I guess it's about time to add Counterparty / XCP, now that it surpassed MastecCoin in coinmarketcap (7th position now). Having similar function as Mastercoin, though: * being fully community based and distributed (almost no known heavy holders here) * issued via first massive Proof-Of-Burn process (more then 2124 BTC are lost forever, being converted to XCP) * having the first worldwide *working* distributed exchange and asset exchange (smart property) * listed on poloniex exchange * traded volume is 4x higher then Mastercoin I guess it warrants a place at "BIG and IMPORTANT CRYPTO'S" section  . Thanks! |

As soon as the Web wallet is out I'm donating a few Grand!!!!
+1 - just give us a wallet to send XCP's already! |
|

XCP's market cap has now exceeded Mastercoin's!
P.S. Bear in mind, that the current valuation is WITHOUT a popular desktop GUI (bounty still being decided I think) and web wallet.
P.P.S. How long do you think it'll be before the media perk up and notice a new Top 10 (or even Top 5?) coin?
Wow, this was much faster then I expected! (Seriously people, some of us need to work today ). |

I just saw a BTCpay of 7 a few blocks ago. Things are getting serious...
For those 'regret' threads: Do I wish that I had not sold some early and not burned more (even though I did go through most of my little bit of cold storage)? Possibly. Do I think about it? Nah. The way is forward, not back. Make projects, do marketing, get stuff done to earn more.
PS From the looks of it, most commentors on this thread probably burned more than me.
+1 - there are always will be new opportunities and we just getting started here (and yes - the last fact probably holds true for me as well - especially looking at top 4 here http://blockscan.com/balance.aspx ). |

I can't reach Poloniex. Anyone else getting a timeout?
I'm not sure what that was. All I know is that it was not web traffic. It was either a lapse in available bandwidth, or someone testing the waters to see what it would take to do a DDoS. I'll have to sift through some logs to determine that. Now that you're here, are you going to fix the exorbitant 1 XCP transaction fee? Yeah, it's getting a bit high. I've lowered it to 0.35 XCP, minimum withdrawal now 3 XCP. +1! (and congrats for becoming large enough to start attracting competitors attention - please consider cloudflare!) |

Wow, 8 place on coinmarketcap, right below MSC, with 3x-4x higher trading volume. (Sometimes, there is such thing as a good Sunday morning ). |

I'm more thinking about the darker future scenarios where banks are explicitly trying to stop all such trades, which means blanket bans on exchanges - I think that's what this technology is really for.
You might be surprised, but I know of at least one country where it already happens (at least with Gox bank address) with all the major banks. With a bit of Googling, you will find which country I mean. |

Another possible exchange goal - Vault of Satoshi: Next Time on The Vault...
Over the course of February and March, we'll have a lot of exciting announcements to make. Here's a sneak peek at what's around the corner for VoS:
Coin-to-coin trading -- no more pesky fiat required!
Authy two-factor authentication
More coins -- Mastercoin and NXT
Market orders, and shorting if you're lucky
Multilingual support -- Parlez-vous français? Mais oui!
More user interface improvements -- you can never be too pretty
Generally, more awesomeness to come
I suggest people contact them at hello@vaultofsatoshi.com ( https://www.vaultofsatoshi.com/contact) and ask to show some love for XCP as well! |

Can you tell us how they manage to pick out btc related transactions assuming no central exchange account is used and people do not use any comments like "BTC trade id:1234" in the tx?
I will research that more to get some facts, but if you are more familiar with that area maybe you could add valueable input here or post some links to good resources?
Again, my knowledge is limited to a certain project I did in the area, during which I was exposed (under strict NDA) to some involved technologies. The companies in question used an analytic tech platform, which allowed reviewing every transaction against a very broad of both personal and external patterns and trends. While you right about people not mentioning BTC in transaction (although I did seen few that did!), I still can envision a situation, where blockchain transactions are being reviewed to match to a particular wire transfer, based on the exchange rate at the moment of transfer (for example). As said this will cause many false positives, but as the tech in question is self-training (at least from what I seen), it may eventually recognize a repeating pattern and flag (including showing the prediction accuracy %) both accounts as participating in the crypto trading. Long shot - but the chance of this happening (if there is enough pressure) is certainly there. |

Now that an interesting idea! Need to dust off my Pi . |
|
|
|
|
Btw, anyone noticed that volume is already higher than MSC (at least on coinmarketcap)?
|

I have some (limited) familiarity with banks and credit cards company fraud prevention systems, and I think that with enough interest, they *might* implement crypto-analytics to try and correlate wired transfers to crypto ones, and block/limit the relevant bank accounts.
That said, it probably will take quite some time until they decide to do that, plus will probably generate a lot of false positives.
In any case, this protocol should be much safer for crypto buyers / sellers, than a central exchange bank account (that can be easily traced and blocked), and I personally know some people who were hit by their banks for such transactions exactly.
Just my 2c.

Great work everyone indeed! Does it take only from polonex, or also from Dex? |

I did some rework on the existing logo. Added some depth and dark colors. This could be a temporary logo waiting for an official one by Matt Y buddy.  Hi def HEREWow - awesome! Can / should we add the circle (the coin theme)? |
|
|
|
Have we decided on a logo yet?
Believe most are a fan of one of these   I beg to differ. This is not professionnal looking, and IMHO not balanced. I prefer the one on the top left here (with other colors) http://www.reddit.com/r/xcpMissed that one - Reddit logo with left (clear) logo colors combined will be great. |

192px versions:   I will make source Illustrator files available if there is interest. I like the first one! +1 - imho clean design always better (and saves ink! ) |

you guys see this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=462236 ? idea is to use "collateral" in place of escrow, it can be used to create trustless p2p ebay, to me this is definitely the iphone invention somehow the idea might be able to expand to xcp plaform Wow, if done right, this basically can solve the whole fiat to crypto problem (that almost totally controlled by banks today). Reading it seems ideal for XCP, any ideas how this can be implemented? |

Is there an official XCP coin graphic that we can send to poloniex, all the other coins have graphics on front page of https://www.poloniex.com/XCP is already on the pending orders page there! Seems like very soon we can trade XCP on normal exchange coinmarketcap here we come! To speed up this matter, perhaps any of the below can be temporary used: http://take.ms/BASGm(These are some initial logo mock-ups we did for XCP some time ago - they are not officially endorsed by XCP team in any way). |

Hi, can you at least answer my first question before you put me in my place? Thanks.
I actually had no intention whatsoever to do so, and merely was excited by the fact we already speculate on price from the first Dex order-book out there. Sorry if it sounded that way. As per your question, if the GUI written in cross-platform language (python for example), I see no reason why it won't be released on Mac as well. |
