EDIT: I fixed the bug and pushed to GitHub.

Great, market view is working again.
Now shouldn't the system match these 2 orders?
Code:
| Give Quantity | Give Asset | Get Quantity | Get Asset |    Price     | Price Assets |  Fee   | Time Left |       Tx Hash       |
|       25      |    TEST    |     0.1      |    XCP    |    0.0040    |   XCP/TEST   | 0.0001 |    9866   | a751987c...90d05a76 |
|     0.004     |    XCP     |      1       |    TEST   |   250.0000   |   TEST/XCP   | 0.0001 |     2     | 5d46f970...518978cc |

Hmm. I'll look into that...

I put up some more TEST orders of varying sizes, if you want to try matching them.

I fixed the problem. It was a rounding error. But yes, please do put up more orders!

The drawback is that they will have no enough money to hire more developers and provide bounties. The advantage is that the community is more willing to contribute to this project as long as they get some XCP. It's like open-source community project vs. private company project.

That my point exactly, where from these XCP's are going to be paid off?

If the developers are not allocating some development fund (and apparently they not), the only source for these XCP would be the community, which may actually prefer hoarding the coins, rather then donating them for the cause.

Any thoughts from developers about this potential issue?

The developers already burned at least 4 BTC, if not much more (20-40 is probably around the right ballpark).

I just created a new order to buy 1 TEST for 0.004 XCP. Seems I crashed the "counterpartyd market" view with this, I'm getting this error now:
Code:
lib.exceptions.QuantityError: Fractional quantities of indivisible assets.

Edit: Here's the command I used to create an order for 1 TEST:
Code:
./counterpartyd.py order --from=1B9S7nhAsQeGnU6DWqaMF1G2jamLSFNJkV --get-quantity=1 --get-asset=TEST --give-quantity=0.004 --give-asset=XCP --expiration=10

The system shows my order to be for "0.00000001 TEST":
http://blockscan.com/order.aspx

It seems the "get-quantity" parameter is denominated in a Satoshi style (1 / 100,000,000), is that correct? So if I would like to buy 1 TEST I actually have to use this parameter: "get-quantity=100000000".

I'm pretty sure that that's a bug in blockscan.com. Amounts of indivisible assets (like TEST) should not be divided by 10^8 for display the way that divisible assets are.

EDIT: mtbitcoin, that 'orders' page looks great (I love the colour-coded 'Remarks' column)!

Ok, so "--get-quantity=1" was the correct way?
And still the market view shows an error, so there must be a bug in counterpartyd as well.

That's the correct way, and there's definitely a bug in counterpartyd.

EDIT: I fixed the bug and pushed to GitHub.

Hi! Sorry for the dumb question, but where can I see my balance once a burn was successful?
Currently counterparty-explorer.com only shows the XCP obtained by burning. To check the XCP sent by others (e.g. sent by Maxmint), please use blockscan.com instead.

Thank you very much! So the XCP is bound to the BTC address.

If anyone is unable to burn Bitcoins, I'm offering a "escrow burn" service. You can send me your Bitcoins, I burn them for you and send back XCP to an address of your choice.
All details and a request form are here:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1GY1pNSLo8PUW8cSb9WJC8OdQOdrZ510pGEXTBIvq3i0

My trust feedback page is here. If you have questions, please just send a PM.

Burnt 1BTC via maxmint today, all went smoothly and received my XCP quickly.  Cheers Max.

I just sent XCP for an escrow burn, the block containing the transaction was mined by BTC Guild. Sending XCP is done with multi-sig outputs at the moment, so I don't see any reason for pools not to include the transactions.
Oh,I missed the multi-sig output. Thanks for pointing it out.

HOW to send XCP ?

Here's how I do it:
Quote
./counterpartyd.py send --from=[sending_address] --to=[receiving_address] --quantity=[quantity] --asset=XCP
Got it,many thanks.
Then it works ?
Which pool is accepting the blocks with the XCP transactions ?
(sorry I did not follow the whole thread)

is it known how long the IOU will last?

AFAIK until the end of January (this date is set in source code, so no NXT scenario here...).
