[ANN][XCP] Counterparty - Pioneering Peer-to-Peer Finance - Official Thread

[schwillyshill]

I have set up an XCP buy/sell thread here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=445740.new#new

And here is the corresponding Google Doc order book which I will keep updated as quickly as I can:

Why not use counterparty? This makes no sense.

Why not use counterparty? This makes no sense.

Because the counterparty exchange is command line based and requires download of the blockchain. It is easier for a newbie, to just confirm the transaction using www.blockscan.com.

Ok, xcp market price is established at .01 btc

Sorry dude, you can buy right now at 0.0013 BTC/XCP.

2248.0       |    XCP     |     3.0      |    BTC    |         0.0013         |   BTC/XCP    | 0.001  |     44    | aff5a8d5...311b7e46

Why not use counterparty? This makes no sense.

For vast majority of people, they dont have counterparty or they are not able to run counterparty
They just want to buy it on an exchange
If current market price within counterparty is .013, then as soon as there is external exchange it will go to .02 btc and above

Wait you are saying 750 xcp per btc is available inside counterparty?
Does it run on mac notebook?

I am getting another error in the "market". What anyone else?

There's a partial fix in the master branch now. I don't have a Windows computer, however, so it's pretty much untested. Let me know if it works!

No, sorry PhantomPhreak. It is not working. Here is the error message:

I guess that your best bet is to use an old version for now. xnova usually handles the Windows support, and he should be able to fix the issue soon.

I've reverted that commit, of course.

Ok, No problem. I can wait Thanks for the fast help.

I am rebuilding my windows environment so I can try to reproduce this.  I suspect this is another unicode handling issue (cmd.exe has issues handling unicode).

At the dos prompt, try running the "powershell" command, and then launching counterpartyd. See if that fixes it.

Wait you are saying 750 xcp per btc is available inside counterparty?
Does it run on mac notebook?

No mac support yet for counterpartyd, although the web wallet under development will obviously work with anything.

How much xcp is available at 750 per btc price? Would it be possible to do a manual transaction for it?

It is. I put back in the Unicode ellipses. We probably should wrap the logger and print() with something that converts to another encoding. (Removing the ellipses isn't a solution, because broadcasts include arbitrary UTF-8 strings.)

Congrats to the developers and everyone that took the leap and burned their BTCs.

We need a Logo design competition as well as some work on marketing, etc.   

This looks good.

+1, from a designer.

The arrow motif is one that I think we should stick to.

So it looks like even though I set the betting fee for my Super Bowl feed to 0, I still received 0.0001086 BTC from jimhsu's bet transaction.

Is this supposed to happen?

Transaction is here:

Seahawks win! (though by 2nd quarter that was kind of obvious). Can you do the broadcast BiggestFish?

Agreed.
The design is good, but the implementation is amateurish.
A more advanced designer should be able to update this logo.

[xnova]

Phantom and I have worked through the windows unicode issues and should have a fix (hopefully). I have part of it in develop (https://github.com/PhantomPhreak/counterpartyd/commit/bdd77c0148110f7c56baf58af919844dacd7716f). He'll be pushing it to master here shortly, along with additional changes.

When you say the "burn is over"does that mean XCP "mining" is over?

If not then what does it mean


Thanks
