Any reason why every time I've tried to log-in for the last 6-8 hours I've gotten 'No Counterparty servers available' error prompt?

From JahPowerBit on the other forum about an hour ago:

"Just restart daemons. Works now.
We are investigating why it's happen."

I have 8 orders (shows as 16 line items) showing in counterwallet. There should only one. First 7 were from Firefox which showed no confirmation when order was placed, 8th was from Chrome, which showed a popup window for confirmation when the order was placed. Will the first order fill and the rest just go away? Using pop-ups for confirmation is a REALLY bad idea - should go to a confirmation page instead. Is there a way to cancel the extra orders?

I'm also showing a lower BTC balance, 1.8583 instead of the 2.02 BTC I started with - has it been eaten away by all these orders? Does this mean all of 8 orders will fail because the BTC balance is no longer at 2? When I placed the order, it said the total cost was 2.02 BTC, now I'm down to 1.8583 BTC with no order filled.

Considering you were ordering my asset I'll answer this for you:

Each transaction takes a BTC fee. That is 0.02, hence the lower balance.

They will expire and you will get that back in a couple more blocks, which is a pain for both of us but you can re-do it.

I've sent another .15 BTC to bring the BTC balance up, guess I should have read this first. I may need to have some extra dust anyway. We'll see how it goes. Thanks for the reply. The confirmation pop-up has to go. I service computers and see how regular people use them. This will never fly for the average user in its current state.

Counterwallet seems to log out every time I minimize or hide the window. Is this normal? I have to have it up and covering the screen as long as a transaction is pending?

I completed 1 transaction by depositing an extra .15 BTC and paying. Will the other 7 eventually time out, cancel, and refund the transaction fee to my BTC balance? If so, do I need to leave counterwallet visible and stay logged in for the refunds to process?

I pushed 1 of the 8 orders through by adding BTC to my balance and paying it off. The other 7 have been promoted to 14 open orders expiring in about 11 days with a cancel option. Should I cancel to get the fee refunded or is it better to let them expire?

I've created a bug report for this as a GitHub issue. Thanks for bringing this to our attention (the unreliability of the confirmation pop-up).

You should probably cancel your open orders, yes. The fees can't be refunded, however.

That's not the intended behavior, no. This should be fixed soon, however.

So I noticed. I cancelled them, but I'm short 0.1451838 BTC, original deposit 2.02 BTC + .15 BTC extra - 2.02 filled order - 0.0048162 final BTC balance after 7 orders cancelled. Is there someone who can issue a refund of the missing BTC. That's about $64 USD at current prices. Where do the fees go?

[MrWDunne]

This should definitely be refunded as it is a bug in the software, at least partially.

I received a nice PM from Counterwallet. They are very helpful and willing to refund the BTC. I'm really happy to find it didn't disappear into a black hole. The counterwallet looks like it will evolve into a great exchange platform. Other than the confirmation glitch, I was able to figure it out intuitively in about 15 minutes. It'll be fun exploring the asset types.

The money that you spent did disappear into a black hole (it was sent to random Bitcoin miners). We reimbursed you out of pocket.

Ouch, thanks! I knew the send fee goes to miners, about .00015 BTC total in Mastercoin with the three separate destinations. You're saying the 1% transaction fee on orders goes to BTC miners as well? This seems really high.

It's only when you buy something with BTC directly. The 1% fee is also only a temporary default.

Can somebody explain how betting works or point me out where to read. Let's say I would like to bet on the increase of BTC/USD price using porquepine feed, so I create a bet saying btc price will be higher than X at the end of block N and the valid bet transactions have to be submitted before block M. The winner side takes all from the losing side, each participant will be paid out proportionally to his wager / all winner side wager. Is this how it works ?
