Just checked out to xcpfeed. Is it having a wallet service separating from the main counterwallet that works with on-site xcpfeed betting or something ? The wallet did not work at the time I tried. (unable to create new wallet)

Yes there is a separate wallet. Note the login is the same as for Counterwallet - but you are by no means required to use it, just pasting a wallet public address (that has had at least 1 sent transaction) will produce a raw transaction which can be signed in any Bitcoin wallet.

As for your wallet not working - trying it now and works fine for me? Can you be any more specific? What have you done and what exactly happened?

Well, I clicked the green button to "Create New Wallet" and it generated a passphrase which I copied over to the Passphrase text box. Then what ? The "Wallet Open" blue button was still grey.

My bad, one tries to introduce improvements (and I think it is) but unfortunately it is also wont to cause some unintended difficulties. Note:

In an effort to encourage good security practices the passphrase login cannot be pasted but must be typed word by word.

wow ! that's great innovation, but maybe it should try to detect / prevent "copy over", as it is what we're used to from counterwalelt.

I'm somewhat worried that encourages people to do the next "logical" step in that chain, which is copy over to Desktop/password.txt, ctrl+v, click save.

Hi guys, we've put a preview of the upcoming version (1.4.0) on https://cw03.counterwallet.co/ ... feel free to log in and give it a spin. Please report any bugs you find on the forums, on the skype chat, or to our github bug tracker.

Very good 

I gave it a try. Here are my notes:

1. First page with twelve "Top pairs", "Select another pair" and "All pairs" is very intuitive and quick.

2. On the second page I'd personally prefer to move "Price history" down below orders, but most users may prefer it the way it is (?).

3. The order forms look good and are intuitive.

4. Bug? When I chose a new pair from "Top pair" the amount and total were not reset.

5. Bug? "Lowest ask price" under "Buy [TOKEN]" - isn't the the highest bid price shown? And vice versa on the sell form.

6. I like the idea of the price for market order pre-filled in when the form loads, and that I only need to click on my balance in bold orange to fill in the rest.

7. I'd like the price to be filled in in both order fields when clicking on a price in the order book. E.g. I click on the highest buy order price, and it means either that I want to sell at market price or buy at a limit.

8. Possibility: When I click on highest buy price, the filled in price in the buy-form could be this price plus one tick. It makes sense when making a limit order to go higher than the current highest bid. However, this may confuse some users, so I recommend sticking with the description in #7.

Try directly going to https://cw03.counterwallet.co/ which has the new exchange interface (see above post).

I am not sure if the pass phrase copying issue is a bug or something that is permanant, but If I can't copy over my 12 word passphrase on Counterwallet.co, that is a deal breaker for me. I don't want to use an offline wallet, and there is no way I am going to retype 12 words just to login each time.

Copy and paste into the passphrase window should work. If it's not working for you, it's a bug. What browser are you using?

Also, we are adding a feature into the next release that allows you to produce a link with your (AES) encrypted passphrase attached to it, such as:

http://counterwallet.co/#U2FsdGVkX18jgB3A2XqnaBHpelqd+rVUE/9FHE7cHkCP3gpNXOxzhM/FDNKclYAdNcSLfKPKvi+vEx/yjhWVVQ==

The encrypted passphrase is never sent to the server (since it comes after the '#' in the URL). Instead, Counterwallet will display a dialog where you enter a simplier password (which you will set, and which will be used to decrypt the passphrase itself). This will make logging in as easy as pasting in your special login URL (or using a bookmark), and then typing in a shorter, secondary password that you set yourself. However, you'll still get the full security of the 12 word passphrase, and it won't force us to hold any extra data server side, AND, if someone saw your URL, they wouldn't be able to access your wallet without knowing your custom password.

More info on this: https://github.com/CounterpartyXCP/counterwallet/issues/291
(the above link includes a demo of it at carbonwallet.com, where we got the idea from)

I have no idea if it works or not, somebody posted earlier that it did not work, I assume in the test version.

Anyone who is having this issue should file a bug report, and we'll get it fixed. Maybe it is an issue on one or two more browsers...

There were some issues reported on the mobile android browser, for instance. We haven't had time to add full support for that, but things seem to work alright on Chrome for Android.

Are you referring to the wallet at xcpfeeds.info? You can't copy and paste your 12 words as one string there.

This is at xcpfeeds.info, not Counterwallet.

I'm trying to build 'native' counterwallet for mac, using node-webkit. (I like native style app icon sitting in taskbar looks sexier and more functional)



 It works fine from remote URL but trying to use assets served locally gives a problem on login (generation of seed is fine) -- it basically just stays at this page
Do the devs know how to build counterparty into small webapp, will some native build ever be possible/released? I'm not a programmer whatsoever, possibly it's a few minutes job.

Thank you for this great feedback.

2. I think yes.
4. fixed
5. I can not reproduce. Maybe orders overlap: I put a filter to fix it.
7. done
8. I agree, this may confuse users.

You know it's a good thing when people start forking your work.  It has taken a while, but now random people are simply cloning Counterparty and throwing a new name on it.  This happened first with Bitcoin, then with Peercoin (copying POS mechanism), most recently with Darkcoin (copying anonymity features).  Kind of surprising that it's taken so long to clone Counterparty, and I expect that there will soon be a lot more clones (probably every "major" altcoin built on the Bitcoin codebase will have its own native Counterparty clone before long.)

For those who haven't seen it already, here's Viacoin, which is a new Scrypt blockchain with 24-second blocks and Counterparty forked on top under the name "ClearingHouse".  Basically, Viacoin's sole purpose is to provide a base for ClearingHouse.
