I'm trying to access my counterwallet.


failoverAPI: Call failed (failed over across all servers). Method: get_asset_names; Last error: JSON-RPC Error:
Type: Server error

Code: -32000

Message: Could not contact counterpartyd!

Any advice?

Addit:
I'll try again later, probably syncing the blockchain or something

Is there some way we can setup some sort of distributed voting system to assess the demand for particular features?

Multisig support is mostly implemented now, but will require an in-depth security audit (which will be done by Peter Todd, most likely) before we push the code even into the develop branch, as it touches some pretty sensitive areas (e.g. validity checking of transaction inputs).

Regarding the messaging functionality, that's something we'd need to talk about internally. Generally, we are overall rather flexible with adding features if there is enough community support behind them. However, our scope for Counterparty is to be a financial platform. Messaging may be able to play a role in that, possibly, but we need to discuss it some more, and see a high amount of community demand for the feature...

Whom are you suggesting should leave the fee when a user gets a new asset? Or are you suggesting that a user should need to have twice the BTC dust  at his address in order to create an asset, so that he'll also be able to send it in another transaction?

what is LTBCOIN?

Will the protocol have a built in random number generator? It would also be possible to play rock paper scissors against the protocol itself...

Suggestion: leave enough BTC to cover at least 1 set of fees when a user gets a new asset.  It's a pretty poor experience to get an asset and find out that it can't really be transferred immediately.  Fees for 1 transfer will improve usability, and after it is used, a message could be displayed that further transfers will require depositing more BTC.

There's all ready an open chat, but it would be useful to send a private message too. One approach, of course, would be to implement a message system internally in counterwallet. Another way would be to specify recipient(s) of a Counterparty broadcast (this is not possible now, or is it?).

E.g. in the list of broadcasts I found this; "SEBUH Will be shipping out all miners in first batc". This broadcast could be sent to all holders of SEBUH, so when these open counterwallet next time they would see it. Because the blockchain is public, everyone else could see it too though, so privacy will still be zero unless a message can be encrypted somehow.

Possibility: May Counterparty Broadcast become the Bitcoin equivialent of Twitter?

Let's donate BTC to Counterparty / Counterwallet development (the button on counterwallet), and claim a powerful vps for crypto projects a year : http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/29x3gl/i_want_to_help_bitcoin_projects_so_im_giving_away/

Hi Xnova,  one question and one suggestion.

question: When Multi-sig function will be finished?

suggestion: Is it possible to add message function on counterwallet?  i think it is and useful and needful function. After the buyer sending a message to the online shop owner , the owner can distinguish the money for which order. 

Nice one, can we make bet where try know when btc-e adopt XCP? Until 31.12.2014 or until 30.6.2015. If odds growing too good maybe btc-e will bet that to home

XCP trading added to two new exchanges

XCP is now traded on Melotic, as well as 51btc.com!

For the full list of exchanges, we've set up a new Buy XCP page on our site.

Great news and great work!

1. Counterwallet will soon support Rock Paper Scissors (as a proof of concept for totally trustless, totally decentralized betting, e.g. with no oracle feed and no counterparty risk). This is fully implemented, and undergoing testing
2. We have added zero-confirmation support to Counterwallet and it's undergoing testing. This means that when you send or receive funds, they will reflect in your address balance immediately (as a number in parenthesis, even though the funds will still take the 1 block to clear). This will help out wallet usability dramatically.
3. Ouziel is currently working on an upgraded buy/sell interface, similar to BTER. This should be ready for release in the next week or two
4. We will be adding internationalization support after this, with the first language translation being Chinese, followed by Russian, German, French etc etc etc (whoever wants to provide a translation and maintain it). We have several folks in China that will help with the marketing over there
5. after internationalization, we have UI improvements, to show the icon for assets on the balance page and make the interface more slick, as well as taking Counterwallet out to be a Chrome app
6. Future possible features (pending us getting enough community interest for them) include proof-of-stake voting, potentially various other financial tools similar to options/swaps/futures, enhancements to crowdfunding (such as what Adam Levine proposed earlier on this thread, although that will require XCP or some other counterparty asset to be used in the crowdfunding, so we can escrow the funds)

what crazy features are you talking about

Well depending on community support, Counterparty could be enhanced to be more suitable for decentralized autonomous organizations. Features such as proof-of-stake voting for example (which the devs suggested earlier in the thread.)

I also had an idea of escrowing funds, and then the asset holders have to vote on which one of them receives them.

Something else that seemed interesting to me was this: https://github.com/NotaryChains/NotaryChainDocs/blob/master/whitepaper.md (but I'm not sure about the theory behind either..)

So if you have possible ideas for what proof-of-stake voting could be used for, or other features with realistic usecases, then please let us know! You have the chance to shape the future of cryptocurrencies here.

Feel free to send us an e-mail ([email protected]) describing the problem in detail. We'd be glad to help you get counterpartyd up and running.

Both mastercoin and counterparty lack easy to use and start wallet software. Mastercoins wallet, masterchest I have been trying to setup for months and been talking to support which are little to no help.

Counterparty I tried the latest build many times but cant get it working.

Care to elaborate?
