One good thing that will come out of this that BTC cartel will realize that XCP is actually enhancing its usability. We will have less of Lucas Jr. types trying to police the transactions.
Actually Eligius (Luke Jr pool) is the first to process OP_RETURN 80 bytes transactions.
Wow, didn't know that. I remember him coming over in this thread several months back and being very aggressive and threatening. That was when I realized the problems of BTC centralization by the cartel.

Can anyone explain me where i find the XCP wallet? I bought some XCP on BTER and want to put it cold storage.
I only see github links but i cant compile.

If you want to put it into cold storage, you can put it on any BTC address where you own the private key. If you want to retrieve your funds from cold storage, you can then import the private key into http://counterwallet.io.
Or you can create an armory offline address:

Ok. so if i understand correctly, i can use BTC adresses to send my counterparty to?
Ok so if i make a wallet with Multibit, and safe that keys (wallet.dat & password) i am good to go?

Any ideas on some of the topics being covered in this thread? - https://forums.counterparty.io/discussion/418/the-crossparty-protocol#latest.
Specifically the "Complementary-Chain" topic.
Specifically the "Complementary-Chain" topic.
My initial thought on running Counterparty on two chains is that it will take resources. Resources that will no longer be going to the speediest possible development of Counterparty on Bitcoin. It's a good idea. However, I think we're a bit early to start seriously considering trying to run Counterparty on two blockchains unless there is a person or team that wants to take responsibility for the project.
Regarding your comments wondering about the migration capabilities and strategy. If I recall correctly, Adam said it would only take a day or so to migrate Counterparty to another blockchain, although I don't think he has any intention of doing so as the advantage of being on Bitcoin is so great.

Ok great, i just bought some XCP. How long does it take to send them to the counterwallet? waiting for 30 mins now. 
It depends on where you bought them. The easiest way to check transaction status is by entering the addresses associated with the transaction in the search box, here: http://blockscan.com/
Mtbitcoin has also just introduced seeing zero confirmation transactions at http://blockscan.com/pending. Viewing an address will show unconfirmed tranactions as dimmed.

ok so this is a web wllet.
is that decentralized peer 2 peer or is this hosted? sorry for my mistakes but im not so good in tech
It's not hosted; the private keys are generated client-side.
we need a simple to install desktop version. c annot beleive it's centralised on a website!
Your password never goes to the site. it stays on your machine and the wallet is opened through some hash trickery or something. Nobody ever has access to your private key, except you.

If you just want to cold store your XCP, a bitcoin address is enough. The only thing you need to do is keep the bitcoin address private key safe.
