Crypto Kingdom - 1991 Retro Virtual World(City)

[tombots]

Dear tombot,

As a relative newcomer to the Kingdom, you have done very well in your business dealings, and have managed to become one of the most prominent collectors of historical gold coins, even topping the contest a few years ago, shaming established hoarders. Your persistence and savvy in pursuit of this goal is inspiring to both new and veterans of the trade. I wish you continued luck in your quest for gold.

Please find 10mil M2 enclosed,

Sincerely Yours,

Erin the Red

Dear Erin the Red,

Thank you very much for your very kind words and thank you very much for your large M2 gift!

Sincerely Yours,

Baron Tombot

Erin was heading back home when she saw luigi of Rome walking down the street, counting his CK tokens again. Seeing him so occuppied by the calculations, grabbing CK from the backpocket and placing them in the front pocket duly counted, Erin sneaked behind him and, undetected, poured 125 million M2 in his backpocket. She left quickly, trying not to laught at the idea of luigi spending the whole night counting.

So it was you! Dastardly! I only just now finished counting!

The energy is so high!

25 LL shares to the next 5 posters (with IDs)!

a great many thanks
I'm gonna have to think of something to keep the love going. A good problem to have.

To his most gracious PJ, Wizard Developer, The Duke of Serbia,

We are grateful for your recent gift, as we are for the years of dedication, diligence, and expertise that you have given to The Kingdom. We drink to your health, and while we may wield a cursed sword in battle, we bring the blessings of kindness and fondness to those closest and dearest to our hearts. It is in this spirit, the spirit of giving, the spirit of love, we bestow upon you the honor of the Wizard's Castle.

Rightfully, and well deserved,

So once upon a time, an idea was spawned in IRC to create a tradable entity for Crypto Kingdom that could be added to an exchange. The idea was to create something that was on the blockchain, immutable, and could eventually be tied to the ingame asset CK.  After we talked for a while, we decided that CKGAME was a good choice, and Luigi created the token with 100,000 issuance as a Counterparty asset. To this day, it has been sitting with zero utility.

Well, that time has come to an end. I propose that we put that asset into use. It currently lives, completely unused, on the Counterparty blockchain: https://counterpartychain.io/holders/ckgame. What needs to happen before this can be useful to Crypto Kingdom?  I propose the following steps:

1. Issue an additional 10,396,263 so the total of CKGAME tokens is 10,496,263 which matches the amount of the in-game item CK
2. Lock the token inside Counterparty so that no more can ever be produced
3. Get a list of all current CK holders
4. Add a field in the profile for the character that is titled "CK Counterparty Address"
5. Once in-game players fill it out, they can send a note to Luigi and he can send out the amount requested to the address submitted. Now that we have all experienced the wonderful spirit of giving, we can take some of the gifted XMR to spend on the fees to dole out the asset to holders on the blockchain.

Putting this plan into place will render the CK market inside the game moot (for now).  It will likely need to be delisted from the game.  There is still the issue of dividends, but this can be solved if we implement the previous steps. If you are a ck player who has registered an address, The dividend script could query the address in question to get the amount of CKGAME the user holds, then pay the normal dividend in M inside the game. Assets that are held by people who are not players will not get a dividend. This both rewards existing players, and serves as an incentive mechanism to get players to join the game and "deposit" their CKGAME by registering an address.

Why should we do this?
Once we have the ingame CK asset mapped to a blockchain-based CKGAME asset with the game holders holding the 100% emitted token, we can then approach exchanges to get our token added. This will not only raise awareness of CKGAME and thus Crypto Kingdom, but will also add speculators into the asset with external BTC and potentially raise the price of the token and benefit all existing holders. The current rate sits at 1 CK = 0.007 XMR or 0.00008162 BTC. There is no reason this can't change with the influence of an outside party.  

Some have mentioned that exchanges need to be bribed. I say, fine, let's take some of the love that has been spread and crowdfund a kitty of CK and BTC to approach exchanges with so we can get it added. It's a small price to pay for some invaluable marketing.  Once we get this on an exchange, people will eat it up because it is backed by a real game of 3 years, an active and passionate community, and something that is an income generator.  

Further on down the road, we can add a Counterparty depository address system, create an ingame CKGAME token that has a variable total amount that depends on the local wallet's balance on a per player basis, totaled.  This way, people can deposit the CKGAME they bought from Poloniex straight into the game to bring not only players, but actual assets other than XMR as well.

I'm curious to see what you all think about this proposition, and whether it could happen.

First thought that comes to mind - there are significant percents of altcoin emissions sitting in exchange wallets. Would this be basically trading one centralization for another? Next - how to keep game log in match with exchange log whoch is isually an off chain tx until withdrawn? Would we expect that exhanges to voluntarily share this data?

To speak to your thoughts:  

there are significant percents of altcoin emissions sitting in exchange wallets. Would this be basically trading one centralization for another?

it is the person's choice to keep this in a centralized wallet. This is their own problem and if they don't use a decentralized solution, there's not much we can do about it. I have a large number of pepecash/rare pepes in counterparty, and I keep them all in a web wallet that runs auth on the client side. I can get to them anywhere with my private key.

how to keep game log in match with exchange log whoch is isually an off chain tx until withdrawn? Would we expect that exhanges to voluntarily share this data?

The nice part about this is that if the player has put their counterparty address into the ck game, we send out the coins and they are no longer part of the Crypto Kingdom "CK" token, but rather the CKGAME token. At some point, PJ could implement a CKGAME depository page which would then help with this issue. Another idea mentioned in IRC is to use the same method that saddam uses for XMR, but for the CKGAME token. you deposit, he credits you in-game. You withdraw, he sends to your address and debits. However, I think the easiest solution is to halt trading ingame and distribute out of the game. This way there is no reason to sync, as the blockchain is really good at that-including being transparent about it as well. Of course, there are probably many better ways to do this. Let's come up with the winning idea!

Just want to draw attention to this point in particular. All of the CK related threads have a great number of pageviews and activity for assets that don't really trade anywhere. As far as I know, there is nothing with this much activity in the cryptospace that isn't "listed" anywhere.

Overall, I really like Prince Noms' proposal. Only thing I would suggest is we maybe change the eventual asset token name from "CKGAME" to just plain "CK"

[goin2mars.]

More on the idea - Should there be some stipulation in place that calls for x% of the ownership to remain in the game platform at all times, so as to prevent majority ownership from leaving the game platform itself?

Assets that are held by people who are not players will not get a dividend. This both rewards existing players, and serves as an incentive mechanism to get players to join the game and "deposit" their CKGAME by registering an address.

Or appoint a treasurer who receives the dividends on behalf of all token holders and uses them to buy-and-burn tokens (adding positive price support by both buying and reducing the outstanding supply). No need to distribute at all.

This would render CK/CKGAME equivalent to HODL which could then be dissolved.
