ChromaWallet (colored coins): issue and trade private currencies/stocks/bonds/..

[killerstorm]

Win32 build: http://killerstorm.xen.prgmr.com/alex/ngccc-0.0.1-win32.zip

Experimental. p2ptrade seems to work now, but it isn't secure. (It doesn't check that we're paid before it signs the transaction.)

Instructions are same as for Linux version: ngccc-cli setval testnet true to configure it to use testnet, and then you can use ngccc-gui.

We'll make a better release a bit later...

Got it up and running. Here is a screenshot. Haven't had time to mess around with it yet.

Looks good! Keep up the good work killerstorm and team!

What is the dependency  for the windows  version.Should I install bitcoind and sip,pyqt4 etc.Anybody can give me a guide,thank you.

What is the dependency  for the windows  version.Should I install bitcoind and sip,pyqt4 etc.Anybody can give me a guide,thank you.

You need to have bitcoind or bitcoin-qt with enabled RPC running on the local computer. http://bitcoin.org/en/download

You need to create bitcoin.conf with rpcuser/rpcpassword (it should be put into %APPDATA%\Bitcoin), then run

Code:

bitcoin-qt -testnet -txindex -server

There are no other dependencies, it is all in one package. Run

Code:

ngccc-cli setval testnet true

to set it to testnet mode, then you can just run ngccc-gui.

However, I should note that sharing "asset definition" isn't very convenient now, maybe it's better to wait till we make a better version later this week.

I have the Windows version of Bitcoin-QT installed, which includes Bitcoind in there somewhere, I think. You'll need that and the files killerstorm posted.

Install Bitcoin-QT and then make a file entitled bitcoin.conf in C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin that contains

server=1
rpcuser=rpcuser
rpcpassword=make your own password

Change the bolded items to your PC username and a password of your choosing.

Then navigate to the Bitcoin-QT folder via commmand line, or shift right click>open command window here in the Bitcoin-QT folder, and then run Bitcoin-QT with the following flags

bitcoin-qt -testnet -txindex -reindex

This should launch the Bitcoin GUI in the green colored testnet mode. Wait until it finishes the reindex.

Then, via command line, navigate to the NGCCC directory that you downloaded and use the following command to configure ngccc to use the testnet

ngccc-cli setval testnet true

Now, you should be able to launch the ngccc GUI by typing

ngccc-gui

I'll be writing up a better guide later this evening, so if this doesn't work for you, stay tuned.

Oh crap, wallet.db which I used for testing got into zip file. So, basically, we all share same wallet. Please delete wallet.db file before starting, it will generate a new one.

[pplwjd]

It's very nice of you guys,Killerstorm and NuclearReactor.Thank you for your helps and I have built my windows version and I can see the NGCCC test client GUI. I am so excited.
I had some test bitcoins and I tried issuing some new assets but I don't know how can I get the new assets balance? And I received the followiing message,I don't know if it has any help.

It's a known bug, you need to restart the client to see it.

And I received the followiing message,I don't know if it has any help.

Hmm, haven't seen this one yet: when does it happen?

I'm not sure when does it happen.It doesn't always occur,I think it has nothing to do with my operation.

I have tried the P2P trade,I found I can only make deal with somebody  who offered the same amount and the same price. Can I buy some assets from others who sell lower price than my offered  and higher amount than mine?
Another question,what does atom and unit mean when issuing a asset . Where does the colored btc go and colored BTCs can be uncolored and used again?

In addition,I sent PM to you,pls check it. Thanks.

[killerstorm]

Nevermind, we already fixed it in code (it isn't yet in the build).

I have tried the P2P trade,I found I can only make deal with somebody  who offered the same amount and the same price.

Yes. Basically, we didn't bother with partial fills yet.

Can I buy some assets from others who sell lower price than my offered  and higher amount than mine?

Eventually.

Another question,what does atom and unit mean when issuing a asset .

That dialog is rather confusing, we'll change it in new version.

Basically, "atoms" is number of satoshi in one unit. "units" means how many units you want to issue, i.e. quantity of units.

Where does the colored btc go and colored BTCs can be uncolored and used again?

NGCCC just tracks which addresses are colored and which aren't. If you no longer need colored coins it could just sent them to uncolored address, but it isn't implemented yet.

[pplwjd]

You mean NGCCC will support Matchmaking Tradeoff eventually ?

I can understand 'units', but  what 'the number of satoshi in one unit' is used for ? It is only used for calculating BTC for issuing asset and then define the colored BTC?

Thank you for your patience.

[killerstorm]

Sorry, I'm not familiar with this concept, but I can say that this part is very flexible, so we can implement pretty much any matching strategy if there is a need for it.

I think I know why this happens... Well, next release will fix this and other problems.

[killerstorm]

New build is available: http://www.reddit.com/r/coloredcoin/comments/1t3uyy/colored_coins_ngccc_preview_build_v002/

It now goes to testnet mode at start (when wallet.db is created), running ngccc-cli setval testnet true is no longer needed.

I have the linux version installed and running.

I will install the windows version in a bit, and then test both of them out for a bit.

EDIT: Here is a picture of four clients running in linux.

NGCCC is renamed to ChromaWallet, new web site: http://chromawallet.com/

(It is not a new release of software.)

[NuclearReactor]

The new windows version seems to be working fine from my limited testing.

And look at these slick new icons in the linux version!

https://i.imgur.com/NPUyXRr.jpg

Just leave it up to me to complain about trivial things like icons, haha.

Working on updating those docs a bit.

[babybonobo]

Super cool...worked great with no problems!  Got two wallets up, issued assets and created bids and asks!  I am so happy and excited for this program!  Keep up the great work and let us know if there are certain areas you need testing!
