EXPLORING BITCOIN CROWN PLATFORM

THE PROBLEM FACED IN THE INDUSTRY

Payment Fraud

It is estimated that for every legitimate virtual purchase made, there are 75% virtual items lost to fraud, Assets stored and managed online can be open to manipulation or chargebacks. Merchants have to deal with extra burdens, and scammers damage the game’s reputation.

High Fees and Slow Transactions

Game publishers and communities rely on third-party platforms to process virtual goods transactions. Gamers encounter slowness, opaque fund flow, and high transaction fees.

Lack of True Ownership & Rarity

Virtual items are, in-essence, licensed to the gamer and are often only available for use on their proprietary platforms. At times they can be manipulated, lost, or taken back with little recourse for the user. Genuine transparency is missing.

Locked in and Centralized

Digital items and currencies are usually locked to a single game and not transferable. Trading items outside of the game environment is cumbersome and difficult. If a player gets banned, they can lose all of their items and currency.

No open standards

There are currently no widely-accepted standards for decentralized currencies and assets in games. The user experience is often an afterthought, so users don’t know what to expect.

Expensive & time-consuming

Developing a platform for managing virtual goods is time-consuming and costly. The complexity of managing a virtual economy on proprietary infrastructure delays time to market. Security concerns introduce a further set of difficulties.

Lack of value gamification

Value based gamification features are lacking in content management systems and forum software. Users do not get rewarded in real world value for participation or contribution.

SOLUTIONS THAT BITCOIN CROWN PROFERS

BTCC will develop tools that enable game publishers, game servers, and communities to manage virtual goods and in-game items across multiple platforms. Monetization using BTCC Coin will be a key focus with robust features and toolsets provided. Great benefits will be gained by utilizing a decentralized platform and the supporting frameworks.

Custom Coins as game items

The same mechanism for minting Custom Coins may be used to represent unique game items. In this scenario, BTCC coins would be used to mint one or more Custom Coins representing a game item that has value tied to it.

FEATURES OF BITCOIN CROWN PLATFORM

Today’s gamers and website users demand fast and snappy user interfaces.

The Ethereum network is currently limited in throughput because it has an average block time of 17 seconds (potentially up to 30 seconds).

Future updates to Ethereum aim to improve block times to 3 seconds18 (Casper) and allow transfers within milliseconds19 (Raiden).

Both of these updates are planned for late 2017 to early 2018. As the standard block times may impose some delays, we will achieve a modern responsive experience by using off-chain notifications.

Trusted Platforms will send an instant notification to the user’s Smart Wallet for each Transaction Request. When the transaction is accepted by the user and created on the blockchain, the wallet will call the Trusted Platform API with the transaction to watch. The game or website can then be updated immediately with a placeholder item or non-tradeable version of the asset until enough confirmations are reached to allow full ownership of the item. In the case of in-game currencies, the user’s balance would immediately update in the game but any unconfirmed portions would be locked from spending until the appropriate numbers of confirmations are reached on the blockchain.

The BTCC Coin SDK will display confirmed and unconfirmed balances when listing BTCC and custom assets, to make implementation easy and clear. After Raiden and Casper updates are deployed on the Ethereum Network, these safeguard measures will eventually become imperceptible.

BTCC will be testing the Raiden Network for lightning-fast asset confirmation speeds as soon as the Developer and minimum viable product (MVP) releases are completed, later this year.

BTCC “Smart” Wallet

A key component in making everything easy to use is the BTCC Wallet. Building on existing light wallet design, the BTCC Wallet streamlines the user experience further by integrating with games and websites that the user trusts. User accounts on each trusted platform will be synced to the user’s Ethereum address.

We call this a “smart” wallet because of multiple pieces of functionality that work together to simplify the user experience:

The Platform API is used to correlate verified gaming and website accounts.

Transaction Requests are sent from trusted platforms directly to the wallet.

Subscriptions are confirmed and managed by each local wallet.

Transaction limits and thresholds enforced by the wallet’s smart contract.

Smart Contracts are used in the background for data & displayed in a clean UI.

Local rules can be set up for accepting and automating Transaction Requests.
