Finally There's Dice on Steem! Play, Invest & Refer Friends on Magic Dice
The success of any given blockchain can be determined by looking at the amount of practical use-cases it has. Dice games were among the first types of applications that were developed to run directly on many different types of blockchains. Dice games are usually the first applications that pop up after a new blockchain is launched, take EOSBet as an example.
We have not really seen dice games being developed specifically for the Steem platform, well, not before Magic-Dice at least. It's kind of surprising that it took so long, since it's so easy to create a dice game and the potential for making profit is huge.
There already was the option of playing dice with Steem on Luckygames.io, but the dice game itself doesn't use the actual Steem blockchain.
Playing on Magic-Dice
Placing a bet on Magic-Dice is incredibly easy. You can move the slider to change your potential win amount and you can bet using either Steem or Steem Dollars. Once you press the "Roll Dice" button, you can automatically send your bet using SteemConnect or Steem Keychain.
I have played a little bit myself and made a tiny bit of profit. After I placed my first couple of bets, I checked whether they were provably fair, which was the case.
Magic Tokens
Every time you place a bet on Magic-Dice, you will also receive Magic Tokens. These tokens are part of Magic-Dice's profit redistribution scheme, which enables you to earn Steem for your stake on Magic Dice.
The fastest way to earn a lot of Magic Tokens, is by delegating some Steem Power to Magic-Dice. You will earn 100 Magic Tokens per day, for every 100 Steem Power that you have delegated to @magicdice.
Magic Tokens will be turned into an SMT once that option becomes available. In the meantime, you can already send your received dividends to your own Steem account. You will receive 40% of the daily profits, as a Magic Token holder. These are divided proportionally, depending on the amount of Magic Tokens you hold.
You can find more information about Magic Dice dividend payouts on their website
Referrals!
I'm mainly interested in Magic-Dice because they have a very lucrative referral program.
When you refer a new user to Magic-Dice, you earn 10% of the house-edge on all their bets. That's not all though, you also earn an additional 10% of their entire bet as Magic Tokens.
Referral rewards will be sent to your account every day.
Conclusion
Magic-Dice finally offers people a way to play dice on the Steem blockchain! Ideally, I'd want to see auto-roll functionality added, so you can relax while doing multiple bets in a row. Aside from that, the game works great and is a lot of fun to play.
For investors, Magic-Dice allows you to invest your Steem Power into something other than Bid Bots. You're able to invest in a product that does not influence the workings of the Steem Blockchain in any way.
I'm already seeing some great pretty decent activity, with relatively high wagers being made. This shows that there's an enormous potential for profit here.
Nice write up! I played around with Magic Dice a little bit ago after I had spent some time using EOSBet dice. It is a really interesting concept. I know there are a lot of people that have enough EOS that they basically earn a free roll each day just by collecting the dividends. That could end up being really lucrative for them if they just roll the highest odds. Thanks for sharing this, I might have to give it a second look!
I know that Magic Dice also upvotes your posts and comments when you play often enough. I haven't received one yet myself, but it's a nice way of sharing profit.
Very nice! It might be worth it for me to look into delegating to them as well. Thanks for sharing!
I love STEEM, but in terms of development it's lacking ... EOS had a ledger wallet after a few months, it had many casino-like games, and even had a sort of "worker proposal" with their 4B ICO money... meanwhile STEEM has been here for years and only now is it starting to get those things... It's really a shame! We need to get better and develop faster if we are to win this race!!
I need to start using it more, I wanted to use the Martingale betting system, but for that I need more initial money in order to have a large bank...
Hehe, Martingale, a sure way to go bust! In these dice games, you can be sure to have a sequence of 30+ under or over 50 rolls after eachother... Believe me, I have tried it... You need an immense bankroll, and eventually, you will bust...
30 under rolls? The probability of that happening is really really realllllllly low, unless the dice system is messed up and scammy, which I think it isn't but don't really low... I would love for someone with money to check the probabilities of it, just play 100 times and see how many of those times you win vs lose... to be safer, try 1000 times... I don't have the bankroll for it, but I would love to check it out if I had the money for it!
Wow, this is interesting!! I am a little tempted to play, to be honest, but I can just see myself losing a lot of steem...
I might need to try anyway. ;)
I have tried it a couple of times with no luck but plan to give it some more tries :)
It’s giving me a great return so far, looking forward to see more users coming in so that return grows even more. In the meanwhile I’m already on to the next big thing and letting magic dice roll on :D There’s at least three more dice games announced.

I already see a couple of high-rollers, making bets of more than 1000 Steem. At this rate, I'm looking forward to see my profit in a couple of months.
Thanks for using eSteem!
