bitcoins and the way it works, in my opinion because of that they try to ban bitcoins from people usage you can still access it with proxies though, i think that its non sense that such things as banning bitcoins is done

although my country dont ban pd but i have some esport site that i cant access too. bet365 is one of them. it is to prevent people from gamble away their money too easily so these r meant to have some kind of control/prevention. but as u all noe, there is many other similar site.

Tons if not all the bitcoin sites are banned in the UK also, waiting for one of the big mainstream ones to pickup bitcoin, the likes of bet365 or paddypower would be great.

Op if you are from USA or Australia you should probably know that these countries banned every "outside-operated" online casino or similar service.
If you have still access to some of them from US that mean they are either illegal - and still not giving shit about US regulations, or are licensed in US.

Maybe it's because many countries banned primedice then primedice banned back all the countries that block primedice. by the way you can use vpn or proxy, extension browsec to open primedice.

This isn't true primedice would be in trouble if they don't follow certain rules/restrictions, primedice is banned only in some countries where gambling is illegal.
i always use vpn on gambling sites regardless it's banned in my country or not.

I'm prettttty sure that US users get restricted too. only they're too advanced and obsessed with anonymity that they didn't even notice.

haha, that's a good one!

But actually I agree at least partly. PrimeDice is banned in the US as far as I know and nevertheless you can still see some people from the US in the PD chat. You know, if you want something badly you will find a way to do it.)

well you can easily use vpn or proxies in order to access the website in a restricted country, it might be restricted because of a one reason only in my opinion, different countries have different regulations on bitcoin, i hope you will manage to access it and win a lot of money

There is no way primedice would block them just because their country banned their site to be played on their region. The purpose of opening this site is to attract more people to play so what is the point for banning them to play at primedice?

Its not up to them, its what the gambling laws are in that country. There is nothing you can do really.

Yeah it is true that some country banned some sites so you can't play on it. I think you can just change your IP or VPN to continue playing in primedice. There is nothing that you can't do in this world, unless you are not trying anything

But why has primedice banned Australia in particular? They haven't banned players from the United States.

And also, why haven't other sites like crypto-games or FastDice banned players in Australia? Or is it because the Australian government banned primedice in particular?

Like everyone mentioned it. May be Australia that blocked primedice for their people to play on it, we dont even know it. So meanwhile you can try to use VPN or IP changer to play it. Or you can contact primedice support for this matter

I think that due to the limited legislative component in different countries in relation to bitcoin and to the services based on it, imposes some restrictions on these resources in one form or another, but not going beyond General principles, although it may play, the fact that such services can be used anonymously, and that of course the regulators is the desire to eat and what is open for people to talk about it no one will

Have you tried other gambling sites to make sure they open in your country or not? if not,then clearly your country banned these sites for legal issues,May be these sites are not legal in your country..If yes,and only primedice is not opening then primedice banned users from your country and you can know the reason by posting in "Primedice Thread" on bitcointalk.
If you still want to play on primedice at your own risk then just use any secure vpn mate.

It is a common practice because they want to follow the law. Sites that dont restrict access have a higher chance of being looked closer at by the the authorities. Many sites have restrictions in place that forbid specific countries from playing there.
The usual solution is VPS or a VPN as suggested.

If I'm not wrong it is not primedice restrict people to access there website but some countries are blocking primedice site so you can't access. Primedice want more people to play there game but because of its popularity some countries are blocking it. If you want than you can use VAN.

Primedice might be illegal in Australia, bit I never knew that. But why did they restrict us? It's also banned in the US, as someone else has said, bit primedice doesn't restrict Americans...

Is hufflepuff Australian? ;P

I think online gambling is not allowed in some countries and primedice is quite popular site for online gambling so many countries are banned this site. It is not accessible even from Singapore also.
