Niche or not, there has to be someone willing to fill it. That's why Symbiont was such an asset.

The takeaway should be that Symbiont has a lot more resources than Counterparty has alone, so we'll be working on products that are orthogonal to Counterparty *as well*. (We'll also have more resources than ever dedicated to Counterparty itself.)
Are you speaking from the perspective of Counterparty or Symbiont? If the former, you're saying that the Counterparty dev group will be working (in part) on products orthogonal to Counterparty? If the latter, is Symbiont currently working on any product that incorporates Counterparty? When I wrote 'we', I meant 'Symbiont'; Symbiont is doing a lot with Counterparty. |

We would love to know any more about that. Anything at all. |

Update: We will use Counterparty for everything it's good for, when our clients want a solution that requires something like Counterparty and regulations permit it.
Reaction: FML, it's over. Oh, and can we have more information, please, even though you just updated us.
I don't even know what to say.

Previously we thought we knew of a Counterparty project which Symbiont was working on. Now we know that we don't. Also your first sentence (sarcastic because that isn't new information) and your second sentence (sarcastic because we are being greedy for *more* new information) are in complete disagreement with each other. |

It's like we're reading two different things. Best luck to you, I don't have the will to repeat things to try to make you see what's clearly written in the update. Sell your XCP quick, I guess.

Symbiont is funding Counterparty development and they are going to be using Counterparty where the usecases are appropriate. Doesn't really change the innate worth of the platform either. It works.

That's not news. We did get some news this morning though. |

Is there a rough timescale for when CP will implement Pythereum smart contracts?

I am speechless. Thanks for the cheap XCP. Dump on what appears to be a perfectly nice community update. Again, speechless but I won't look a gift horse in the mouth.

What would be a typical use case for counterparty (xcp) and what would be a typical use case for a separate (private) counterparty technology based chain? I mean a specific one... not an abstract description, if you would like to provide that. |

My guess would be months as they want to wait for a couple formal security audits. |

I agree. It's a great time to shake weak hands though. With the recent BTC drop, a lot of people are on edge. |

It seems like people were so badly abused by shit coins that they are living in an alternate reality when looking at a real project.

I would like to thank the Counterparty Foundation for the update. If you simply look at it from a Counterparty Protocol perspective - it was just a positive announcement that a serious company like Symbiont will use Counterparty as appropriate. Open-source projects can benefit hugely from the support and resources of a well established company in their domain.
The Counterparty Protocol remains as a maturing project that can be used by anyone to build additional functionality. If you are really concerned about the fiat denominated value of XCP you can build something to provide more utility to XCP.
Smart Contracts are coming.

I understand right like now XCP is in same place than every other similiar projects, anyone not really use it?  What we are waiting now? Smart contracts where everyone have look, wait and hype other projects? Some of that have even bitcoin core devs push it forward and keep peoples know it is what they want? This time there is zero number of projects what don't waiting other projects smart contracts instead of have even testing XCP smart contracts in test net? So, so far I don't see really reason to worry before first side chains project are out and everyone start use their smart contracts. Or that is my hope I really don't understand so much about this all systems Thanks for devs to keep community to know what you are doing so often. Sometimes some word out can be nice from you also, we all can't read githupreposwhatevertootechinformation. I know there have also Counterparty Foundation updates but still it is nice if you write something sometimes |
