[OLD][CSC]CasinoCoin ♠ A Digital Currency For The Regulated Online Gaming Sector

[Abiky]

well February is running out. What is the current rate of CSC?

I want to know what will really happen for CSC since February is almost over and still no sign of new Prypto cards released for the public. I would have certainly bought some but now that this month is almost over, it makes me think whenever there was a delay in things for CSC. Anyways, trading activity is still not great for the coin but I hope all of this gets fixed real soon as I expect for it to keep up with its promises. I don't want to rush or anything but according to the Casinocoinsites.com it just says a message that it would be launching February 2016.

Introducing Sandcoins: An Alternatively Branded Casinocoin Wallet
The Casinocoin Foundation is proud to announce the release of an alternatively branded Casinocoin wallet named: "Caribbean Sandcoins".
 
This version of the wallet is being released at the request of a partner, who desired to utilize Casinocoins for an ecommerce/merchant application in a major Caribbean country outside the Bahamas. The main issue at hand was that the current gambling-branded wallet would not have been compliant with existing banking regulation in this particular country. In negotiation with this partner, the "Caribbean Sandcoin" name was chosen because it was considered generic, tropical themed, and conformed to the CSC designation.
 

With regard to this release, please be aware of the following:

• The Sandcoin wallet uses a different config directory than the existing Casinocoin wallet
• Both wallets can run simultaneously and independently on the same host
• Wallets can be freely imported between both versions of the wallet
• You can send coins freely from either wallet type to each other
• Sandcoins can be sent to any exchange that currently trades Casinocoins
• Sandcoins will have it's own website located at: http://sandcoins.com/
• Casinocoin wallets and Sandcoin wallets operate on the same chain
• The Sandcoin wallet will track the same casinocoin version numbers

BTW, The Sandcoins readme will be updated shortly. I had a problem with my primary mail on my github account, so now that this is fixed, I've asked Andre to re-invite me to the Sandcoin repo, so that I may update the readme.

The readme should be sorted out soon.

Cheers!

This is an amazing addition to the CasinoCoin network, it completely aligns with your ambitions in the Caribbean!
I've got the wallet download and will do some moving of coins around to test the wallet in a few minutes!

Did you want to write something up for the front post or did you want me to take some bits and pieces from this post ?

it finally opened but I think I am missing the button and menu images.

Everything was/is syncing properly. Old wallet was working fine as well. The only issue is the graphics do not appear.

Hi.
This all sounds to be more like QtQuick issue rather than anything permission-related. Good news is that i have just tried running Wallet installed via installer and it does not show Qml controls as well! (my machine is a virtual machine with win7) Bad news so far is that i dunno how to resolve the issue but stay tuned

Ok seems we found the problem. Older machines or OS could cause the issue. We now use Qt Quick for all those nice GUI features but that causes the wallet to only work properly on OpenGL versions of 2.0 and above. See if you can upgrade your graphics driver as that solved the issue for others. You can use OpenGL Viewer to check your version http://download.cnet.com/OpenGL-Extensions-Viewer/3000-18487_4-34442.html

Did this issue ever get resolved? I just tried using CasinoCoin 2.0.1.0 (finally) in a brand new Windows 10 VM and it is missing the graphics.

BTW, Andre noted that to run both clients side-by-side, yu'd need to change the port on one of them.

Cheers.

Go ahead and add it. I don't have any specific text in mind, but feel free to borrow from the posting.

Have you checked your OpenGL version? As you are running your windows inside a VM you might be running into the same graphics driver issue .....

When the WalletServer and Mobile Clients are done (still planned for Q1) i will create a new lightweight desktop wallet that does not need to run its own blockchain based on the same WalletServer. I will make sure that client will run on all desktops including windows 10 and OSX. You will probabbly also able to import your current desktop wallets into the new mobile clients as the server uses the same wallet architecture.

Sounds like a plan, for the wrong blockchain? or is it just me that thinks this coins should totally not be used for anything else but the gambling industry?

We were just presented with a new possibility to have CSC used in a real life application. Using the same coinsupply for multiple purposes will only increase the value of the coin as it potentially increases the demand for it. It might also help introducing CSC to other exchanges that have issues with the 'other' brandname. I do not see a problem here, ... only new possibilities and current coin holders are not losing any of their coin value because of this, it can only increase.

Thats pretty interesting actually. Cryptos are an excellent currency to be used in casinos, just like the new "SandCoin" since the regulations aren't really there for them. If this goes bigger i can see many casinos from several countries doing the same. Helps to avoid so many rules and boundary's that are in place. Interestingly enough the news hasn't really affected the price at all but who knows maybe the response is delayed to bigger news.

[KickAzzDude]

That's actually genius, couldn't we now get it on bittrex and other exchanges as sandcoins instead since they didn't want a coin that was meant for gambling?

[Suh]

Caribbean SandCoin, nice.  Why stop there though!?

Crime Stoppers Coin - a coin to help raise funds for unsolved mysteries
Cash Store Coin - payday advances sent electronically

This is semi-serious and semi-joking

If this is well received, why not have a few aliases that are practical!?

This is going to be super! Definitely something ideal for CasinoCoin. I can use Sandcoins the same way as Casinocoin which means I could exchange 1 CSC to 1 Sandcoin. I wonder if it will have a different price than CSC, but seeing that it could be exchanged wherever CSC is traded at, I am not so sure. Still, this makes me more interested into CSC. That is why I will keep holding them for long term.

Not good if you can't run the latest version of CSC inside a clean VM.... I am inclined to fork CSC and update it with the latest code from LTC...if only I had the time. If the direction of CSC continues like it is (requiring specific graphic drivers, etc) then maybe I will find the time.

For those who do not want/like installers here is a version of the latest CSC client (2.0.1.0) without the installer:

think of the sandcoin wallet as a variant of the CSC wallet, but with different artwork. At the core, this is what it is. Nothing is different.

If a particular jurisdiction doesn't allow a gambling branded wallet that's where this becomes interesting. I see it as a good experiment for the Caribbean market and if it's successful, possibly it could justify additional co-branding opportunities in the future. Europe is obviously a possibility if a partner there show a particular need and a significant opportunity to expand CSC into new usage or locations.

If CSC is going to overcome barriers in the most difficult places for crypto, it has to be flexible and adaptable.

To complete the co-branding, we should look at putting up a sandcoin themed block explorer. Rudy has been operating two solid csc block explorers. I'll message him and see if this is something he could add.

Oh my god this Alcurex is a shit exchange, it so god damn bad. CSC really needs a new exchange, something that people would trust and use. Actully fck it, an exchange that actually works. Nothing but delayed deposits, offline wallets, slow ass order filling. Feels like that place can also go Gox any time that they get a bit of coin in their wallets.
Sorry for the rant but it really is that bad :/

I agree. I really did not like its interface. Definitely need a beter exchange.
It should be on Yobit or C-CEX at the least.

[wolverine5pl]

Be careful when depositing in alcurex.  I assumed by deposit adress is same as week ago and lost bit of coins

hmm that seems strange. Did you ask Halibut? I would hope that he could correct that in some way.

[Beachguy]

An additional exchange for cSC has been needed for a while.
