Overview
Peerbet is an online casino that offers up raffles, a wheel game, dice and a full-blown casino. The site got popular through its availability of raffles that the members create and that have no house edge. As time went on, new games were introduced that do have a house edge, such as dice and the wheel spinner.
Features
Peerbet offers up a few very popular games when it comes to the dice and spinning games. The popular games are raffles, wheel and dice. The raffles are created by members of the site, and anyone who has an account is able to create one (or many). They can be created for any amount of Bitcoin per ticket, and as many tickets as someone wishes to make. From there, others can then buy in to the raffle and as soon as all of the tickets are sent out, the results are drawn. The results can be handled instantly (through a random number generator) or by using the hash of the next block found in Bitcoin’s network (which ensures that the number truly was random). In either case, the results are provably fair.
The wheel game is a lot like dice, only with less possible numbers and different reward structures. There is a 1% house edge on the dice game and a 3.2% house edge on the wheel one. Along with this, there is a custom game called PeerDice, which has a 0.3% house edge and allows players to bet high or low together.
