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

[Spratan]

Mastercoin was at 180 $, in the top 3, if I remember, with less potential

[jl777]

It seems that my selection of poloniex to pester to list XCP and getting XCP right next to mastercoin on coinmarketcap all happened. It sure didnt seem like it was easy to add XCP, and my guess is that most other exchanges wouldnt have stuck it out through all the issues, nor would they have been able to get it working as fast. Tristan is the best!!

Now we steal mastercoin's thunder before they are able to get any real world release out. The cat is out of the bag and now everybody that didnt know about counterparty will immediately compare working software with almost software.

I usually dont beg for tips, but I think I deserve one in this case. Feel free to express your euphoria!

I think Poloniex should add Mastercoin to their exchange, it is after all similar to XCP and should enable Mastercoin users to sell their overpriced coin and buy the undervalued and functional XCP instead. Some of them I am sure would jump at the opportunity. Unlike regular investors, they are already converted to the metacoins and DEX based on the promises of Mastercoin for many months past. It's also great business for Poloniex. Everybody wins.

Hmmmm I cant get this running.

I cloned counterpartyd_build, then installed the python file, then reindexed bitcoin qt. Seems to start with server command and is catching up blocks.

However sending doesnt work:

Code:

counterpartyd send --source=address1 --destination=address2 --quantity=100 --asset=XCP

It says:

Code:

Transaction (unsigned): 
"HUGE NUMBER!"
Confirm? (y/N) y
Transaction aborted.

So why is transaction aborted? I have sufficient XCP on address1 and sufficient BTC to pay the fee. Also I have set up bitcoin.conf and counterpartyd.conf correctly...

Some Ideas whats wrong here?

Any hints on that plz? Developers?
No matter what I enter, always says

Code:

Transaction aborted.

Hi all,

I just installed the counterparty deamon for windows x64, using the installer. However, when I try to run it using


 "C:\Program Files\counterpartyd\counterpartyd.exe" --log-file=-


an error: "Too few arguments" occurs.

Any insights?

Upvote guys (not my post this time)

Too many people downvoting that much be associated with Mastercoin lol

[roede94105]

When I think I missed the burn period by 2 hours (didn't discover the XCP before), and I paid 2 BTC for 300XCP. It's still a great deal, but if I had 2000 right now man.. ^^

Could anyone please give me some hints for the following error?

Successfully set up counterpartyd.conf and bitcoin.conf in the %USER%\Appdata\Roaming\... Folders?

Seems to me that your counterpartyd cannot connect to bitcoind via RPC...

Poloniex is great but :

An XCP transfer costs 0.0002172 BTC at the moment (I don't know in the future if this will change) Even at a rate of 0.01BTC/XCP (to balance the risk of holding XCP) transfers should cost around 0.02 XCP to be fair.

I don't know about the reason why it's so high but this issue should be addressed (don't let another exchange steal your market share, you have the first mover advantage...)

counterpartyd.conf

'counterpartyd market' command doesn't work in 5.1 develop branch?

I get an 'invalid choice: 'market' error message.

How do I view all current market orders now?

For now you should use Blockscan.com, or similar.

To view pending orders awaiting BTC payment from one of your addresses, use the pending command.

I have a problem sending XCP from one address to another. I'm using the latest counterpartyd (v5.0) and database is up to date.

Here's the error I get:

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./counterpartyd.py", line 503, in <module>
    print(unsigned_tx_hex) if args.unsigned else json_print(bitcoin.transmit(unsigned_tx_hex))
  File "/Users/Max/counterpartyd/lib/bitcoin.py", line 404, in transmit
    return rpc('sendrawtransaction', [signed_tx_hex])
  File "/Users/Max/counterpartyd/lib/bitcoin.py", line 103, in rpc
    raise exceptions.BitcoindError('{}'.format(response_json['error']))
lib.exceptions.BitcoindError: {'code': -22, 'message': 'TX rejected'}

I consolidated XCP holdings of around 30 addresses in one address and now I'm trying to send the complete balance of this address to another one.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

You probably just need to wait for transaction confirmations. Tell me if this issue doesn't resolve itself.

I don't know the answer myself.

Try  "C:\Program Files\counterpartyd\counterpartyd.exe" wallet or other command like send, order, etc.

Still trying to figure out how to send XCP...
Any Idea what could cause the transaction to abort?

[devphp]

Funny how all the trading of the supposedly decentralized XCP currency migrated to centralized poloniex exchange. Old habits die hard kind of thing
