CasinoCoin: XRPL Year One

Plotting a path to the moon and beyond — a retrospective of the last year in the life of CasinoCoin.

It’s not easy going where no one has gone before.

The flight path is unwritten.

There will be unexpected gravitational pull, black holes to navigate and maybe the occasional UFO. On our mission to deliver the de facto token for regulated gaming, the CasinoCoin crew have narrowly avoided some asteroids and space debris this past year whilst continuing to chart a new solar system.

If you can excuse the puns throughout, a year on from some major changes join us for a reflection on how far we’ve come on this journey to the moon.

Moving CasinoCoin to new homes virtually and physically.

Moving onto the XRPL and partnering with XRPL Labs was perhaps the most important change for securing CasinoCoin’s future but moving our physical home to the Isle of Man secured a stable and supportive base in every sense, with masses of opportunity to build on.

Building a stellar crew.

Daniel, Matt, Andre, Jack and Marek were joined by a new crew of advisors with diverse experience across gaming and technology in May.

This was further bolstered with the addition of Mass Adoption to support business development. In November Mark Robson took the controls as CEO with Lisa Karran joining as COO and their appointments attracted a lot of gaming industry interest, standing us in good stead for discussions with operators and bringing in-depth understanding of gaming operations.

New recruits to the CSC Nation

Evan ‘Gripsed’ Jarvis, Poker Ambassador came onboard as Poker Ambassador and Sponsorship deals with TT riders John McGuinness, Peter Hickman and Dean Harrison were secured ahead of TT2022 which, having been cancelled for two years, is set to be huge. As a helmet sponsor CasinoCoin will be seen in footage globally. This will be supported by on-the-ground activity at the event.

New resources launched.

Marketing Blasts off!

With regular blogs posted to Medium we were proud to become a ‘Top Writer on Gaming’ and we continue to create new content regularly for our community here.

Revisit and reminisce on some of our top articles. Who could possibly forget JC Collins’ piece ‘Dimensions’ and PonderJaunt’s piece on the Metaverse for example?

We’ve had a lot of interest and support from influencers and media throughout the year some of which include, Zerpenator’s short doc on CasinoCoin

Digital Perspectives interview with Mark Robson and Mark’s views on blockchain covered in this Q&A by casinobeats. Our partnership with ArtFX has attracted interest from SBC Leaders and most recently, Crypto Eri.

Continuing long term commitment and investment in the XRPL ecosystem.

Eminence is not only running a dUNL validator node but has gone onto invest in running a Full History Node at our base in the Isle of Man.

Exchanges

Listings remain one of the most important goals for CasinoCoin and we continue to talk to a number of exchanges about growing this list.

Utility Delivered

One of the greatest achievements this year of course was the delivery of genuine utility for CasinoCoin. RocknRolla successfully launched in the CasinoCoin Lobby at the end of 2021 and was quickly followed by the announcement of the Chimoney partnership.

An integration with CoinsPaid gave gaming operators an easy access point to accept CasinoCoin without any further API.

Out of this world partnerships

The CasinoCoin team are fortunate and grateful to be working with entrepreneurial partners such as XUMM, D’CENT, Flare Finance, the team at ArtFX on delivery of the metaverse casino, Rok N Rolla Systems on expansion of the gaming offer and Chimoney on further utility.

On reflection, it’s clear to see that whilst the world was still in Covid slo-mo the CasinoCoin team were in overdrive steering a path to our destination. With a lot of space still to travel, mission control remains focused and confident that we are in the orbit of delivering the token of choice for the regulated gaming industry.

A big thank you to everyone who supports us both officially and unofficially! Including our Mods Matt_Mxttsco, Codeward, Flying Fox, Wurstkloppi & FizzeFatze, our Merch partners XRPL Merch and Boone and all of the #CSCNation!

With even more articles, blogs, vlogs, and videos being released in the coming months, we’re excited to share our insight, experience and announcements as we continue on our mission for our community of fellow intrepid explorers. To the moon! (Excuse the terrible puns throughout this article :-))
