xmr.gg

Cronología del incidente

1. 2026-07-08 Site is still up at 06:48Z (~2 days after the 2026-07-06 announced shutdown). Homepage returns HTTP 200 on clearnet; page content still contains withdrawal language. Betting remains disabled per the operator statement. Interpretation: the shutdown was announced but not yet executed — this is the grace/withdrawal window, not the shutdown itself. Do NOT flip status yet; keep the incident open. Curator to re-check in 40 hours; if site is finally down at that point, flip status="inactive", set incident.resolved={that date}, and set the xmrgg-team maintainer status to hidden.
2. 2026-07-09 Site still HTTP 200 at 22:50Z — day 3 past the announced 2026-07-06 shutdown. Homepage is minimal (~2.9 KB body) and still contains withdrawal language. Grace / withdrawal window is longer than the announcement implied; operator has neither taken the site down nor issued a follow-up announcement extending the window. Do NOT flip status yet — the "withdraw your remaining balance" instructions are exactly what a resolving-in-good-faith shutdown looks like. Next scheduled re-check +40h. If site is finally 404/DNS-fail at that point, flip status="inactive", set incident.resolved to that date, and hide xmrgg-team maintainer.
3. 2026-07-11 Day 5 past the announced 2026-07-06 shutdown. Site still HTTP 200 at 06:51Z but the shape has drifted: the SSR marketing (title, description, schema.org) is now back to normal casino-promotion copy ("Play provably fair casino games with Monero. Slots, Crash, Mines, Plinko... No KYC required. Instant deposits & withdrawals."). The client-side bundle still ships the shutdown banner string ("Betting is disabled. Please withdraw your remaining funds — the site will fully shut down on July 6") gated behind a dismissable localStorage key (xmr.shutdownBanner.dismissed), and /api/status returns 200 — backend is fully alive. Operator has missed their own announced end-date without publishing any follow-up. Two possible reads: (a) operator quietly retracted the shutdown but did not communicate publicly; (b) operator failed to execute and the site is running in indefinite grace. Either way, the shutdown announcement no longer aligns with the operator's current behavior. Continue holding status=active (no shutdown has actually occurred); update incident title to reflect the missed date + ambiguous state so readers of the detail page see the current reality, not the stale announcement. Next re-check +40h.
4. 2026-07-13 Day 7 past announced 2026-07-06 shutdown. Site frontend still HTTP 200 (2918-byte Vite SPA shell, all routes serve the shell). Backend probe results: api.xmr.gg/health returns {status:'healthy', services:{server:'operational', database:'operational', redis:'operational'}}. Frontend SSR marketing (title, description, schema.org) fully reverted to normal casino-promotion copy — 'Play provably fair casino games with Monero. Slots, Crash, Mines, Plinko... No KYC required. Instant deposits & withdrawals.' JS bundle (1.9 MB) still contains: 'Betting is disabled', 'July 6, 2026', 'PAUSED', 'shut down', 'withdraw your remaining' — these strings are gated behind localStorage-dismissable UI. Operator has not published a follow-up to the shutdown announcement and has not formally retracted. Anjouan Gaming regulator seal still loaded (/anj-seal.js) — operator behaves as if still running. Curator read: this is a de-facto retraction without a public statement. Site is NOT down; hidden-status flip is NOT appropriate. Continue holding status=active with the incident on file so readers of /exchanges/xmr-gg see the announced-vs-actual mismatch.
5. 2026-07-14 Day 8 past announced 2026-07-06 shutdown. Material state change on the bundle side: JS bundle size dropped from 1.9 MB (2026-07-13 baseline) to **622 KB** — a ~67% reduction — and the shutdown-banner strings that were still present at the 2026-07-13 check ('Betting is disabled', 'withdraw your remaining', 'July 6, 2026', 'shut down') are all gone. Only generic casino-UI 'PAUSED / Paused' state strings remain, which are game-state text not shutdown copy. Backend health endpoint (api.xmr.gg/health) responds with a live timestamp (2026-07-14T14:55:56Z) and reports server + database + redis all operational. SSR marketing still reads as normal casino-promotion copy. Curator read: this is a **de-facto retraction of the shutdown announcement, executed by code removal rather than a public statement.** The operator did not honor the announced end-date and has now removed the announcement from the shipping bundle without publishing an explanation. Incident moved to status='resolved' — the shutdown is no longer visible or claimed anywhere, and the site is operating normally. Incident block stays on the listing as audit trail for the announced-vs-actual mismatch that occurred between 2026-07-06 and 2026-07-14.
6. 2026-07-16 Day 10 past the announced 2026-07-06 shutdown. Material REVERSAL of the 2026-07-14 finding. Frontend HTML now serves /assets/index-BiGez_7b.js (last-modified 2026-06-29, 1,899,830 bytes) — the SAME bundle asset that was on file before the 2026-07-14 slim-bundle probe. All four shutdown-banner strings ('Betting is disabled', 'withdraw your remaining', 'July 6', 'shut down') are back in the JS bundle. Backend health endpoint still returns server+db+redis operational with a live timestamp (2026-07-16T06:57:44Z). SSR marketing continues to read as normal casino promotion. Curator read: what looked like a de-facto-retraction-by-code-removal on 2026-07-14 has been undone. Two possibilities: (a) the 2026-07-14 slim-bundle was a staging/preview deploy that briefly leaked into prod and has now been restored to the 1.9 MB build, or (b) the operator deliberately re-shipped the banner asset (localStorage-gated, so users who dismissed it earlier will not see it). Either way, the earlier 'quietly retracted by code removal' narrative is no longer accurate as of today. Site is not down; hidden-status flip still not appropriate. Incident status moved back to 'open' — the announced-vs-actual-vs-code-state picture is once again ambiguous, and the reader deserves the current honest read on the listing rather than a resolved-yesterday framing that has been overtaken by today's regression.
7. 2026-07-18 Day 12 past the announced 2026-07-06 shutdown. No state change since the 2026-07-16 reversal-check: frontend still serving /assets/index-BiGez_7b.js (last-modified 2026-06-29, ETag 6a42d739-1cfd36, 1,899,830 bytes) with all four shutdown-banner strings still present in the bundle; backend health endpoint continues to report server + database + redis operational with a live timestamp; SSR marketing still reads as normal casino promotion. Two probe cycles now with identical bundle asset + identical shutdown-string set, suggesting the 2026-07-14 slim-bundle finding was the anomaly and the 1.9 MB banner-in-bundle build is the stable state. Site is not down; hidden-status flip still not appropriate. Incident stays open — the announced-vs-actual-vs-code-state picture continues to be ambiguous (shutdown was announced, missed, briefly appeared retracted at the code level, then reverted), and readers who hit /exchanges/xmr-gg deserve to see that running record. No operator public statement has surfaced today. Next re-check +40h.
8. 2026-07-19 Day 14 past the announced 2026-07-06 shutdown. Third consecutive probe (2026-07-16, 2026-07-18, 2026-07-19) with identical state: frontend serving /assets/index-BiGez_7b.js (last-modified 2026-06-29, ETag 6a42d739-1cfd36, 1,899,830 bytes) — asset hash and byte-count bit-identical across all three checks. All four shutdown-banner strings still present in the bundle. Backend health endpoint continues to report server+database+redis operational with a live timestamp. SSR marketing still reads as normal casino promotion. Curator read: the 1.9 MB banner-in-bundle build is confirmed stable production state; the 2026-07-14 slim-bundle finding really was the anomaly. Two full weeks past the announced end-date with the site running normally and no operator public statement is now itself a durable signal — the announcement is de-facto retracted at the operational level (site keeps running, backend keeps serving) but no clean retraction happened at either the code level (banner strings still shipping) or the communication level (no follow-up post from @xmr_gg). Grade + status unchanged. Incident kept open on the listing so readers see the running record. Next re-check +40h.
9. 2026-07-21 Day 16 past the announced 2026-07-06 shutdown. Fourth consecutive probe (2026-07-16 / 07-18 / 07-19 / 07-21) with bit-identical state: frontend serving /assets/index-BiGez_7b.js (last-modified 2026-06-29, ETag 6a42d739-1cfd36, 1,899,830 bytes). Backend api.xmr.gg/health returns server+db+redis operational (live timestamp 2026-07-21T10:08:18Z). SSR marketing unchanged. 1.9 MB banner-in-bundle build continues as stable production. Two-week+ mark past the announced shutdown; the ambiguity is now durable — site keeps running, backend keeps serving, banner strings keep shipping, operator keeps silent. Grade + status unchanged. Incident stays open. Next re-check +40h.
10. 2026-07-22 Curator stepped away from active tracking on xmr-gg. Flipped status active → held, cleared rating.grade, prepended a REVIEWED AND HELD lead paragraph to the review body naming the 16-day durable ambiguity and the operator silence. Incident stays open on the timeline as the historical record — the value of this listing to a future reader is the 2-week saga, not a grade. Cancelled the +40h wake (2026-07-23) — no more scheduled probes on this row.
