Hive as its gambling apps as well. They haven’t been very popular on the chain, but overall, that might be a good thing. Occasionally if you want to try your luck and play around a bit, Hive offers you this as well.
Hive is actually a great blockchain for these apps as it offers zero fees for transactions.
In the past years a few of these apps have come and gone but few of them remained and have literally years behind them. Let’s take a look.
The apps that are still around are the following:
There might be some other that I’m not aware of.
The above have developed and updated in the past. New games, new UI, improved tokenomics etc. Epicdice and Kryptogame stands out a bit as they have their own token as well. Users holding the token receive dividends, meaning the earnings are shared with token holders. The tokens are earned while playing in game and they are also traded on Hive-Engine.
The other two games work with a deposit funcition. First you deposit HIVE on the web and then you are playing along.
The period that we will be looking at is 2022.
Because of the why these games are structured the focus of the data will be in Kryptogamers and Epicdice, while for Hive-Roller and HiveSlotGames I will be mentioning the key data on a yearly basis.
Number Of Players
Let’s take a look at the numbers of players.
Here is the chart
As players are counted accounts that have transferred funds to the app.
Overall the number of DAUs is quite small for both of the games. At the beginning, bac in 2020, Kryptogamers was leading with more than 20 DAUs, while in the last year we can see that both of the apps have very similar numbers in the range of 10 to 15 DAUs.
The monthly chart might show a better perspective.
This is for 2022 only. We can see that Kryptogamers are leading here with 50 to 60 players per month in the last months. At the begging of the year these numbers were higher up to 90 players per month. Epicdice has around 30 MAUs now and it has been quite consistent throughout the year.
On a yearly basis the chart for the players looks like this:
The HiveSlotGames comes on the top when we compare the yearly data. More than 350 accounts have deposited to their app. Kryptogamers are following closely with 340 players, then Epicdice, and the Hive-Roller seems to not have a lot of players.
Dividends Payouts
Next the chart for the dividends payouts on a monthly basis.
I have structure the chart on a monthly level for better understanding. The daily ones are quite irregular.
Also this chart only covers Kryptogames and Epicdice, because these two have the dividend option only.
Some ups and down in 2022 in terms of the dividends payouts to token holders. Kryptogamers started the year strong with 2k HIVE payouts, while Epicdice were not that good. But in the next months Epicdice outperformer and in cumulative numbers Epicdice is in the lead with 13.5k HIVE dividends payouts vs 9.5k from Kryptogamers.
Note that these are only Hive payouts, the apps are distributing Steem payouts as well, although those seems to be very low.
Top Accounts Receiving Dividends In 2022
This should be the accounts that hold most of the tokens, aka top token holders.
Here is the chart for Kryptogamers:
The @ctime account is on the top with 1.5k HIVE received as dividends in 2022, followed by @abrockman.
For Epicdice the chart looks like this.
The official account is on the top here with 4k HIVE received, followed by @abrockman with 1.8k HIVE.
Token Price
The chart for the GAMER and EPC token price in terms of HIVE looks like this.
The above is a daily average prices.
Both of these tokens are very illiquid and have low trading volumes. A small buy or sell orders can push the price and we can see that from the chart above that have a lot of ups and downs.
Both of the tokens seem to be hovering around 0.0001 HIVE price. They have a supply in billions and a very small market cap, so the price is low.
The token issuance for both of the tokens is halved on every 10%, but their needs be some activity in the first place.
Overall, the number of players for the Hive gambling apps is quite low, in the range of few dozen per day and a total of few hundred that have played these apps.
Despite this, these apps have been around for a long time, and they have improved their UI, added new games and overall are quite good apps. Some interesting tokenomics in place as well.
If you want to try your luck, have some fun and gamble some Hive, you have that option on the blockchain. Fast and free transactions. And remember always being responsible when it comes to gambling 😊.
All the best

For sure doesn't seem like a lot going on there lol The only one I really knew about was the Krypto Gamers one but the dividend aspect of Epic Dice seems interesting!
Yea not much.... I personaly like Epicdice ... its simple and fast ... need to mention that I hold some small amounts of both of these tokens
I personally don't like gambling but the gambling sites are very popular in Web 2.0 so they are definitely a useful addition to the Hive ecosystem.
Always interesting your posts and data

Thanks, your post are quite amazing as well!
It's so interesting. I haven't use any gambling apps yet. I heard of the Hive poker, that offers free rolls !
Excellent post, I really like following these statistics, but I admit that when I want to play with some HIVE I go to HIVESLOTSGAME
HSG seems to be one of the most active in terms of development and marketing ... the only ones active on twitter
They should do some ad campaings outside of Hive. On Hive obviously there are not too much gamblers - or most of them gamble with DeFi instead 😁.
Lol...

Thanks for showing us those DAPPS, i didnt know that they existed, i have to give a try to some, maybe try with 10 hive and see what happens XD without afraid to the sucess
@dalz I am wondering what's the APR aprox for the GAMER and EPC tokens.
Do you have any number?
OK, so here it is.
For epicdice ... I have received a total of 85 HIVE in 2022, for holding around 5M EPC tokens.
The price of those can vary a lot. Currently the bid and ask are x2 difference. The value of those 5M tokens is 350 HIVE for bid price, and 640 HIVE for ask price.
In APR it goes from 14% to 24%. Plus there is some STEEM that they sent you, so you can add another 5% on top of it ... or 20% to 30% :).
For GAMER payouts were very small in 2022, so less than 10% APR.
wow! really good APR for the EPC tokens.
Congrats! ;)
thanks for sharing!
I dont have yet ... will look at it, and come back to you
