On the one hand it is great that LTC has been added to YOLODice. Especially,
because it allows people, who gamble with small amounts to make fast and
cheap deposits once again.

However, I´m wondering whether LTC was really the best addition out of all
the available altcoins. The decision of Charlie Lee to sell all of his Litecoin
doesn´t look particularly promising for the future of the coin. His reasoning
is also doubtful at the very least, because he suddenly discovers a conflict of interest
when previously he had no problem with it while working at Coinbase.
Personally, I think that it is entirely possible that LTC would have never been added
to Coinbase if Lee would have never started working there.

I´m looking forward to the addition of another altcoin that is not LTC.

YoloDice does not cease to amaze. Will there be new contests with a large prize pool?

There already is, in case you missed it earlier in the thread.

Hey Ethan!

Thanks for continuing working on YoloDice as usual Cheesy

Is LTC a one time thing or do you plann in integrating more and more coins as time goes by?
I'm not interested in LTC but I got some stacks of ETH and Monero that could be used for that ^^

Currently BTC and LTC are all we have, but we will be adding more in the future. With the way Ethan re-designed YOLOdice (the backend), it should be much easier for him to add other coins in the future. I know he has considered both ETH and Monero, but he has not reached any conclusions yet, so for now we just have to wait.

Good to see the competition has gone live now.
I would rather bet with litecoin, I don't know about others who are using the site but I love that option being available now.
The more variety the better! Wink

Also didn't notice that glitch before with betting with ltc and it showing it won as btc.

I just bet that user was surprised when he saw that amount for the ltc he spent on the wager to get back 40x more($12000 per btc as $300~ltc) of his winnings. Shocked

More viewed as a bonus! Grin

"Cross-coin betting" - only at YOLOdice.com :-)

I want to know, why YOLOdice are not allowing more than one connection from same API key, even with another one, to bet with same account with two opened bots for example?!

Why do you need to bet from two bots at once?

Mostly is to get some jackpot, many people doing this intentionally to aim the jackpot, I saw many sites that offer jackpot, many people are trying to abuse it by playing more than one bot, more rolls mean higher chances that you will hit the jackpot right? It will be better to have 2 bots rather than 1 bot, more over if the bot is really slow

Ethan, it seems you missed a string Wink

I'm sure they would love to have won that much though

Thanks! The fix is being uploaded. That's my biggest nightmare - mixing coins. Someone bets LTC, but wins BTC :-)

Cheers,
Ethan

A small suggestion: remove LTC option from investment coin select instead of disabling it, since it's pretty frustrating for users to click on something and get absolutely no response.

Also, are you planning to open LTC investments later? ETA?

OK, here's the real reason: all bets are being placed in order, first-in-first-served. No bets can be placed at the very same time, therefore we use database locking and queuing internally.

Now, bets from the same user require a bit different (more) locking and queuing than bets from distinct users. In other words - we can create bets from distinct users with better concurrency (and more throughput) than bets from the same user. Because of this even if we allowed simultaneous betting from multiple clients, there would be no (or very little) performance gains in terms of bets per second.

We want to avoid is keeping a per-user queue of to-be-executed bets on our servers because this would increase resources required to run the service.

Besides, it's not that we "forbid" using multiple clients placing bets at the same time. It's just when client A sends a "create_bet" method and client B sends a request "create_bet" before this first "create_bet" request gets processed, client B gets an error.

Ethan

I am too lazy to test, but does "read_site_data" API already include LTC data?

Hi,

there is an updated API site: https://dev.yolodice.com. Yes, read_site_data include LTC data too.

I might be working on REST API too if anyone is interested.

Cheers,
Ethan

I can see why that would be helpful for some people who just want to scrape the site for data (like dicesites.com), but I'm amazed at the stability of the TLS API. At first I was wary of being able to get it working, but after I did, AM often goes days without a reconnect. Most of the time it reconnects because my network changed/I had to restart my machine.

Nice job with the update, Ethan. From the stats page it looks like LTC investors are only using 1x leverage. Are there plans to support up to 10x in the future?

Also, I know you've addressed this before, but it'd be awesome if YD supported ETH too. Even if you don't believe in the fundamentals of ETH you can't deny that there is a large pool of potential players and investors due to the fact that ETH is the #2 coin. On other sites such as crypto-games and bitvest ETH is almost as popular as LTC, and I'm sure both will continue to grow their share as players look for alternatives to gambling with BTC. Plus you can't spell Ethan without Eth.

I think ETH and in-site exchange will be our priorities. As for investments - I'll keep you updated! Right now 3rd party investors can only invest in BTC. This will probably change, and I will keep you informed!

Cheers,
Ethan

Hello,

My yolodice-api npm package has been updated to reflect the new changes in the API. AM should soon be fully able to handle everything just as before, and anybody using my package can update to the latest version (currently 1.1.7).
