Just checked out http://pay.blockscan.com/

Amazing work, mtbitcoin! Even in tech preview stage it's looking extremely polished.

It seems something like this makes it possible for any entity who decides to act as their own voucher issuer on the CounterParty network, (offering discounts/coupons or memberships) a very low barrier to entry to accepting those vouchers on their sites. They can also be trustlessly traded amongst users via the decentralised exchange without risk of hacks/forgery. Just a coupon marketplace alone could be a big thing, Gyft was fairly recently acquired for just shy of $100 million

If only an exchange would step up to vend fiat -> fiat represented CounterParty asset in a guarantor role, then you could store (and trade) USD, EUR, GBP, CNY etc on the CounterParty network, similar to ripple gateways, navigate to a site and pay out in the fiat currency with the payment invoice, all whilst retaining ownership of your own private keys and without being exposed to the volatility of BTC. Seems like the technology is in place but the regulatory work is the real headache.. massive potential with this technology though  Smiley

he who has the gold makes the rules
anyone have any issues with counterwallet.io?

i have a wallet i created in August for the SJCX crowd sales and now I am not able to access it - neither using the 12 word or the secure URL option.

luckily i have saved the privkey to that address to my bitcoind... but this is somewhat concerning.

I am able to create a new account and use those 12 words to log in.

Anyone who created a wallet prior to early August 2014 please check and report back.

Mine works fine.

apparently some services were restarted on counterwallet and thus i was not able to access it

looks like all is working out okay now

why Counterparty is being blamed for spam ? its not advertising bad content.
its paying fees.. this is what bitcoin is about
if widely used - miners get a lot of fees

Does anyone know how much XCP is still left at the burn addresses? Is all of this trading just the same people buying and selling constantly? It's incredibly frustrating to see people with no patience or longer-term horizon completely decimate the price because liquidity is so low. Obviously if you are taking a long term view the price doesn’t matter much but it’s still not very fun watching the price tank like this.



Large amount of XCP is still around in burn address, but I don't think many are in a rush to cash that to low liquidity exchange and market sell -10%, -20% of their holdings despite absolutely nothing fundamentally changing as to when the price was that much higher.

You can see clearly a user here send XCP corresponding with the dumps;

Thanks. I just don't get the market action on XCP sometimes. I understand that sometimes you might need to cash out for an extraordinary reason or whatever, but for me the risk/reward of holding XCP is a no brainer. IMO these dumpers risk looking like the BTC pizza guy.

Well what I can suggest is accumulation and patience ...wait until MEDICI start announcement.

luke-jr is going mad again - I am not even entirely sure if this is a real problem given xcps implementation

http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2pfgjg/exposed_lukejr_plans_on_forcing_blacklists_on_all/

It is absolutely not a problem. Counterparty simply cannot be blocked by such methods. (It's just posturing.)

For example, here's a recent block mined by Eligius, and a Counterparty transaction included in it:

https://blockchain.info/block-index/511946/000000000000000001eebb1a395096d23e74d6516d061adc1968ea5269b43665

Did it start on poloniex after that rally crashed https://poloniex.com/exchange/btc_xcp
and then pulled down bter, too? https://bter.com/trade/xcp_btc  or the other way around?


I am bad/lazy with timezones :-)  Alright, I try:
Now it is 20:00 on bter and 12:00 on poloniex, that's 8 hours diff.

The first drop happened on bter only at 15:45.
That is poloniex-time 7:45 - right?


The mini-rally (up to 1,342,598 Satoshi !) on poloniex started at 3:30, and ended at 6:30.

So correct me if I am wrong, but that (artificial?) upwards rally on poloniex is what caused the crash to below 1 mio Satoshi.

Naive question perhaps ...
... but why is XCP's price collapsing so terribly?
thx

Because BTC is going down? I am sure XCP will go up when BTC rally comes. Wink

What is up with the slow confirmation times?

I have a pending transaction for 40 mins now still unconfirmed...sending from counterwallet.
Confirmation time is pretty much time to find the next block in Bitcoin. While Bitcoin targets 10 minutes it can easily be an hour or more depending on how often you do transactions.
