To resolve this issue, Counterparty has developed the first step towards trustless multiplayer games such as poker and chess. Due to the distributed nature of this solution, nobody can control the outcome of any game except the players themselves. Using Counterparty and Bitcoin transactions, the future of online gaming can be like the future of money itself: decentralized.

To show you what we mean, we actually built Rock-Paper-Scissors (RPS) and Rock-Paper-Scissors-Lizard-Spock (RPSLS) into Counterparty! And the underlying system allows you to do a lot more than just play rock-paper-scissors… You can play any game of this type with an odd number of possible moves.

Blockchain based poker? I'm absolutely floored. Is such a thing even possible?  Shocked

I'm testing out Rock-Paper-Scissor. I'm playing with 1 XCP.

It's still pending after four hours. It will be matched as soon as someone else plays, right?

We are still in the "innovators" stage, so this is not very surprising. We have several more large UI changes upcoming, which should make it easier for people to use Counterparty, and help move us into the "early adopter" stage.

Sounds good. I like Counterparty and I think it has a lot to offer. Am looking forward to the upgrades. Are the new changes whats causing this to happen when I try to log in right now?

"No counterparty servers are currently available. Please try again later. ERROR: Request Time out."

Never seen that one before. Thanks.

The new counterblockd is having some issues with a few of the non-essential periodic checks that are causing it to become unreachable for brief periods of time. I've tried disabling these checks in the code for now, and we'll see if that fixes the problem, pending more tweaking of the logic to not cause issues.

he who has the gold makes the rules
I was just checking out the number of assets on blockscan  =  1477

pretty cool, the protocol is still charging all these asset squatters 5 xcp each right?

http://blockscan.com/asset.aspx

that would mean that there is about 0.3% less xcp in circulation, exciting Smiley

btw if anyone wants some LOVE or ROSE let me know - these are vintage non-divisible assets created during the burn.

http://blockscan.com/assetInfo.aspx?q=LOVE

http://blockscan.com/assetInfo.aspx?q=ROSE

Only 1 Trillion ROSE and LOVE in the entire world!  that's less than 200 for every man, woman and child!  Grin

You just need to send me some small amount of btc to cover the cost of sending them back to you

Hello everyone,

In the past couple of days, XBet.IO has been the subject of a massive DDOS (destributed denial of service) attack and therefore was not accessible.

The matter is being dealt with and XBet.IO is back online.

If you can't beat them, DDOS them - so we must be doing something right.

Thank you for your paitiance.

Expect a new, game changing, feature real soon.

I really don't understand why you wrote this here, this thread not about XBet.IO.

don't think too hard.... might hurt too much

XCP - The future of crypto-commodities trading, direct from farmer to food.

If you have 1 SOYBEANS, you can trade it in for 1 pound of my food grade soybeans before the end of 2014.

...

DISCLAIMER: This is not a currency, security, or any other sort of money transmission instrument or regulated commodities trade. If you buy SOYBEANS, you are buying a pre-order coupon(s) exchangeable for 1 pound of food-grade non-gmo soybeans. The transaction is only considered final once the US dollars for selling bitcoin actually end up in a 7 elements LLC bank account.

LOL, good luck with this.  Technically, a "coupon" that represents an ownership interest in soybeans is a security.  A "coupon" is literally, historically, a little tear-off piece of an actual security document.  But you would at least have a decent argument against facing any kind of regulatory action, in that the SEC makes absolutely no attempt to regulate similar securities issued by companies such as Groupon and LivingSocial.

I still can not get anyone to use counterparty Sad

Me neither.

What's the point of these messages except to let us know that you possibly need to improve your skills?

To let other people know that they are not alone in their frustration.

Counterwallet 1.3.0 RC1 Released and live!

New features in this release:

* Added Rock-Paper-Scissors
* Added Zeroconf support (show pending balances for assets)
* Added IP-based blocking capabilities for betting, RPS and dividend issuance features. We are currently blocking people with US-based IP addresses from using these features on counterwallet.co itself.

(Please don't complain about the last one. As US citizens, we are voluntarily choosing to do this in good faith, to reduce any potential legal risk from the operation of counterwallet.co.)

The full changelog is over at https://github.com/CounterpartyXCP/counterwallet/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

Want your crypto represented in a line of physical proofs?

We have had inquiries from a few crypto development teams and/or supporters regarding having a line of proofs created for their crypto and are pleased to announce support of this concept going forward! The way this works is that prepayment for 30% of the inventory would be required and we will cover the remaining upfront investment of time and labor. Once the line is completed and assembled, your 30% of the inventory for which you prepaid will be shipped to you. Finite By Design, LLC will own, list and support the sale of the remaining 70% of the inventory to recoup our portion of the investment and profit.

Example (using made up "FiniteCoin"):

Members of the "FiniteCoin" community decide they want a physical representation of their crypto created and supported by Finite By Design, LLC. The "FiniteCoin" community decides on the quantity of proofs they desire (50) as well as the composition (1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver). Once this is determined, the payment for 30% of the inventory (15 proofs) or $1,500 is made and the production process begins. In about 8 weeks the new line of proofs is completed, the 15 proofs are mailed (to one centralized address for further redistribution) and Finite By Design, LLC lists, supports and advertises the remaining inventory of 35 proofs.

Variations are available depending on quantity of proofs and material of composition - please contact via email for discussion of alternative options.

We are testing the multi-server configuration for Counterwallet over the next few days. Let us know if you experience any oddness such as zero balances being displayed, errors accessing the site, etc.
(And note, if you see zero or incorrect balances, it's an error on the counterwallet side, instead of anything actually changing with your balance. You can verify at www.blockscan.com to be sure.)

NOTE: At this point I am seeing some issues with the chat feature that didn't come out in dev testing. I'll be looking more into those today.

Also, 2 new system stats pages:

XBet.IO is proud to launch our latest development - Direct Bitcoin Betting

Betting using the counterparty protocol has never been simpler for BTC holders. Through the XBet.IO application, users can choose to bet safe using XCP and can also bet instantly using BTC.

How it Works:

Send Bitcoins to the address provided for your bet and XBet.IO will place the bet on your behalf.

Your winnings, and any unmatched part of your bet, will be sent to the payout address you specify prior to depositing. It is best to use an address from counterwallet.co as a payout address.


Please be advised - This system is new and so we urge you to only bet small amounts of BTC at first.

User feedback helps us improve, and therefore it is very much appreciated.

I really don't understand why you wrote this here, this thread not about XBet.IO.

The XCP community has a great interest in the feed sites and developers that build applications on top of the counterparty protocol and give it value so our post has great relevance to this thread as well.

We aim to keep our users informed of major events related to our application and want to address them where they are instead of expecting them to go through our thread for updates. As you may have noticed, we do not tend to flood the XCP thread with unnecessary posts. We only write when there is new information that is relevant to the XCP community, like in this case.

Exactly.
