0.2 Edgeless key features:

  • EDG deposits/withdrawals are activated
  • State channels are activated to improve blockchain confirmation speed allowing users to have fast and transparent RNG generation
  • Password reset function is activated using a security question

Limits

Min deposit: 50 EDG

Max deposit: 150 EDG

Min bet per hand: 0.2

Max bet per hand: 5 EDG

Deposits/withdrawals gas and speed

Most deposits/withdrawals are credited within 5–20 minutes. However, Edgeless infrastructure is built on Ethereum blockchain — transaction speed depends on a current state of the blockchain. Ethereum overload might cause delays. Gas price is effected by these factors too. You can see more information on a current state of ethereum blockchain: https://ethgasstation.info/

Please don’t freak out if your token transaction is not displayed instantly.

Game gas and speed

We have successfully programmed state channel technology (explanation what is a state channel and how it solves scalability problems: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mA1PD9EF3TA) into our casino code. That means blockchain charges gas ONLY ONCE PER SESSION.

Let’s say a player logins and plays 130 hands. That means a game cost is current gas price divided by 130. That’s incredibly cheap in comparison to any other blockchain service available now.

Additionally, our game RNG generates a new game in less than a millisecond allowing us to compete with traditional centralized casinos.

Transparency:

Edgeless RNG uploads seeds and game information to ethereum blockchain. Users can verify this information using ethereum blockchain explorer: etherscan.io

Etherescan API is directly linked to Edgeless smart-contracts.

If etherscan generates a string:

{“jsonrpc”:”2.0",”id”:1,”result”:”0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001"}

That means Edgeless seeds and game outcome matches to e thinformation uploaded on the blockchain. Which leads to a transparent game and trust between player and a game.

If etherscan generates a string:

{“jsonrpc”:”2.0",”id”:1,”result”:”0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000”}

That means there is an information mismatch and suspicious activity is detected.

Additional comments:

This version allows us to start user acquisition. Due to complex crypto UX, most of them are going to be early adopters. It will help us to test/improve platform based on feedback and guide produce to the right direction.

UX is now our top priority which will improve significantly with every new update.

Which leads to…one more thing :)

Sneak Peak:

More information will be announced on 24th of January.

Stay Tuned!
