Developers: Note that I made a recent backwards-incompatible commit to the 'develop' branch that changed the "/jsonrpc/" API endpoint to be "/api/" instead. So in your API calls, you need to make a similar change once you update to this rev (or these changes are pushed to master and you are using master). We did this to standardize to using "/api/" for API endpoints with counterpartyd and counterwalletd.

For more info, see: https://github.com/PhantomPhreak/counterpartyd/commit/c5aca7967353f0ad51c3087b231609a4265a80dd

So, I just updated and we're on database 9 now I presume. How often will these database updates occur ?

It's shouldn't become a "normal" thing. We had several updates lately that required a rebuild due to lower level security tightening that Phantom was doing.

Cryptsy doesn't trade Mastercoin, wonder why not, I'm sure the setup is similar to counterparty. I wonder if they steer away from meta style coins.

OK as far as I oversee, there are several GUIs in development right now. Wouldnt it be better to concentrate all effort of several programmers into ONE general GUI?
Pull together instead of doing ones own thing. I think the others dont sleep, noone wants to be outstriped by the competitors  Grin

No, because the desktop GUI is a full client (i.e. works against your own instance of counterpartyd and bitcoind), which also runs as a desktop application. Counterwallet is a light web wallet that works against a set of servers in the cloud. It's important that we have GUIs for both approaches, as the desktop GUI aims to provides the ultimate in decentralization and trustlessness, as you are running your own counterpartyd and bitcoind instances, while Counterwallet offers zero-setup with the highest level of trustlessness/decentralization possible given its zero setup nature (through its Federated Nodes concept).

So basically, the different GUIs target two different kinds of users in many ways. As the desktop GUI's featureset expands, there will be the option to run a more lightweight version of it most likely, but it will always retain the ability to work against one's own bitcoind and coutnerpartyd.

You don't need to wait for the web wallet, check out Jah's GUI client

https://github.com/JahPowerBit/BoottleXCP

You can find builds for Windows by flatfly

Tried yesterday, it works like a charm !

Altough now i'm more comfortable with the command line  Grin

 I need to read some more, I want to issue an asset.

Can Counterparty be used to set up an asset that trades off *any existing alt coin? (would appreciate link to noob instructions!)
- Counterparty works only on the bitcoin blockchain ledger. It will not work on top of any other currency's blockchain.
- An asset can be created in Counterparty that represents an alt-coin, for example LTC. This asset can be traded against XCP in DEX. The person who has issued this asset needs to back it up with real LTC.
- Creating an asset comes at a cost, currently 5 XCP I think.

Have a look at the Counterparty wiki, specifically the assets section https://counterparty.co/wiki/assets

OK thats very helpful thanks. I hope the web wallets can simplify the command line stuff for asset issuing.

It kinda seems like this thread got quiet, as far as engaging information goes.
