Anyone know what is reason for that so rarely exchanges have took XCP for their list?
I have sent about once a month or two request to many exchanges and answer have been same last one year about like "we will look and are really interested about this coin and will maybe add it later..."
Same time there is like Cryptsy what have taking every cat, moon, weed and car coins for trading. Why not XCP?

Counterpartying
Hi guys
I have read quite a bit of the counterparty documentation, especially the non dev stuff. But I still do not understand what the XCP token is used for as anyone can create their own custom token. Can someone explain?

Sincerely

Its main use case will be as gas to power the computations of smart contracts, like ether on Ethereum.
can you expand on that?

My understanding is that a smart contract is made up of various computations, the exact makeup of which will depend on the contract. A limited amount of computations in a very simple smart contract may not require XCP to fuel it, but anything over X computations will require gas. XCP is the gas for smart contracts on the Counterparty platform. Additionally, when XCP is used to fuel a smart contract, that XCP will be burnt, reducing the total supply of XCP.
I still dont know what gas is if it is not some fancy word for tx fee.

This here http://ethereum.gitbooks.io/frontier-guide/content/costs.html sounds a bit like gas is a tx fee that is the higher the more computation your contract takes. But since Counterparty tx are processed by Bitcoin miners I don't understand why they would accept XCP?

XCP will not be used to process transactions, but will power smart contracts, like you found in Ethereum. Bitcoin miners will not accept XCP, nor will they need to. Transactions will be processed with Bitcoin, like normal. XCP will be used to power smart contracts and will be burnt afterwards -- nobody will accept the XCP or even have the opportunity to. Once XCP is used in this manner it will be beyond anyone's reach.

Your question is good as this is slightly different than Ethereum because Counterparty is a layer on top of Bitcoin. I hope I adequately explained the difference.

So what's up with the Symbiont cryprosecurity issuance?  Can I buy it?  What are they doing next?

Unknown, no, unknown.

Long time not in bitcointalk. How is XCP now? I am in a trip at US now and may have a chance to meet the US XCP fans.

Very thin order book and devout holders. More volume will drive the price way up

Hard to say goodbye to any xcps for the tech literate crowd Smiley

how many coin dumps?

Someone sold 3.3k XCP in one order, which caused the price to go down quite a bit due to a thin order book.

Yeah.

Never seem to have low bids when the right timing happens  Grin

Nice pump in counterparty, I'm still bullish on xcp. I think overall the market is really undervalued. It will take time, but I think it is a really valuable tool.

Anybody else getting this error when trying to login?



logged into my wallet no problem.  reading through counterparty support forum and it appears a few people have had this problem.          https://counterpartytalk.org/t/counterwallet-login-issues/926/18

Fixed for coindaddy's main net implementation. It was a mem overflow due to Bitcoin spam flood.

Thanks for fixing! Smiley

You've missed a trick - there were two entirely independent pieces of news yesterday. One related to Symbiont (and Counterparty) and the other related to T0. People were riled up over the former wrt. XCP.
I invested because i thought symbiont sounded neat.
XCP is really nice ~

Avatars are overrated.
