Does anyone use Ember to buy bitcoin?
So there's this gambling app called Ember, where you can pay in-app to buy sats that you play with, and whatever winnings you accumulate, you can withdraw to your own wallet. (Say you buy their $10 pack, you get $10 worth of "bonus sats" to play with, according to market price.)
The downside is you have to gamble with the bonus sats and can only withdraw your winnings. BUT if you only buy their packs during one of their promotions, you can get 15-50% more bonus sats for your money. I consider it worth it since the house edge on games is like 1-2%. And it allows me to use Google Pay and credit cards to buy bitcoin, which I wouldn't be able to otherwise.
The app itself gives you free bonus sats per hour to play with as a way of sharing revenue with users, akin to a faucet. You just have to check in daily. It's slow but it's free so why not.
