Is back, seriously?

This demonstrates utter lack of respect to people who worked on other colored coins implementations like CoinPrism, CoinSpark, etc.

CoinPrism offered a mainnet web wallet since May 2014, and it already has quite a few users and assets.

But, apparently, it isn't for real until it is done by Meiri and his team.

Call me a pessimist but I never see this catching on.


(feel free to quote in the future if I am wrong)

I don't see them as something that will catch on, but they can certainly be useful to learn from .. Isn't it just like how altcoins exist but are never able to tackle bitcoins ?

I agree. I don't want it to catch on either. Seems just like it adds negativity to bitcoin and something we don't need or want to see.

How does this add negativity?

It will be long, long time before colored coins reshape the world of smart contracts
That said, the future usually is upon us faster than we originally imagine

Colored coins will have a standardized protocol
From one of the original Colored Coins co-founders, there is a team based in Tel Aviv working on formalizing the original Colored Coins project.

"Colu’s app is now in beta, Mr. Meiri said. It is opening up its API to be used by other apps. Colu’s tokens are based on a protocol Mr. Meiri and other team members developed several years ago called Colored Coins, which itself is layered on top of bitcoin."
