dice is a universal game, for example sports betting which is so popular these days is not for everybody or every country if you don't watch them.
or the card games (poker,...) are not played all over the world.
but dice can be played by anybody, because it is just simple as rolling a normal dice and see which side stops for you.

i tried many dices gambling sites so all of them are the same if you play with a small amount coin up to 300 (example doge) in this case there is a possibility to win or lose .
But if you play with a big amount 1000-10000 doges , only one possibility you are going to loose.
No luck only programmed system.
thanks

Because dice is nice and a simple gambling game, and the best thing is it's based on luck. But however the gambling site can make it more profitable for them by adding some rules in the game like max bet and roll under/over %49.

Yes, dice game is very easy to play and players no need learn anything before gambling. So many people are playing these easy games. Dice game is only good for playing for fun because most of the time houses will win money due to house edge. Pure luck is needed to win money from dice games.

I think there is also the "false idea" of automated bet through a bot ... with other type of bet you can get easy a negative balance...
For what I remember satoshi dice was one of the most dice site, selled by the owners for x million of dollars.
no way this give a strong help to all btc environment, I ear about btc for this news!

Hey people!

I've got a question for you all:
Why is dice so popular in btc world?

I mean, gambling is not specific to btc, lots of people gamble in fiat no problem with that. But (at least in Europe) dice gamble is something that barely exists! Roulette yes, poker yes, blackjack yes! But dice? Never saw any xD

It's a bit special, maybe dice is a lot more common in the USA or in Russia/China but I find it really specific to bitcoin! And I wonder why dice sites are such a huge trend in the btc gambling world!

Any idea?

That's true as in the real world people prefer casino or poker. Rarely dice games are played but in the case with online gambling websites, people prefer dice games due to the high probability of betting. Also, the highest number of gamblers prefer only dice as it's very popular.

Dice is the easiest games to play for most dimers and with the 98% odds one can bet, it becomes easier to win games and hence it is very popular and one of the best played games online and offline as well people prefer dice games.

I agree on the part, it is a easiest game to play and no need to do any complicated analysis before start playing. But I don't agree, it is a easiest game to win because of house edge and as per me most of the time house will end up wining money in dice game, if we play continuously.

Easiest to play don't mean easiest to make any profit. Most of time they only take your money/BTC.

There isnt any "easy" gambling site to play even sportsbet because every gamblingsite are designed to win, they got house edge to make sure that the house will win so in average most people will lose and only some amount of people that will win , there will be always more loser in other words.

Oh, I think I answered my own question!

Of course dice site is well known on the internet because of all what you said, but it's not known in real life because... It can't!

It just can't! On the internet you can make a program with multiple probabilities, but a dice game in real life would have nothing comparable to an onine dice game!

Last thing to understand is why dice game online are not much more popular with fiat...

Oh.... It's true? No other kind of gambling installed the provably fair feature?
I suppose it can be declined on anything no? Cause it's always a question of "is the site really giving random results or not" so provably fair is just here to check the randomness of the result!


In fact, there are provably fair blackjack, roulette, slot, lottery etc. But exactly as other mentioned, dice gets popular because it is by far the simplest and fastest game and it has a very low house edge.

I often wonder how would I beat dice or even take profits from it? Tried it a couple of times and I always end up losing and not taking the hype of it. The only appealing gambling games for me are blackjack, roulette and poker, among others. I just don't get that similar hype of what you guys are talking about here. :/

I think it's because it's fast to get into. You don't need to think much of it, you just bet one or the other.
If you're too lazy to keep on clicking, most gambling sites got the auto function to keep on rolling.

Couple of reasons I can see that Dice is so popular:
1. Simplicity of the game, easy to play, fast paced game with immediate results.
2. Easy to establish provably fair system.
3. PrimeDice was one of the first good, well established, reputable and trustworthy gambling platform for BTC.

I think that it come from the probably fair thing. Also, this one of the easiest script to write compared to something as complex as roulette or blackjack.

i don't understand why, generally, i don't play more to dice, i like more the casinò with roulette, black jack, poker and sport betting (all in bitcoin). Yes dice can is fast, provably fair, but i like more follow a game (like blackjack o poker) and not see only a  thousand od rolled number  Grin

Dice easiest form of betting and no experience or skill required to get started there so easy to roll a dice, low house is also make it more attractive for high rollers and high payout like 9900x which is really interesting.
