This is great! Did you have to hunt down and patch together APIs for all these different currencies? I was wondering if there is a data feed for all these different assets to use in a portfolio manager, or maybe such a crypto portfolio manager exists already.

yes, we are fetching APIs of 27 exchanges every 30 secs

and yes, we offering free portfolio for all 300+ cryptocurrencies on our website and as apps for Android and iPhone

in case you need an API, it's right here https://www.cryptonator.com/api

I am selling shares on counterparty to fund my music! You will receive dividends of all album sales, gigs played, and commission projects (such as video game music)!

I am selling 20% of NICEPLUM.

For more info, check the reddit thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/27a7eo/support_my_music_by_buying_niceplum_shares_on_a/

I started one of the first online music archive in the world back in 1994 alongside IUMA. Using MP2 technology Smiley We always thought this is exactly the way artists should structure their "business". I have mulled over this idea for years and there's never been a way to do this until now.

A front-end built on top of CounterParty would be amazing for this. In any case i think you are WAY ahead of the curve here. Pump it for all it's worth. You need to think hard about how much of your revenue you want to give away. I'm not sure what you've got going but think about ALL revenue you can generate from performing, song sales, merchandise. Other artists will be doing this soon i have no doubt in my mind. It's 20 years in the making.

Great to see this!

We will have a Counterparty directory going up here in the next week, with the goal of tracking all of the efforts launching on top of the platform. Chris from our team is putting this together right now.

Tatianacoin Launched

I'd like to announce the launch of Tatianacoin on Counterparty and Coinpowers.com. I'm sure many of you guys have heard of it via Let's Talk Bitcoin.

This is a big moment as it marks the launch of the first artist coin on the platform, and both Tatiana and Coinpowers have some great plans for this area in the future.

For more information, please see our blog post: https://www.counterparty.co/tatiana-coin-launched-via-coin-powers-and-counterparty/
Also see Adam Levine's interview with Tatiana here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27soRPs4M2Y

There also was a article release about the fiasco of the crowdsale of maidsafe.

http://www.forbes.com/sites/kashmirhill/2014/06/03/mastercoin-maidsafe-crowdsale/

You never know if those planned crowdsale's might back out.

Mastercoin has just released an enticing list of upcoming crowd sales for their platform with timelines:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/27834t/upcoming_crowdsales_worth_tens_of_millions_of/

among the planned releases are Open Garden and other interesting offerings including an app for decentralized transportation and renewable energy solutions.

Is there such a list for Counterparty too?

Currently not, however, it's a good idea and I assume the guys will add this to the site as time and resources allow.

the market cap of Counterparty is close to the Mastercoin one, only 100,00$ behind. We are on the verge of a historical moment!

It happened last night for a bit: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nttxfkul74qjubk/Screenshot%202014-06-02%2022.41.23.png

Please correct me if there is a single file download to run counterparty, i.e. the wallet software.

There isn't. But as I understand developers could package node-webkit version of counterwallet quite trivially. Such a build could come from anyone really but coming from main counterparty team would be best.

I think it would be a positive thing in relation to the time it would take. People can have a strong interest to a native app on their desktop- especially electrum like lightweight clients. more than visiting website, it can feel more secure or local to them (even if the app is essentially browser window in a form)  Counterparty can then market a lightweight win/osx/linux wallet being available.



Yes, this what is plan. First step is to make a Chrome App, this will be the lightweight client. Because in fact lightweight wallet and web wallet are same thing (the only difference is the UI hosted on server or locally). After that for heavy wallet we have a bunch of work on Counterblockd to make it installable on every computer (the ideal is to have no more dependencies than counterpartyd).
The urgency for now I think it's to have an heavy wallet. For that I really need to find time to work on BoottleXCP. I need one or two days to update it. I hope this week-end if I finish "My bets" pages before. After that I need also 3 or 4 days to make BoottleXCP light with pyrpcwallet. But is less urgent because for light wallet there is CW.


Is there any update here? I think a node-webkit build of CounterWallet like CarbonWallet would be attractive to some users (plus you can market as having native win/osx/linux lightweight wallets). I tried to build myself unsuccessfully, but I think for someone who has knowledge of the project it should be easy right?

This would be good. A group of us are developing a dual or quad core ARM based secure coinbox with key switch or USB key to enable spends and configuration. It runs Bitcoin and PoS coins for always-on operation and is accessible over the user's LAN. We just got a nice little quad core ARM board with 8 GB eMMC, SD slot and 1 Gb DDR2 to run Ubuntu.  We have some coins running on R-Pi, to port over to the quad core board when ready. R-Pi maxes out with a single coin.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Counterwallet get hacked and a few bitcoins got stolen?
How this could happen is what I wounder, since you say it's not possible.

There was a bug in bitcoinjs library: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/reused-r-values-again-581411 which could be exploited under limited scenarios
Very similar to hacks which had happened on Android wallets
this issue had been resolved a while back. Developers had refunded the marginal losses out of their own pockets. (and whoever exploited the bug had returned the BTC after)
