Hello!
I have been finding my self re-searching 2.0 protocols lately.
My first memory of Counterparty was when the "burn" was taking place. I thought it was a crazy idea at the time. It's nice to see the project is moving forward a year+ later.
So, as I keep reading through the previous forum posts and researching cases XCP being utilized, I do have one question.
Should I keep XCP on counterwallet mid to long term? What recourse or precautions can I take if the site goes MIA?

As long as you have your 12 word mnemonic phrase you always have access to your coins, even if the site goes MIA :-)
You can always retrieve your keys using https://blockscan.com/tool_generatekey and or the just released chrome XCP wallet

For larger amounts the best way is to do Armory cold storage with transaction signing in Counterwallet, I think.

voted. I only have dust on counterwallet. Would be nice if I could vote with my cold stash, but my bitcoind/counterpartyd are out of sync for months. Anyone tried the chrome counterwallet extension ? does it work great ? can it broadcast feed ?
Loon is working on a javascript tool for asset transfers / broadcasts. Maybe this is what you need?
See Github - https://github.com/loon3/xcp-tools-js.

Why can't counterparty asset name begins with the letter "A"? 
"A" is the prefix for numeric assets. This is a special class of assets with no issuance fee. The asset name begins with A followed by a very large integer between 26^12 + 1 and 256^8.
View this list of assets - http://xcp.pw/allassets.html - to get a sense of the both numeric and alphabetic assets.

The Counterparty Foundation is announcing the start of the two-week long voting period for the election of three community directors. Since voting is starting three days later than announced, we will extend the voting period till block 352718 (in about 2 weeks).
There has been a change in the voting procedure. Few months back we’ve disabled sending dividend payments based on XCP balances to avoid spam. However, since Counterparty is a decentralized system, this means we have disabled this feature for ourselves as well. Therefore, we won’t be able to implement the announced voting procedure based on dividend payment. Instead, voting will be based on broadcasting votes.

I just had to re-post this (originally saw this tweeted through counterparty) but my gosh I'm reading this now and it's got to be the BEST and most COHERENT article giving an argument for Bitcoin (both the blockchain and the currency) against those who think that the blockchain and currency can or should be separated. Specifically the argument clarifies why Bitcoin's best feature is the fact that it's an alternative currency and whoever thinks it's best features are the alternative use cases of blockchain as just some kind of glorified ledger or database needs to get their facts right lmao!
Whoever wrote this is genius!
