I like what I have read about counterparty and my sixth sense is that it is more legit than competitors. However, I am not technical minded at all.

Could someone please explain the difference between counterparty and some of the other cryptos purporting to do the same thing, like mastercoin, namecoin, ethereum etc?

thank you

Functionality-wise, Counterparty has the most features live and available right now. It is also important to note that Counterparty can trade directly against BTC on the Counterparty decentralized exchange - something others cannot do.

The major difference and in my mind though is that Counterparty is developed under the same principles as Satoshi. The platform was developed for the people to use and *never* was there and will there be some IPO that favours and enrichens the developers. The developers of the platform had to buy in exactly the same way in which everyone else during the proof of burn period.

All other platforms either:

* Have an extremely small number of large holders, or
* Have a 'social contract' to 'richly reward early adopters, or
* Have raised funds in a commercial fashion,

Counterparty is built by the people for the people.

Please allow xcp in swarm IPO

I think this is a good suggestion. You are using the counterparty infrastructure, why wouldn't you allow the token to be used as well?

I think it's a great suggestion as well. In fact we already set up an XCP -> SWARM vending machine just as we currently have a BTC -> SWARM vending machine.

Problem is we didn't want to turn it on without testing it thoroughly and I haven't had the time.

We also want to integrate it into the feed on www.swarmcorp.com so that you can see both incoming BTC and XCP.

Hopefully I will have time this weekend to make sure everything is working fine and then we will start accepting XCP as well.

Please don't do anything silly like create a fixed exchange rate between BTC and XCP. Look to the Maidsafecoin debacle to see where that gets you.

IMO, it's really better to just do one or the other. It would have been better to go with XCP in the first place, but now that BTC is already announced, better to stick with it.

I do agree with the fixed rate point, was thinking about this as well. As you mention it was a disaster for both maidsafe and mastercoin.

Couldn't you take the coinmarketcap price at the time the XCP is sent? Or is this too difficult to implement?

The peg with Mastercoin in the Maidsafe crowdfund wasn't the problem, in itself. It was, rather, the fact that Mastercoin was pegged to a value well above its market price.

A company raising an early round of financing probably wants the most liquid currency available so that they can start spending the money. What if swarm took in a high percentage of XCP and then wanted to liquidate 25,000 or so XCP in order to pay for various business expenses?

Fair point and I understand why they would prefer a more liquid token but consider this situation. I have most of my crypto assets in XCP. I want to buy into swarm so I am doing the same thing, moving XCP to the DEX or other exchanges, selling it for BTC and then using that to subscribe for swarm.

I may have missed it in the posts but does swarm benefit XCP other than bringing it some attention via this fundraiser? Please don’t misunderstand me; I like the idea, will be buying in myself and believe it will enhance the overall ecosystem. But will XCP be used within the swarm framework at all? Or just BTC? In order for XCP liquidity to improve, the projects built on top of counterparty should encourage the use of XCP.

xbet.io have made some big additions to their website.

this is their new control panel for users.

really helped me understand what was going on with my bets and it works perfectly with counterwallet.

This has been fixed earlier in the develop branch: https://github.com/CounterpartyXCP/counterpartyd/commit/e64312d064da1a5ed8b6e52744e99fc40f8d12d0

We'll get it ported into master, since it looks like it will be a bit before we merge develop into master again.

For now, feel free to edit the code yourself, directly, to fix the problem.

I've manually patched api.py but I am still getting:

Code:

counterpartyd wallet

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/jeremy/counterpartyd_build/dist/counterpartyd/counterpartyd.py", line 837, in 
    address_data = get_address(db, address=address)
  File "/home/jeremy/counterpartyd_build/dist/counterpartyd/counterpartyd.py", line 29, in get_address
    address_dict['balances'] = util.api('get_balances', {'filters': [('address', '==', address),]})
  File "/home/jeremy/counterpartyd_build/dist/counterpartyd/lib/util.py", line 50, in api
    raise exceptions.RPCError('{}'.format(response_json['error']))
lib.exceptions.RPCError: {'data': {'type': 'NameError', 'args': ["global name 'a' is not defined"], 'message': "global name 'a' is not defined"}, 'message': 'Server error', 'code': -32000}

'a' is not very easy to search for references for...

Is there a traceback printing in counterpartyd.log? If so, that would probably have a line number to the error. If it's something we haven't fixed, we'll get it fixed once we know the location (given that you said you already patched the bug we already fixed).

Seems like this has been fixed after I updated this evening. Thanks.

I dont know if this is the correct topic but regarding swarm kind of ipo i think the second phase is ridiculous, 17,000 btcs will not be fulfilled and less chance if they dont reveal technical aspecs, they only say this will be a awesome coin, project, bla bla but dont say why.

17,000 BTC is a very ambitious target, I admit that. We focused at the moment at reaching the 4,000 BTC goal, but if we do actually reach 17,000 BTC we will have a lot of funds to help support projects (e.g. other things that enhance the Counterparty ecosystem), so I hope we do a larger amount.

At the moment we actually need to stay focused on building the platform, like the dashboard we released on launch.
