For anybody who is interested and cant see why via is better at doing what counterparty should do. check the block explorer for counterparty and notice the times between blocks. when you are p2p trading these block times need to be fast so orders match and assets exchange quickly. While your waiting for counterparty you could have missed a better price or worse price.

The main thing to remeber guys is via does what counterparty does vut a hell of alot fastsr and more efficiently. and one big reason to back this coin is counterparty rely on the btc devs making changes and they dont. btcdrak will make anychanges needed to make via a sucess. so basically forget counterparty via is here.
Viacoin+ClearingHouse does what Bitcoin+Counterparty does much faster, but less efficiently, with a higher orphan rate, greater risk of block chain forks and over all much lower security. Counterparty does not rely on the bitcoin devs to do anything. It's been running on bitcoin for eight months without a problem!
sorry i didnt realise you are a newb btc is still new to and shiny to you. unless you have a real bct account dont bother replying noone is listening

For those of you who like this project, how many bitcoins you think is worth investing in it?
That's not really a question any one can answer for anyone else. It is a very individual number based on the risk level you want to take on, your current portfolio amount, etc.
If you are "investing" in crypto rather than day trading (you use different percentage/risk calculations), I would not put all your eggs in one basket. Think in percentages not numbers. I personally currently keep about 50% in BTC (but have considered lowering that to maybe as low as 30%), and spread the rest out into several alts. Maybe you want to do between 5-15% in each alt. Say you decide on 10%. Take your total portfolio value and put 10% into Via.
The problem I have is that I don't understand most of the time which is a legit project and which is a crappy one or a scam. I'm not a programmer and so I have a problem understanding the technical aspects of the projects "coins". I mined bitcoins, litecoins and I mined coins that I was able to trade for those two. Most coins that I mined were ideas that are not technological. Karmacoin, dogecoin, olympic coin, potcoin and so on... coins that are supporting a community, but not a technological project.
This is another game all together. These guys are working on something I don't understand the specifics, but I only "think" I have a picture. Anyone can correct me if I'm wrong, via is a project that allows other projects to be built on top of it's blockchain? Meaning another coin can use via blockchain to trade on it's trading platform?
Exchanges can use this platform too? And other ideas can be also built on top as in markets, trading, payments and so on...

I bought yesterday more...
And today I would like to buy more. I'm trying to free up more BTC from "shit" coins that have no value to buy this one. I think once the market goes over this correction period, via will take off. Even BTC is down over 6% from yesterday's drop.

You keep posting this. I've read this from you few times already. I'm not technologically inclined and I'm trying to understand. I know that via has a team, people's names and I can see their profiles and read about them and see videos of them.
Ignore the troll, no need to engage them. Look through the posts and you can see they're just a professional bagholder. All they're trying to do is derail this coin's thread to be about their scam bag.
so the pump and dump also is coming to an end for VIA?
It's so sad to see that the hole altcoin scene to be controlled by these a few p&d insider groups. Development and technologies don't even matter in the altcoin scene. The only thing people want to see is fast profits. This is not an investment Market, this is pure manipulation and greed.

The problem is VIA don't have any development and technologies, it's pure copycat from other coins. ClearingHouse/clearwallet is pure copycat of Cloaktrade idea. Tree chains is copy cat of blockchain(coinjoin,darkwallet..). Another problem, no one would create application for Tree chains as they will creating their own scam coin or tree chains. VIA don't even have the anonymous hype.

this Via platform looks just like counterparty ?Viacoin Team Implements Smart Contract Protocol Built on Altcoin Block Chain
source: http://www.coindesk.com/viacoin-team-implements-smart-contract-protocol-built-altcoin-block-chain/
The first decentralized smart contracts protocol built on top of an altcoin block chain is now live.
ClearingHouse, a descendent of Counterparty, was created by the team behind viacoin and has been in active development since the alt first launched last month. The team has attracted top talent in the bitcoin space, most notably Bitcoin Core developer and Coinkite advisor Peter Todd who has been hired to work on his Tree Chains concept.
On 11th August, the viacoin development team announced new details regarding ClearingHouse’s internal currency, XCH, and information on how users can exchange viacoins for the new currency. Notably, a new Web-based client interface that implements the ClearingHouse protocol, Clearwallet, was also made public.
CoinDesk spoke with viacoin developer BTCDrak, who said that because the ClearingHouse protocol is built on top of the viacoin block chain, certain structural and political complications that have previously plagued decentralized contract platforms are largely sidestepped.
He explained:
“Because ClearingHouse and viacoin are part of the same project, the viacoin block chain will always accommodate ClearingHouse’s needs.”
He added that, in the past, the teams behind projects like Counterparty have faced pressure from bitcoin’s development community that ultimately impeded progress. Using viacoin as a basis, ClearingHouse-based projects can avoid these obstacles entirely.
First look at smart contract protocol
Clearwallet is the first implementation of ClearingHouse, giving users a decentralized environment for conducting various contracts. No keys are stored on the server and all transactions happen purely between the two parties.
As shown in the image above, the simple user interface currently offers an asset marketplace, a betting terminal and section for decentralized games. Clearwallet also offers a live chat box, with early adopters already investigating the implementation.
In its original announcement, the viacoin-ClearingHouse development team announced that the exchange rate between VIA and XCH would be 100 XCH per VIA. A 45-day sale period has already begun, with a diminishing exchange rate that will end at 85 XCH for each viacoin.
According to BTCDrak, exchange volume is up and nearly 230,000 viacoins have been converted to XCH, or roughly 143 BTC at press time. Users have already executed several trades in Clearwallet’s VIA/XCH marketplace.
Looking ahead, reputation and identity support will be implemented that add further layers of complexity to how the protocol can be leveraged. As the team noted in the blog post, this includes the creation of decentralized organizations, facilitation of online polls, the sale of goods and services and even the development of new cryptocurrencies.
Decentralized platforms grow in number
The ClearingHouse protocol represents the latest entry in a group of decentralized contract platforms, which also includes Counterparty and the off-block chain decentralized contract network BitHalo. Ripple Labs is also working on its own smart contracts platform, Codius.
Beyond contracts, decentralized platforms are attracting attention for their intrinsic security and appeal to a broad segment of the bitcoin community. It’s this level of grassroots support that has made such projects largely possible.
Among the projects taking shape in this space is BitcoinJ developer Mike Hearn’s decentralized crowdfunding platform Lighthouse. While no date has been given, the platform is expected to launch sometime in the next month.
Commerce has also proved to be a major area for decentralized development. Peer-to-peer marketplace OpenBazaar, created by Brian Hoffman and based on the Toronto Bitcoin Expo Hackathon winner DarkMarket, seeks to bring the principals behind decentralized actions to consumer-to-merchant interaction.

Only dumb people dont see the potential via has. via will do everything everybody wants btc to do without the long confirm times and without the oppression from btc devs. its a no brainer. 99% of the crypto peeps are here for profit not usibillity and its dam shame. satoshi gave us an idea for new world and greed has fcked it up again.
anyone having trouble with the rpcallowip command? I get the following

The prices at exchanges will be irrelevant pretty soon anyways. with p2p trading thats where the volume will be goin. look at nxt alot of nxt volume is thru the mgw now p2p and not on exchanges. its the future
No worries, this tiny dump it means nothing at all for the future of viacoin.
Via is builded with major fundamentals in it which will drive it into the top of the cryptos and I believe we will see that before the end of this year. A simple research on the existing market and on the existing features of the existing leading coins of crypto scene and a comparison with via will prove that.
After all the market right now is on holidays and the dump is taking place everywhere.
So follow the leader.
