Anyone wants to join me with marketing, then lets work out a plan together!
I would like to join the marketing effort.
1) First bounty: Goes to gambler or group of gamblers who can win a certain amount of CHA within a specified timeframe
sounds fun - any numbers in mind?
1st and 2nd place

I meant what is the amount of CHA, what is the timeframe and what is the prize?  Smiley

Excellent work, peled. I sent you a PM with Twitter credentials this morning.
And TwinWinNerD: can't wait for you to return with a bang!

Here's how we've prioritized things from the Dev side:

Working on now:
 - BTC betting
 - Even lower fees
 - Even faster bet resolution
 - Expecting rollout of some or all of these features within a week, plus or minus a few days.

Working on next:
 - Faucet on Chancecoin.com
 - More single player games

To be determined:
 - Web wallet. We can't directly host a Web wallet for legal reasons, but we might be able to finagle some kind of decentralized solution.

Magician

Sounds like a very solid plan  Cheesy
I agree to the way you prioritized the tasks.
- even faster bet resolution and lower fees - amazing!
- btc betting within a week - WOW! (If you need a CHA fund let me know, I can help)

decentralized webwallet sounds very interesting - intrigued to hear more once we reach the relevant time.

so when are they going to send my 1 btc back?
If they send it back, you should be grateful that they don't give you back 0.45BTC to reflect how much you'd have left if they'd let you buy  Grin

update:
I have PM fordlincoln and sent an e-mail using http://www.buyxap.com/#message-us.

of course also the Swarm Reserve should be destroyed in a proportional ratio.

Quote
The 8% figure is only applicable if they raise 21500 Bitcoins realistically it's going to be a much higher %age depending on how much they raise.
Actually it's the opposite. If we don't hit our targets our percentages will be less.

Attempts to send funds to the API "Address" on or after 11 AM (central time) July 18th 2014 (as determined by bitcoin block chain records), will not be considered APICoins purchases and shall be sent back to the originating Bitcoin wallets in the form of Bitcoin minus transaction fees.

Thank you for your replay - My mistake.

one suggestion :
I think it is needless to display the probability of a win in the Poker game.
It will reduce the fun of the game by showing the probability number .
How do you think?
I Agree.
Displaying the probability of win makes the poker game same as the dice game.

p.s: @Devs bets get confirmed and resolved very fast. Gambling is finally a lot of fun!
Is it possible to make another bet before the first bet gets resolved?

are you thinking about doing a webwallet like counterwallet so people wont have to download and sync the blockchain? - I think this would help adoption of chancecoin very much.

How long will it take to make bitcoin gambling implemented ?

@TwinWinNerD I sent 1000 CHA to the donation address as a big thanks to the devs for their hard work and commitment to the success of chancecoin - I trust you will use them wisely  Smiley

Version 2.4 is now live! Your client should automatically update. It will re-download the database, which should take about three minutes, and you'll see "Chancecoin is parsing transactions" while it is happening. Give it a try and let us know what you think.

New features:
  • Instant betting (we're talking about <10 seconds) -- try it!
  • Transaction chaining
  • Better card images
  • Improved client speed (~4X faster on average)

Magician

Thank you for your hard work!

We're working on a solution that still uses the Bitcoin blockchain, but has instant or near-instant bets.
Awesome!
any time estimate for this?

We've had some discussions regarding using another blockchains such as DOGE or NXT to speed up the betting process. This solution is actually much more cumbersome than it looks from a user experience standpoint. Many new users have to do the following:

1. Transfer BTC to an exchange, let's say poloniex
1. Buy DOGE/BTC on Poloniex
2. Transfer DOGE to the chancecoin app
3. Make bets using DOGE
4. Transfer DOGE back to Poloniex
5. Sell DOGE/BTC on Poloniex

@Devs - Is it possible to use Doge blockchain speed to confirm bets and still make bets using CHA?

-Primedice total bets is around 713,000,000 right now.
- Doge TX fee is 0.01 doge per transaction.
- If I will pay the doge fees (I can send the devs 7,130,000 doge) in-order that users wont need to buy doge in the exchange would that help?

- Move to a faster blockchain.
 - Make our own faster blockchain.
 - Invent some new solution that lets gamblers resolve bets rapidly offline, like some kind of electronic choose your own adventure scratch card.
any of these options is better the current situation.
Make our own faster blockchain / Invent some new solution - sounds very interesting.

What about making a web-wallet like counterwallet? is that in your plans?

It still doesn't take away from the point that I am trying to make:

Incorporating BTC will bring about the reduction in demand for CHA which will directly affect price and growth. Concentrate on each of use and enhance the games, increase the odds of wining (like you did), provide awesome prizes to winners ...i offered 300 CHA somewhere...a donation for this can be setup.

Your point is important and I am sure the Devs will take it into account seriously.

I think it's hard to predict the outcome of such a move because it might bring new players to gamble with chancecoin wallet and exposure which is much needed at this point.
I am sure that afterwards we can find ways to incentivize the use of chancecoin over btc. (like reduce house edge for chancecoin and the ability to be the "gambler" and the "house" and probably more innovative ideas).

In my opinion I agree that the user experience (speed of bets etc) and flow (the process a new user has to go from the moment he hears about chancecoin until he start gambling) still needs a lot of work to get to were PrimeDice is, and because the Devs time is limited I think this should be given higher priority.

p.s: Ola its nice to see you here, I have a lot of respect to you and hope you will continue to be more active member in chancecoin community.

I think its important to only use CHA as the only base currency...concentrate on making a fast, easily accesible interface and users will naturally acquire CHA to participate...diluting the demand for CHA by incorporating BTC is a mistake you are about to repeat already made by the Counterparty devs.  Look at their awesome innovation yet compare their market capitalization to Mastercoin's
This is actually a bad example because right now if you look at coinmarketcap Counterparty has bigger ROI than Mastercoin.

[You need to remember that mastercoin crowd sell was in July-Aug sending a total of about 5000 bitcoins worth about US$500,000 at the time. Counterparty burning bitcoins was in Jan-Feb 2014 and about 2,130 bitcoin worth about US$2,000,000 were burned.
Meaning that mastercoin started with more than X2 marketcap than counterparty.]
