FAQs

EtherCrash is a crash-style game based on Bustabit, built to run on Ethereum. The rules and math match the original game, with lower fees, faster confirms, and a lower house edge than older BaB versions. EtherCrash is licensed by BaB and adapted for Ethereum.

Place a bet, then watch the multiplier climb from 1x. Cash out whenever you like to lock in your bet times that multiplier. If the round crashes before you cash out, that bet is lost.

An ethos is one millionth of an ether (also known as a szabo). Balances, bets, and transfers on the site are shown in ethos. You can deposit and withdraw from your account page any time the site is accepting them.

Open Register, pick a username, add a recovery email, and save the password shown on the form before you submit. Write that password down somewhere safe. You also need to accept the terms of service and confirm you're of legal age to play where you live.

Open the deposit page, read the safety notes, then reveal your personal deposit address. Send from a wallet you control, not straight from Coinbase or another exchange.

Accepted assets: ETH, USDT, USDC, or wBTC on Ethereum mainnet, or ETH on Base. Everything credits as ethos. Non-ETH assets may convert with up to a 3.5% spread.

Once your transaction is on the blockchain, deposits usually show up within a few minutes. We never wait more than 12 confirmations on Ethereum mainnet. Base ETH deposits are typically much faster.

If you send from an exchange, they often hold the coins for a while before broadcasting, so the delay may be on their side, not ours.

Use the withdrawal page to send ethos to an Ethereum or Base address. Smaller withdrawals that fit the hot wallet are usually processed right away and you'll get a transaction link in your history.

Larger withdrawals may show as pending while funds move from cold storage. That often finishes in under a couple of hours, though it can take longer depending on the time of day.

Each withdrawal takes a fixed network fee off the amount you request: 1,260 ethos on Ethereum mainnet and 250 ethos on Base. Withdrawals are in whole ethos, with a minimum of 999,999,999,999 ethos.

Hot-wallet withdrawals are usually broadcast within a minute. After that, how long it takes to show up depends on the network and the wallet or exchange you're sending to.

1. Go to the withdrawal page and submit a valid address on the correct network.
2. Check your withdrawal history for a transaction link. If it stays Pending for a long time, contact support.
3. On the blockchain explorer, wait for confirmations. Exchanges often need more confirms than a personal wallet before they credit you.

When you withdraw to an exchange or a service you don't fully control, that service decides how many confirmations are required before they credit you. Pick the right network, leave room for the fee, and double-check the deposit address they gave you.

Delays on the exchange side are common. If EtherCrash has already posted a transaction link and the explorer shows confirmations climbing, the wait is usually with the destination, not with us. Still stuck? Ask in chat or open a support ticket.

On the play page, set your bet in ethos and optionally an auto cashout multiplier. During the round you can cash out manually any time before it crashes. If you set an auto cashout, the game tries to cash you out at that multiplier for you.

The Auto tab lets you run a simple strategy: base bet, auto cashout, stop conditions, and what to do after a win or loss (go back to base or multiply the bet). You need to be logged in for Auto bet to run.

Gross profit is the sum of profit from your winning games only. Losses aren't subtracted. Net profit on your account page includes losses and bonuses.

The play page chat has multiple rooms (for example English, other languages, Support, and Spam). Use the room controls above the chat to switch, join more rooms, or leave ones you don't need. English and support-related rooms are the usual places for help and general talk.

Rainbot can drop ethos to players in chat. Current commands:

• #balance Shows your current available balance in rainbot.
• #rainon Rains an amount on a specific user (e.g. #rainon username 1000).
• #rain Rains an amount split evenly across N random players (e.g. #rain 1000 5).

To send ethos straight to another player's account balance (not through rainbot), use the transfer page instead.

Type /ignore username in chat, or use the user actions menu on their name. Manage the list under Settings on the play page, or use /unignore and /ignored to undo or review who you've muted for yourself. Ignoring only hides messages on your side; it isn't a site-wide mute.

Open Transfer, enter the amount, the recipient's username, and your password (plus a 2FA code if you have two-factor on). Transfers can't be reversed, so check the name carefully.

The minimum transfer is 100 ethos.

On the Investment page you can stake ethos into the house bankroll and share in house results, or divest back to your play balance. New investments take a 1% dilution fee. The minimum invest is 50,000 ethos.

Investing means your stake moves with the bankroll. It can go up or down. Only invest what you're comfortable leaving in.

Yes. After a round, you can check the result on our provably fair verifier using the revealed game hash and the public client seed. You can also use the third-party JSBin verifier if you want to inspect the math without trusting our page.

The game math has about a 2% house edge (about 98% RTP). You can inspect the formula on the provably fair verifier.

Roughly 1 in 101 games instant-bust at 0x when the hash is divisible by 101. Those rounds pay nothing. Every other crash point is scaled by 0.99 in the multiplier formula, which takes another ~1%. Together that's about 2% on the game alone.

EtherCrash also pays a social bonus of 0.55% of the amount wagered on non-instant-bust games. Averaged out, that returns about 0.545% of total stakes to players, so the long-run effective edge is closer to 1.45% (about 98.55% RTP). Individual results still swing a lot.

The social bonus is a pot paid to the last players to cash out before the round crashes. It's meant to help skilled timing offset some of the house edge.

0.55% of each player's stake goes into the pot. For example, with four players betting 400, 300, 200, and 100 ethos, the pot holds 5.5 ethos. If the largest bettor wins, they get the full pot. The site uses the rate the largest bettor would have earned (5.5 / 400) and applies that same rate to whoever actually cashed out last, cascading leftover pot down the placements.

If the 100 ethos player wins, they receive 5.5/400 of 100, or 1.375 ethos. That leaves 4.125 ethos for the next best-placed player(s). If the 200 ethos player places second, they're due 2.75 ethos and get it in full. If the 300 ethos player places third, they're due 4.125 but only 1.375 remains, so they get what's left.

About 1% of games instant-bust at 0x with no bonus. All other games put 0.55% of the amount wagered into the bonus pot.

Races are timed competitions where players try to wager the most over a set period. Open the Races tab on the play page to see who's ahead, what the prizes are, and how much time is left.

You'll usually see two races at once: a weekly race (Monday through Sunday, UTC) and a monthly race (the current calendar month, UTC). You can take part in both. Every bet you place while a race is live counts toward that race's total.

Finished races and winners are under Past on the same tab. That's different from the weekly profit standings page, which ranks winners and losers by profit, not by total wagered.

Rankings are based on how much you wager during the race, not on profit or how many times you cash out. Bigger bets and more rounds both help you move up.

The board updates as games finish. If you've wagered but you're outside the top list, you'll still see your own row so you can keep track of where you stand.

Players who break the rules (including multi-accounting) can be removed from a race by staff. If that happens, they drop off the standings and can't win prizes for that race.

Each race lists its prizes on the Races tab (usually 1st, 2nd, and 3rd). Amounts can change from one race to the next, so check the current board for what's up for grabs.

When the timer hits zero, final rankings lock in and winners get prizes credited straight to their ethos balance. There's nothing to claim.

After that, the next weekly or monthly race starts on its own so there's always another one to join.

No. Each person is only allowed one account. Running more than one (sometimes called multi-accounting) isn't allowed.

If we find that someone has been using multiple accounts, we can disqualify all of those accounts from races and other prize promotions. That means none of them would be eligible to win.

Stick to a single account and you'll be fine. If you're unsure about your situation, reach out through support before it becomes a problem.

Open Security and enable 2FA with an authenticator app. You'll scan a QR code (or enter the secret by hand), then confirm with a 6-digit code.

Once it's on, sensitive actions like withdrawals, transfers, investments, password changes, and email updates need a code from your app. If you lose access to your authenticator without a backup, you may be permanently locked out, so save the secret somewhere safe before you enable it.

Logged-in players can open a ticket on Support. Guests can use the public Contact form. You can also ask in the Support chat room on the play page when chat is available.
