In the end what card reader/writer did you buy? I have not found any affordable javacards yet. The 1K or 4K Mifare cards will not suffice i think, .... you can only store data on it but not any programmable logic. If we want to sign transactions on the card so it does not have to release its public keys we need to be able to add some logic to it or the needed functions need to be available on the chip already. Have you looked at http://www.zeitcontrol.de/en ?

Subsidy is reduced by 80%, so my guess is that price will stay the same, and difficulty will reduce by 80%. Might take a while for miners to switch.

what will happen to the current mining difficulty (excluding the block reward) once the change happens?

Happy Bday guys, i have my csc on my wallet, dont sell!

last chance to accumulate I guess before the subsidy cut, I guess. I'm not complaining.

I'm seeing some large blocks on the sell side which weren't there before.  That's odd, someone is dumping but why?  And where's our whale who was buying much higher?

3k blocks to go until the subsidy cut. Interesting how the price has been beat up this week on cryptsy. Wonder what people are thinking there.

yaye my java card reader/writer showed up today

Looks like less than 3 days until the subsidy cut. Missiles are in the air...

Excellent! Thank you for supporting the coin.

Great !!! Finally a great dice site for the only coin that really deserves it! Which coin better to use to play dice than Casinocoin!! Lets help promote this site where we can!

I can get the 4k cards from china for <$1 each. Java card 3.0.1 80k contactless cards are 20 euro and have export restrictions. $50 will get you a reader/writer and a few 4k cards easily.

AJ- you can get the JCOP dev platform 3.0.4 here and it comes with a simulator if you'd like to give it a spin. the github package to try is btcipjc. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/embedded/javacard/downloads/javacard-sdk-2043229.html

Ouch, that sucks!  Hope it doesn't cost you too much time man!!

is the poker thing down atm?

Done some research and JCOP cards are pretty expensive, cheapest i found still costs arround $6, have you found anything better? I agree with you that it will be more secure to do the signing on the card/chip instead of only holding the private key and doing the signing on a POS, that way a card does not need to have an interface to give up its private key, thus it can not be stolen unless the card itself is stolen. I think adding some kind of extra PIN authentication to the solution would also be beneficial, just like normal bankcards, only card and PIN combination will allow transactions. Anybody know of cheap JCOP cards?

The way merged-mining works is that once enabled (requires code change/fork), it can merged-mined with any other scrypt coin as a primary coin - it's up to the miner, or the pool, to choose which one.  So one miner could mine Doge/CasinoCoin, andother could mine Litecoin/CasinoCoin.  Merged mining is good for getting high block-chain security for a low subsidy.

I'm not 100% sure but I think to do so would likely require matching the initial bits of the keys from casinocoin to litecoin so that the resulting keys from mining are compatible. Then it just a matter of submitting to both chains when a block found on CSC also hashes out to a diff large enough for litecoin. We should chat about this more, but it's no small feat I believe.

Merged mining is a great idea also for added security which will help with adoption.

How feasible is it to merge mine CasinoCoin with maybe LTC or Doge?  I think one of this two would be ideal but I'm not sure what kind of work is required to add a merge mine patch.
