Counterparty will make a killing.

[spartak_t]

I expect it to pass $8-$10 mark in the next 2-3 months.

Anything more to add to this prediction?

[GridLocked]

Because some tweet told you so?

[kjadB]

Counterparty is still a highly respectable project, but probably long past a pump without 'tangible' new developments

[GridLocked]

Because some tweet told you so?

Maybe because that's their own tweet?

Even more reason to distrust a price prediction.  

[TravelsAsia]

Maybe he came across this CoinTelegraph article.

I respect the Counterparty project and the folks behind it, but there has been no really uplifting news from that camp for months now, no?

[shmadz]

Holy crap, I just checked, xcp already making a killing, over 0.004 and climbing.

No analysis, I just came here to party!  

I'm tempted to dump all over this rally, but I don't really have that much xcp in the grand scheme of things, so I'm always hesitant to sell my position of projects that I like.

(There are so few projects that I like    )

Counterparty is a great project which seems to actually have values. I don't think the price will get that high because the big whales have kept away from it. Hopefully I am wrong.

1. This is my own tweet.
2. It was made earlier this month.
3. I do not own a single XCP.
4. Can't say for sure, but Counterparty was never hyped and it is a valid project. At least in my views.

You do not understand technology:

Im waiting for Rootstock to see if it can replace ETH, but for now I would stay cautious with smart contracts stuff.

RootStock is technologically flawed, because Sidechains can't be secure. Review the following linked posts for the details:

CounterParty is technologically flawed, because Bitcoin's block chain can't secure what it doesn't validate. Review the following linked post for the details:

Someone please ask Andreas if he wants to continue promoting scams:

apparently this isn't something to argue. for if one of these token get to be on the market with high value. it wouldn't be scam anymore.

You think ETH is not a scam any more as the insiders allegedly continue to pump it using margin traded creation of demand out-of-thin-air so that at the end bag holders will be holding empty bags worth 0 and the insiders will have siphoned off all the BTC you all invested.

With sufficient ignorance of you speculators, our crypto ecosystem will become nothing but a criminal enterprise. Thank you.

Edit: another confirmation of my stance on CounterParty and RootStock:

Counterparty and RootStock are two smart-contract projects building on top of bitcoin this way. But, Counterparty bundles its state (how much the guest owes you, etc) into bitcoin transactions, which weren’t designed for this purpose.

This also limits Counterparty transactions to bitcoin’s 10-minute block time, rather than ethereum’s 15-second one. Meanwhile, RootStock is far behind ethereum in development, arguably falling further behind every day, and involves some technical challenges (how to reliably transfer coins between the bitcoin blockchain and RootStock blockchain) that don’t appear to be fully worked out yet.

In both cases, you’re now dependent on two separate networks and technologies: bitcoin, and Counterparty or RootStock.

XCP is not the only smart contract for bitcoin
rootstock and i think maidsafe

I explained a few posts above that XCP is a flawed.

RootStock doesn't have that same flaw, because it is its own side-chain and can verify every transaction. But side-chains have other problems and I expect them to be a clusterfuck.

You do not understand technology:

I do not understand why you are jumping on pretty much every thread with your 150 quotes? Do you need some help?

It is clear from my prior post that you need help understanding the technology of CounterParty is flawed.

I don't know why you don't appreciate the free education I give you.

[spartak_t]

I don't know why you don't appreciate the free education I give you.

Because I don't need it? Try to be positive from time to time, it won't hurt you.

That's ironic coming from a person who's promoting Failcoin. lol

I'm only joking. Counterparty looks good.

I am not promoting it, I am in fact one of it's leaders.

Counterparty is still a highly respectable project, but probably long past a pump without 'tangible' new developments

With regard to "tangible new developments" I think that was a valid view 6 months ago, but the project has been revitalized on several fronts. We have daily code commits on our github repos that outpaces most other crypto projects by a wide margin. In the last month, developments include:

* all the EVM work being done (almost live on testnet)... Faq at http://counterparty.io/docs/faq-smartcontracts/
* p2sh support added (https://github.com/CounterpartyXCP/counterparty-lib/pull/818)
* payment channels work (https://github.com/F483/picopayments) that will soon be merged in
* revamped docker based build system. Works on Linux, Windows and Mac OS. (http://counterparty.io/docs/federated_node/)
* numerous counterwallet updates (https://github.com/CounterpartyXCP/counterwallet/compare/1.7.0...master)
* revamped website (Chinese and Japanese translations in the works)
* Counterparty-lib test suite overhaul
* tons of bug fixes (eg https://github.com/CounterpartyXCP/counterparty-lib/commits/develop)

Feel free to join our slack and ask away/get involved, as well: http://slack.counterparty.io

"Valid project?
ok, i'll buy that. but... any facts?? new announcements? partnerships? nothing?

dont get me wrong, XCP seems a good project but you made a projection of the price so it must be based on something.

[m3rl1nbtc]

very little volume moves this one quite a bit both up and down. it will be interesting to keep an eye on it over the next few weeks as more news should affect the price, as previously mentioned.

Can't say I am any more interest in buying XCP now than I was before opening this thread. I don't like to post negative stuff but this is the most stupid thing I have seen at least this week.

Step one: write a tweet "X is going to Y".
Step two: post it here.


I think next time you should actually have something to say that lends credibility to a prediction of 400% increase in price. Then I would enjoy reading it and possibly invest if I agree. But I only own Bitcoin Factom and Ethereum now. And doing research on NEM.. so I'm very picky and prudent in my investing and only want to put money on things that accelerate crypto.
