RE: Dice games on the blockchain: is it worth to mine?

in #busy6 years ago

Look really forward to that article. Curious if I can use one.
I do all my mining manual. Take a lot of time. Since I did implement my new tactic I do see the losses decrease and the tokens increase.
At the moment we are more or less both. Gamblers and investors. We need to gamble to mine the tokens. Or do I see this wrong?

Currently Epicdice has my full attention. But they have some load problems. The problem is that I just can't keep up against the mining bots. But I miss the technical knowledge to use one!

Really did see some strange strategies!
Thanks for the resteem.
Cheers,
Peter

Sort:  

In a way yes, I guess. We are both gambling and mining, only to me the difference is the approach or intent.

For example...

Intent Miner:
I'm going to mine 100 STEEM worth of SBT, as much as possible— win or lose.

Conscious Gambler:
I'm going to play SteemBet and risk 100 STEEM, hopefully I win.

It's about what your willing to risk, by setting a limit on STEEM both have lowered their risk a lot but the miner has almost 0 risk since his $STEEM is already committed to the system.

The miner is purchasing or investing 100 STEEM to the platform in return for div tokens. The gambler is having fun and entertainment at the cost of STEEM.

Also, like in Proof of Work, you won't always get the same returns while solo mining, more or less.

Just my opinion 😉

It makes sense!
