Key programming challenges we solved/working on:

RNG speed is one of the main problems for all ETH casinos. We have managed to optimise our randomness generation to such a level that a regular player won’t even see a different of a blockchain decentralised RNG and centralised RNG when it comes to the speed of randomness generation.

Smart contract gas price — due to a heavily increased ETH price, gas costs went significantly high. One of the possible ways to get rid of this problem is to wait for an Ethereum Metropolis update; however, we don’t want to be dependent on that since the date for the update is unknown.

Instead, we are working on our own solution and smart contract optimisation.

Expected full platform launch on the mainnet.

As we outlined on a white paper, the full platform will be launched in a Q3. It will have Black Jack, Dice, and Lounge Lottery, a new design, a casino license and proper gambling limits.

At the moment, we cannot announce a concrete date because it depends how fast we will manage to get the casino license, and licensing in a casino industry is a relatively long process.

Are you 100% confident that you will get one?

Yes, almost every bitcoin casino has one. Also, we are working with lawyers who already managed to acquire countless casino licenses.

Why is casino license is such a big deal? There are other ETH casinos launching without a license.

One of our key target markets is fiat gamblers. In order to target this market, a casino license is a must. Secondly, it provides an access to the fiat gambling industry infrastructure and services. Another important aspect is strategic partnerships (this will soon be updated). Without a proper legal basis, it is way much harder to make some serious co-operations.
