The building's six accessible levels were connected by elevators. The first floor served as the lobby, featuring a bar. Also connected to the first floor were two closed wings, a gift shop and a hotel. Neither of these wings would ever open, although it was possible to see their contents by freecamming. The second floor had two massive roulette tables and a slur of other games. The third floor had almost exclusively featured card games, and the fourth floor was centered on the [[BitVegas#Bacon Races|Bacon Races]]. The fifth floor was reserved to users who had 1 BTC in their accounts, and had games with higher maximum bets. The top floor was technically the roof, and had several games of skill which did not allow betting.

Upon first joining the server, the number of free gifts a player may receive was set to thirty. Once every fifteen minutes, a player could go to a "Gift Chest" to receive a free gift of .5 mBTC.

After the disappearance of [[Murderscene]], BitVegas had essentially ran out of money by 2014. On January 20, all the games were shut down.

As the server had no bitcoins left, many users were left without any of their remaining deposits.<ref>http://www.reddit.com/r/BitVegas/comments/1zryen/announcement_temporarily_shutting_off_the_server/</ref> A month later, the [[BTCVegas]] project was started as an attempt to recreate BitVegas.
