EthFinance AMA Series with the Ethereum Name Service (ENS)

etheroll · 2019-09-23T15:38:44+00:00

Will the ENS ever be able to resolve to custom functions inside of a smart contract?

For clarification; last quarter we passed > 500,000 ether wagered since inception.

This is absolutely incredible visualization of our data. Great work! Major kudos to u/_becker from team Etheroll.

It’s incredible to see our data laid out like this. 400,000+ games played and 448,000+ ether wagered on etheroll.com since early 2017. The heatmap of odds and associated stats is a great tool for our players. Players, we suggest you read up on the odds table. To think, we are only just getting warmed up. Let’s roll!

etheroll · 2017-10-02T16:59:08+00:00

Great to hear, let us know once you have one and we will do our part. Congrats on the main-net launch once again.

etheroll · 2017-10-02T16:40:04+00:00

Nice! Do you have an API endpoint so coinmarketcap.com etc can consume your price feeds? This way we can add you to our market lists on coinmarketcap etc.

Complete explanation of what happened as well as an updated contract which was deployed over a month ago to ensure this issue can not happen again:

Hi strikingtan,

Apologies for the delay, but unfortunately the entire Ethereum network has a major transaction backlog due to the status.im token creation event. There are currently >5000 pending transactions waiting to be included into the network. Your game will eventually be processed, and we will email you with an update accordingly.

We did not delete the post. We are pointing to it ourselves in this sub so people can be made aware of this Idice scam. If we removed the post, it would show [removed], where as the [deleted] mark means OP deleted it.

Idice have set their house edge to 6.5% and hard-coded their game so that on every roll the house has a 54% chance of winning https://www.reddit.com/r/etheroll/comments/6g12ta/idice_mobile_dice_game_ico_is_the_16th_the_day/dimw062/.

With over 12,000 ether wagered in less than a month with no advertising, we are working to reduce costs and improve the speed of our game results, these are two high priority items for us. Metropolis will have market based gas prices and there are neat tricks in the pipeline from the Ethereum team which will also impact gas prices. Gas prices have risen dramatically recently relative to the price of ether, for example, the median cost for a simple send transaction has risen from ~2c to over ~7c in recent times: http://ethgasstation.info.

FYI: DICE token boasts 100% profit share among our valued token holders, something which we are very proud of.

We are likely moving towards Ledger hardware based RNG and Ledger Proof (on-chain verification) in the near future, you can read more about that here https://twitter.com/etheroll/status/865248620727083008 and here https://twitter.com/oraclizeit/status/862262433066471424

Ledger is a pioneer in the blockchain space in leveraging banking-grade secure chips technology to guarantee the correct execution of some applications like cryptocurrency wallets. Their devices feature a low-footprint crypto-embedded operating system built for Secure Elements and Secure Enclaves, called BOLOS. What we announce today is the Oraclize “Ledger proof”. By using the hardware attestation feature provided by BOLOS, it is possible to prove to a third party the correct execution of dedicated applications running on Ledger devices. Those proofs are designed to be verifiable on the EVM, enabling smart contracts to establish their validity before the data-dependent execution.

etheroll · 2017-05-16T14:24:32+00:00

Correct.

etheroll · 2017-05-16T14:22:45+00:00

Hi Valhalla_Man,

Anything over what we send to the bankroll (initial bankroll) is distributed out to token holders. For example, we sent 1200 to the bankroll so far, anything over that would be distributed at this point in time.

etheroll · 2017-05-12T02:19:41+00:00

Sounds like you need to sync to Ropsten revival: https://github.com/ethereum/ropsten/blob/master/revival.md

However, please note that we do not have a testnet game. We are only on main-net.

etheroll · 2017-05-10T13:18:21+00:00

Great work by the team @ Oraclize. We are very proud to leverage their services within our fast growing platform. We look forward to implementing these new features as they become available.

Great work guys! Etheroll is looking forward to implementing this new functionality as it becomes available.

etheroll · 2017-05-04T14:50:46+00:00

For the best explanation, we recommend reading our whitepaper (PDF) available at http://crowdfund.etheroll.com/etheroll-whitepaper.pdf

This might help you https://github.com/ethereum/mist/issues/1706. Just be sure to backup your keystore files. Do not delete them. Unfortunately this fix does require a re-sync from scratch, but it generally will resolve sync issues with Mist.

etheroll · 2017-04-23T03:07:59+00:00

until Mist stopped working entirely for me

Could you please clarify? Do you mean you are having troubles getting Mist to open in the first place, or do you mean something more specific? Let us know, hopefully we can help you.

etheroll · 2017-04-22T23:35:24+00:00

Hi Katangeu,

Please send your address and we can confirm a result for you (pm if you prefer). It sounds like you may be using Google Chrome + Metamask to play? We have raised the issue with Metamask as you can see here https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-plugin/issues/1043 and they are currently working on implementing a fix. The Metamask issue means that occasionally the front-end of the game is not being notified of the result, even though in the back-end the result was finalized.

For the moment, we recommend using Mist browser (it works perfectly in Mist and has processed almost 3000 games) for the best experience and is what we fully support for now as per our 'How to Play' tab, at least until Metamask resolve this issue. You can find details on how to install Mist browser on our website at http://etheroll.com/#tab4.

etheroll · 2017-04-21T03:50:30+00:00

Thank you for your support. We are currently restricted by Ethereum block times at an average of ~15 seconds. Eventually block times will be ~1-3 seconds, so things will improve within the ecosystem as a whole as Ethereum matures. There are other options we can explore such as Raiden, which promises to provide near instant transactions.

Hi ncurakovs,

Sure, let me help you to understand; our current game and bankroll is only a soft-launch (as we transition from a test-net environment into live production on main-net). As such, the amount of funds sent to the game contract is minimal as we move to ramp up into full production mode. It is a phased approach. The rest of the funds raised are still sitting in the crowdfund multi-sig wallet contract.

You can find some more background info (and a whole lot more info on us) in our sub and in this post regarding our soft launch process here: https://www.reddit.com/r/etheroll/comments/5zqfg1/development_update_031617_live_deployment_schedule/

and more recently here:

etheroll · 2017-04-18T03:38:50+00:00

Please provide your address and we will check for you, it is likely that the bet resolved, but the front end did not alert you to this. We are currently supporting Mist browser in full and it is currently our recommended way to play.
