Ok, first off this is a great idea I really like it but there are some things I would advise to reconsider.
1. Altcoins are in a huge depression, your starting price leaves little upward mobility in the current state of crypto. (one example I can think of is Archcoin which has multiple real companies being built around it and is also legit but look at the price ~6k sats with the support of a dev wielding 1000's of btc)
2. How do you plan to support the price? This is the worst fear of all ICO's lately even ones with good devs (blocknet,tilecoin,BAY etc etc) have shown prices crash; all of us are just plain tired and broke from too many crowdsales that never reach a decent price.
3. Show me one coin with similar coin count that has launched in the past 4 months that is over 5k satoshi. (not including VIA)
I am not trying to FUD, but I think you would have greater success lowering prices/modifying coin counts etc.

Counterparty recreated ethereum smart contracts, are plans in the works for clearing house to do so as well?
We do keep up today with upstream changes from counterparty, so when this is stable we'll merge it. Gotta take my hats off to them, that was a pretty epic move  Agreed! Glad to hear  wow, we will have the same thing but on a lightspeed blockchain without political bariers, with custody chains and treechains in the future! Do you guys realize this!!! Yes WE do, but it seems no one else gets it. I swear XCH is stupidly undervalued it's painful for me to watch my 8 btc investment shrink to 3.5. (risk is part of crypto i know but still wtf XCH is awesome  |

gimpcoin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=853195.0Heritage: CZECoin( https://github.com/Czecoin-project/Czecoin-master) Problems: * MINOR: alert keys are not changed from forked coin. Network alerts can not be sent * MODERATE: sync checkpoint key is not set. PoS coins are considered somewhat insecure without sync checkpoints * MODERATE: genesis seed is not a news event * MODERATE: future and past time drift allowance is excessive at 1 day. Bitcoin limits this to 2 hours, and most PoS coins limit it to 15 minutes * MODERATE: Launch was somewhat unfair/borked. The github with code was discovered by some people before announcement. This appeared to only last until around blokc 60 though. 30 of these blocks were 0-reward fair launch blocks * MINOR: Actual maximum coin supply is not 7 million as in the ANN, but rather 764K. However, the premine percentage is against the actual coin supply, so it's only a textual error. The percentage of supply premined is still correct Notes: verified max PoW supply 764,400 premine of 30,000 (~3.9% of max supply) Watermarks: uint64_t, pos, drm-like, devcoin Ty earlz, this makes more sense because rewards were too low for 7 mil it seemed. Ok so 700k coins sounds good to me. |

I have a first class degree and masters in computer science from a red brick university in England. Hardly a person that has a low IQ or a loser.
Businesses differentiate themselves by having a unique selling point and being better than the competition.
I was trying to find out the facts about the ClearingHouse specification so that we can use this as a pitch for new projects that are looking for a platform (not specifically Gems).
What are you doing to help the coin / community?
I might be wrong on some of this but people can correct me, I managed to finish High School in the USA at a school with metal detectors at the entrance so im no loser  OP RETURN: I think the OP RETURN is currently at 120 bytes Bitcoin has an OP RETURN of 40 bytes and that is not enough to use counterparty with OP RETURN therefore coutnerparty uses multisig on the Bitcoin Blockchain, this is also true for Dogeparty which is counterparty on the doge chain. Multisig makes more "bloat" then by using OP RETURN Notary: Is fully functional, cheap and easy to use and public. Speed: Faster than counterparty, maybe as fast or faster than dogeparty Cost: Every action is a lot cheaper than counterparty, but costs more than dogeparty. Decentral Exchange: Works, my subjective opinon based on use is that it is less buggy than counterparty or dogeparty DEX. Politics: The core devs of Bitcoin or Dogecoin might decide they dont like what the dev team of counterparty or dogeparty are doing and somehow make it more difficult for them to use the blockchain, Clearinghouse doesnt have this potential problem. Core devs of both bitcoin and dogecoin have in the past spoke in a negaitve way about blockchain spam, I think this was before dogeparty exsited but I can not confirm. Right now the other platforms that you could release tokens, shares, or lauch a decentral company on are: coutnerpary, clearinghouse, dogeparty, bitsharesX and maybe some others. no one cares, the people with real money do not care about all this. they care about how good the team is, your integrity, how hard you work, do you think logically or do you make mental errors, who do you know, do you have a good head on your shoulders with street smarts/common sense, how do you interact and play well with others, are you able to be inclusive, etc. that is one of the reason why XCP has been so successful, because they have many of these qualities. the people you should be talking to might not even know about counterparty, in fact they should not know about them. that is how you grow the market and SELL vision. not by doing feature by feature comparisons, and introducing an alternative to a client who may otherwise not even know or care that it exists. "hi sir my steak knife is better because it cuts faster".... "ok let me call them first"..."they told me that even though yours cuts fasters, theirs is more reliable and won't rust"... you lose However, this forum is for early adopters and people who are not always the best at marketing. The op on this thread alone is tbh horrible. No offense but it looks like an afterthought. I am a large holder of xch and would love to see some promotion of some sort both on this thread and outside it. We may not need to compare tech, but certainly there is a strong need for heavy marketing. |
