[IamNotSure]

Honestly, I'm quite disappointed with CP, right now this is no competition to a centralized exchange.

When trading with BTC, indeed. But if you tray XCP trading, you'll be impressed

We're aware of the difficulties with BTC-based trades. As stated earlier, BTC-based trading will be greatly improved over the next 2-4 weeks, due to our enhanced BTC auto-escrow system we'll be adding into Counterwallet.

Can you give me any pointers to why my (now two) open orders aren't being filled even though the bids are still there in the orderbook? One of them will expire in two days and I will lose the transaction fee for nothing. Next time I will use XCP for sure but now I don't want to give up on these transaction and lose 2xfees + conversion fees into XCP

No, that's a sell order that I placed to fill the buy order of the same amount in the orderbook. For a while it seemed like 3.73% of it would be filled but that got eventually cancelled too.

And a while ago I placed another order to fill the bid at 0.000191 but it's in the same situation

This is also in buy orders?

Edit
My sell order is there also. Why sell orders go to buy wall?

[delulo]

Can someone help me out? I am getting really frustrated with CP and it seems it's impossible to get any support via email or in the chatroom

[.....]

So now instead of getting the 0.01 BTC from my wallet, exactly 0.01 BTC worth of SWARMPRE have been sold and that is the balance of my CP BTC wallet (the transaction I sent however seems to have evaporated into thin air)

Whenever you do ANYTHING on CP, you pay a transaction fee that is non-refundable, you can think about the fee like the stamp that lets your XCP order ride in its bitcoin envelope on the bitcoin blockchain.  So the inability to cancel your order is because you lack the money for the stamp with which to submit your order to the blockchain. 

This means it is fairlye xpensive to do anything because the dust limit and miner fee puts the minimum size at fairly high.  This is why other chains are being developed, for lower cost easier trading.

Is there a a fee table or something?

And are there transactions/processes that cost nothing?

In other words: What costs how much? Is there a summary of this anywhere?

Counterwallet 1.5.0 PRE is live!

We're about half way through with 1.5.0. We decided to do a pre-release which includes a few new features, as well as several bug fixes.

New features:
* Easy wallet links: Now, you can create a link with your passphrase embedded in it (encrypted with AES, by a custom password you set). With this encrypted link, you simply paste it into your browser, enter your custom password, and you've logged into your wallet! Makes it much easier for frequent wallet users. To access this functionality, log into Counterwallet, and click the gear icon in the upper right. Then, enter a password of your choosing in the "Enter password" field.



* Integrated support: We've added the ability to create a support ticket right from inside counterwallet, and even add a screenshot that will allow our support team to better troubleshoot your problem. To see this form, click on the Page Help button on the Balances page, for instance, and then click on the "open a support ticket" link. Please do not actually create a support ticket unless you actually have a bug, as we get any tickets created from this dialog.



For the full list, see this link on github. To get the new interface, do a Shift-Refresh and log back in.

Apologies, that was a regression with the 1.5.0PRE released a few minutes ago that has just been fixed (try shift-refresh and logging in again).
(In other news, it's looking like we're about to start development of an automated test suite that we'll be running before releases)

Working again, so far A-ok.

Bookmarked, I am shocked that I haven't seen this thread before...

Xnova:

Has the message signing compatibility issue been fixed yet?

Thanks


EDIT: Ok. I see we have an open issue at https://github.com/CounterpartyXCP/counterwallet/issues/309#comments

[FFrost]

Anyone explain how exactly the faucet works? Don't I need a separate XCP address instead of my current one in my profile?

It is broken.  I also have sell orders at those prices.  The part that sucks is I have never received compensation for fees due to their errors, which I accept, and they still insist on charging fees while the system is going through debugging which I don't.  At least give us an explanation of why this problem is so hard to debug and what is going on.

Who are "they" who are charging you those fees?

You mean the testnet faucet?
I don't know what you mean by "your current one in your profile" (what profile?).
You need to use the testnet Counterwallet where you create a new wallet with "fake" XCP's that you get from the faucet.

XCP is a really second gen crypto.XCP is safe but slow... can we change that?

No explanation and the devs like xnova keep ignoring our messages. Instead, we get pompous announcements of new features.

You probably referred to my faucet at http://xcp.bfolder.com/ , right?

Yes, you can use the BTC address you have on your forum profile, but you need to be able to sign a message with it.
Put your user_id, and the signed message on the faucet web, and it will crosscheck with the BTC address on you forum profile.

Once you get the giveaway XCP, you may import it to the counterwallet later if you like.

(Reason for signing is to prevent people from using btc addresses from exchanges or shared web wallets, which they will never be able to transfer it out)

-------

Counterwallet used to be able to sign message compatible with bitcoind, but last time I checked they were incompatible. If the problem was fixed, you should be also be able to use Counterwallet address to claim directly on the faucet, and don't need to import it.
