GEMWALLET

I have buil this gemwallet for quering the gemstones in your BTGs. It shows your BTG balance into diamods, rubys, sapphires and emerald, selecting any subset of these. BTG balance is distribuited equitativelly between gems selected. You can set any property like carat, color, clarity, cut, etc, displaying the balance resulting.

The only limitation is you must to have at least 1 BTG in your current balance. Otherwise, controls are deactivated and you just see default conversions.

Get Fun!

4CS GEMSTONE MODEL

This wallet implements a basic 4Cs Gemstone Model. 4Cs model is a grading system for taxing gemstones, including diamond, ruby, sapphire and emerald. The 4Cs are Carat, Color, Clarity and Cut. Shape property have been take into account too.


CARAT.

A carat is an weight unit and is equal to 0.2 grams. Usually, there is an exponential relation of value wih carats.


COLOR.

Is a graded scale, from 'D' to 'Z', beeing D the best grad and Z the worst.

In, diamonds, colorless is better and perfect colorless would be D.

In, rubies, sapphires and emeralds, more definited hue color are more valued, and more intense colors (saturated) are most valued too. Best defined, intense, briliant  colors are graded from D (best) to Z.


CLARITY.

Clarity is referred to the lack of inclussions in gem. To most invisble and smaller inclussions, gem is most valued . The Clarity Scale contains 11 grades,

    FL: Flawless  - No inclusions or blemishes are visible to a skilled grader using 10× magnification
    IF: Internally Flawless - No inclusions and only blemishes are visible to a skilled grader using 10× magnification
    VVS1, VVS2: Very, Very Slightly Included - Inclusions are difficult for a skilled grader to see under 10× magnification
    VS1,  VS2:  Very Slightly Included () - Inclusions are minor and range from difficult to somewhat easy for a skilled grader to see under 10x magnification
    SI1, SI2:  - Inclusions are noticeable to a skilled grader under 10x magnification
    I1, I2, and I3 - Inclusions are obvious under 10× magnification and may affect transparency and brilliance


CUT

Cut is referred to the symmetry, finish, style and proportiosn of cut. Just graded like EXCELLENT, VERY_GOOD, GOOD, FAIR, POOR.


SHAPE

Some of most popular forms are valued too. While round shapes are preferred over all, shape is a a personal choice  rather.

Shapes included are :

    ROUND,
    OVAL,
    PEAR,
    MARQUISE,
    HEART,
    SQUARE,
    SQUARE_EMERALD,
    SQUARE_CUSHION,
    BAGUETTE,
    TAPERED_BAGUETTE,
    RECTANGLE,
    EMERALD_SHAPE,
    CUSHION,
    TRIANGLE,
    TRILLION.

Looking good  8)

DAmm now is possible trading with gems . Excellent!!

Well technically you can but gems are based on value I believe. 1 Carot is .2 BTG for instace. Im not sure how much the other features cost. It will be very interesting to see where it goes from here.

i think of it more like a decoration theme, where the dev (mineral) can actually build features around it ;D

Neat idea nice work.

Very cool! :)
