 A complete simplification and improvement to the CCash project. A webserver hosting a bank system for Minecraft, able to be used from web browser or from CC/OC if you're playing modded.
 
+### Description
+  
+the currency model most Minecraft Servers adopt if any, is resource based, usually diamonds, this model is fraught with issues however:
+
+* the primary issue is minecraft worlds are infinite leading to hyper inflation as everyone accrues more diamonds
+* there is no central authority minting the currency, any consumer can introduce more diamonds to the system
+* some resources are passively reapable, making the generation of currency a larger focus then of products
+* locality is required for transaction
+* theft is possible, ownership is possession based
+
+CCash solves these issues and adds a level of abstraction, the main idealogical guideline of CCash is to have fast core operations that other services that build on top of this abstraction
+
