How feasible would it be for the Bitcoin devs to duplicate Counterparty's functionality without the XCP coin?

It's not possible.

What would make it impossible?  I was just digging around and found this post from over a year ago with the opposite answer to the same question:

I'd like to know a bit more about the 32 federated servers.  How is the required "user support" obtained which allows someone to run one of the federated servers?  How often are the federated server re-assigned?

Once the blockchain is live, are there any options for storing Factoids besides on an exchange or with the non-GUI wallet?

What do you mean Ripple Labs sets the XRP price?
Exactly what it says.
As it is a centralized company they have full control of the price. If they want the price to go up they simple dont dump for a day. Unlike Bitcoin where a set number of coins is mined a day and noone can say no new coins today.
Ripple has only one indention to know when, where, what cola you drank, where you have spent some money, when you farded, what you eat, what you earn, basically you end up being a marionette.

What does being a centralized company have to do with price control in this situation?  I'm not a centralized company but I can dump my holding and bring down the price too.  There are a set number of XRP (100 billiion).

Ripple isn't mined at all.  So Ripple Labs decides what they sell it for.

But there has to be a buyer willing to pay that price just like any other market.  Still confused.

The price of XRP has been pretty stable for 2 or 3 months but has now dropped to levels not seen since 11/14.  Could this be Ripple selling XRP to pay their government fine?

Why is this the first we are hearing about Q3? It would have been great information to have known before investing. If you don't state otherwise, people assume that you are ready to launch soon after your sale ends. Not very cool

I asked ahead of time and I was told exchanges would be able to integrate Factoids starting May 15th.  I think we're waiting on the exchanges at this point.

What about Coinbase's separate exchange?

http://exchange.coinbase.com

Very low fees:

so this is one of the criteria for milestone 2 ( Q3 2015) "[A]. Storefront for selling Factoids and/or converting them into Entry Credits for users."
 
I want to ask who will be behind the Storefront "selling Factiods" then? (because all initial factoid supply was created after the public sale)

Excellent question.

Back to 1M$ market cap, what's going on Storj?

How close is Storj to being ready to host decentralised storage-related applications?

No Idea, but I think maidsafe will hit testnet 3 within two weeks.

I don't think so:

The main idea is to add liquidity and buy support to BTCD.

Shouldn't InstantDEX be taking care of that imminently?

Why do you ask? Don't you want to use exchanges?

Not sure what you mean here.

Given that it's all integrated, I'm not sure why you're asking. What's the downside?

I'm wondering if SuperNET can be used without a centralized/distributed service like Coinomat or MGW.
Potentially SuperNET is completely decentralized, but it sure takes time

I'm pretty much trying to figure out if that's true or not (and having a hard time doing it).  I do know this: Any features of SuperNET that can't be used without Coinomat or MGW are not decentralized.

Well, yes it can. SuperNET is many things, so each element can be used depending on what you're looking for. I'm still not sure why you're asking though - what's the downside to using MGW, which is already integrated into the client and requires no extra effort?

The downside is it is not decentralized.  It's controlled by 3 parties.

Have you guys seen this:

Very similar to what MaidSafe is doing.

How big of a concern is it that Bitcoin could build Counterparty-esque functionality directly into their protocol?

So leverage basically makes your profit and loss increase faster than it would without leverage?
