Title: JDS(Just Dice Shares) testnet
Post by: zhangweis on May 14, 2016, 02:16:09 pm
JDS is a decentralized dice blockchain. The purpose is to dice with generated random number fairly and quickly. All JDS holders will be the house. Players also need JDS to play dices.

Currently JDS is in very early stage and has a testnet running with development of several days. Only the dice transaction and jackpot part is finished and RNG part is not started.
To join the testnet, you can:
- Directly open http://120.27.4.72:7000/ on browser with secret "record truth cost animal congress harsh obtain surround puppy rain town exit". Click dices menu item to play dices.
- Setup a node by cloning https://github.com/zhangweis/jds.git and follow the instructions.

Initial token distribution is not planned yet.


JDS forks LISK which uses DPOS and Nodejs.
 - Consensus algorithm: DPOS
 - Block interval: 5 sec.
 - House edge: 1%
 - Max dice amount: 1% of all JDS
 - Dilution to pay dice payout if player wins
 - Burn dice amount if house wins

Rough plan:
 RNG (1-2 months)
 UI Optimization (1 week)

It seems promising!  I just tried, I think it will be much better if the block time is reduced to 3 second.

No, I'm not associated with just-dice.com but it's largely inspired by it.

Not yet. I'm working on the RNG part which may contribute to most content of a white paper but I'm not sure whether I can write it in English as I'm not a native speaker.

If this program can be added to Bitshares ,it will be a fee backed asset.
Then ,we can use any UIA to play dice.

Unfortunately, it's based on Lisk not BTS and not possible to read BTS blockchain info.
