Noobie question here:
I own a couple hundred of those XCPs, but they are linked to my BTC paper wallet in which I also have some BTC.
Now, I am not in a hurry to get neither of those out of the paper wallet, but if I were to do so, what would be the proper procedure to not lose anything?
Thanks for your time.

I believe you can simply import the private key (sweep) into a running Bitcoin-QT client with Counterpartyd side-by side when you are ready.
It may also be possible with the forthcoming counterwallet, which is a web-wallet front end to counterwalletd, talking to counterpartyd back-end, but don't quote me on that

Current reward for burning 1 btc? Will this coin remain scarce?
Do not burn any more BTC, burn period is over weeks ago. If you need to get some hands on counterparty checkout, the distributed marketplace or https://poloniex.com/exchange/btc_xcp.
Distributed Exchange:
http://blockscan.com/order_book.aspx
(This is the very first Distributed Exchange created on top of the Bitcoin platform).
Stock issuance and Dividend payments on top of the Counterparty platform

Current reward for burning 1 btc? Will this coin remain scarce?
The burn period is over.
Buy orders via centralised exchange (poloniex) is currently at 0.01BTC per XCP meaning 100 XCP for every 1BTC.
XCP has a fixed supply of no more than 2,648,756 XCP. This would not increase day to day, month to month or year to year, because there is no concept of proof-of-work mining to introduce fresh coins to the supply on regular intervals (and therefore inflate- Bitcoin would need approx 2.3 million $ of fresh income per 24hours in order to maintain it's current price level, XCP does not need to compensate miners ). This number could only ever decrease. (for example, with loss of private keypairs) so to answer your question, yes this coin has scarcity-value if that is what interests you.
The real excitement will come when we begin to see web wallets, dramatically lowering the barrier to entry. real use of decentralised aspects of exchange, for example an asset issuer taking advantage of this mechanism

The burn period is over. Try out the distributed exchange! It says on page one. I was late to discover this, too.

Yeah, no hype. True, but we need to market to bring many people on board.
I want create a divisible asset from scratch (burning a small amount of BTC is fine). Can someone help me in PM? I have Windows 7 ATM...
This is the better way to bring people, through usage.
Marketing has the tendency to create unmet expectations.

What makes this so special?
Counterparty is a community created protocol, which allows anyone to make and use decentralized financial assets that utilize the bitcoin protocol as a transport layer in order to provide the following functionalities:
- Distributed exchange
- Financial derivatives
- User created assets
- Dividends
- Betting
Counterparty differs from projects that hope to eventually offer a similar functionality because:
- Fully functioning - We are live.
- No IPO - Counterparty is a currency, not a corporation.
- No funding - Donation driven.
- No corporate ties - Free from outside influences.
- No fees - Free to use.
- No hype - The technology speaks for itself.
- Anonymous creators - Focus is on the protocol.
- Fair initial distribution - Risk and opportunity were shared equally.
- Development speed - Created from scratch in about a month.
- Open source - Anyone can add additional functionality.
+1
Yeah, no hype. True, but we need to market to bring many people on board.

You are running the command with "sudo", which means that you are effectively running it as root. Don't type "sudo" before the command.

Where can I buy counterparty?
Centralized (best for newbies): https://www.poloniex.com/exchange
Decentralized (best if you already have some): install counterpartyd, and view the order list: http://www.blockscan.com/order_book.aspx
(wow, triple post).

Where can I buy counterparty?
The 'true' way is to buy via the DEX, which currently requires installing Bitcoin-QT and counterpartyd
an easier way for new users is to use a centralised exchange. Poloniex lists XCP here https://www.poloniex.com/exchange/btc_xcp
