I scanned this coin on an online virus testing website and found that there is a Trojan horse virus

AV's often return false positives there's nothing unusual about that, would be better if someone knowledgable had a look around tho

As regards the casino will there be an option to deposit and withdraw with fiat and if so will the option be there to swap from crypto to fiat within the casino with any potential winnings? If so that's how u make this coin go skywards along with the casino, win win for all concerned

Thanks

But trojan horse? If it is false positive, it should not be trojan horse. But I maybe wrong. But for those who want to install their wallet, maybe just compile your own if you can. Also, if they are indeed developing a casino that will integrate this coin, then, maybe there's a reason that this coin will survive this time. But we need to wait how far they are on this project.

The scan results probably detected coinminer, a lot of AV consider them as a malware as they're usually installed without user's consent or even their awareness, while others consider them as a riskware. All three of the files contain coinminer, below is the scan result by virustotal with highest detection of the three.

Generally speaking, Kaspersky Internet Security associates “not-a-virus” with two types of applications: adware and riskware. Both types are not malicious by nature, so they cannot be called viruses. Still, users should know that they are installed; the applications may do something unwanted.

What is riskware?

Riskware is a slightly different matter. Applications of this type were initially created as useful tools, and they may be used on a computer for their stated purposes. But quite often, malefactors install riskware — certainly without the user’s knowledge — to pursue their own goals. You can check out the full list of application types that we consider riskware here.

[...]

Also, miners fall into the riskware category. Miners are applications for mining bitcoins. Needless to say, if it was you who chose to install a miner on your computer, then everything should be all right. But if someone else did it without your consent, then the installed software is consuming your computer’s resources for their gain.

That's correct. Thanks for sharing. The GUI/CLI wallets all have miners attached to it. It's with CryptoNote currencies. You can mine with the daemon.

What's the news? Is the casino already open?
I see that there are only 2 pools and a low hash rate, trading is also at the minimum value.
Developers, are you here?

I guess not ready yet, even his website currently unnaccessible, I think not only for me, it say "Error establishing a database connection" when I try go through https://privatepay.online/
This is looks abandoned one more time to me.

The latest he say about the casino,

The casino is already completed and currently we are busy implementing the PrivatePay RPC into it.

Sure thing, we will leave the link to the casino in the next 24 hours. But, only as a test with test coins.

Edit: Currently waiting for propagation.

"the next 24 hours" what he said was very long, until now still not happen.

I couldn't open their site too. The same problem "Error establishing a database connection". This fact and absence of any activity from members of PrivatePay team means that project can be already dead.

Bought a few at 2 sat. Zero expectations. High hopes!
