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

Hi, when issuance an asset  I find a error:  

 raise exceptions.RPCError('{}'.format(response_json['error']))lib.exceptions.RPCError: {'message': 'Server error', 'code': -32000, 'data': {'message': "'address'", 'args': ['address'], 'type': 'KeyError'}}

what happened to my address???my command is "counterpartyd issuance --source=1Ej2******b --asset=****--quantity=10000000 --divisible --description=""

need help. thanks

Someone else just showed me a similar error. Which branch are you using? Are you on the develop branch?

Looks like the error involves the communication with bitcoind

I don't think so, it looks normal about communication with bitcoind ,and the "balance" function is OK, but the other functions like "send"  "issuance" always shows the error as above, I really don't know about the problem of my btc "address" ,in which address  there are a bit  btc and xcp both.
need help.

An announcement: I will not be accepting payment for my role at Counterparty. I continue to work full time at the direction of the core development team and will do everything I can to ensure that we succeed.

Thank your hard work! I am sure we will make great success.

I know you might have tried this, but I would recommend downgrading to the latest version of Counterparty which is v6.3 or the master branch.

Try that with your issuance commands and then let us know what happened to you.

IMHO, but I don't perceive an "anti-marketing sentiment". More like being conservative right now to stay behind the noise of Mtgox and Auroracoin and whatever new IPO coin of the week. Once the new website design goes up, a broader community is formed, the web wallet goes up, we get the security review done, and the GUI is improved, then absolutely go all out.

Can someone explain what the relevance is of leverage in cryptocurrency in general and in bets in counteparty, and how is a feed tied to the block chain to determine the outcome of a bet ?

With regards to Counterparty, leverage will enable users to make a complex bet or CFD (contract for financial difference). As an example, you could go long on bitcoin by broadcasting a bet that gives you $5 in "winnings" for every $1 in upward price movement. By creating a bet like this you are able to leverage your position in bitcoin, or, you could hedge your exposure to bitcoin by taking the opposite side of a similar bet.

Hmm. I can't seem to duplicate this error. (Though there is a space missing from between the asset and quantity arguments.)

well xcp offers function despite from send doesn't it? if these functions offer value for the cryptoworld why shouldn't the prices rise? this argument holds true for maybe 4-5 altcoins, xcp is definetely one of them.

Yes, there are only about 4 to 5 second coins that bringing some innovation to the table (out of field of 150) and XCP is definitely a strong contender in that space.

Its much like what coin markets will later adopt, open source non hype coin what have show strong development potential already in first few month or some of others hype coin what i think have really strong marketing campaigns later

I'm not a fan of the anti-marketing sentiment that I've seen in this thread over and over.

Aggressively marketing, pushing for listings on exchanges, reddit campaigns, media involvement will grow the community, increase trading volume, increase XCP price, and attract asset issuers to the platform.

Nobody cares how technically advanced or well developed a crypto is if no one is trading it or using it.

I agree with some of the things you say, but I have a couple counterpoints.

Is it fair or wise to have Counterparty listed on other exchanges after the recent issue we experienced? While new exchanges will pump up trading volume and get the Counterparty project out to more potential users, it is a risk for the project and our potential partners. The core development team has retained two of the top ten people in the world to independently audit the Counterparty codebase. Lets wait for that to progress a bit and protect the project as well as our future partners by being patient and improving the codebase before pursuing mass adoption.

I'm not sure what a Reddit campaign is. Are you referring to a paid advertising campaign or simply making Counterparty posts in various subreddits? I don't see a paid marketing campaign as being a positive addition to current efforts at this time. If there are posts that relate to Counterparty on Reddit, all of us should be answering questions and addressing concerns there and anywhere else we can. Spamming links to Counterparty.co and this thread will probably not have the desired result and it's something I will personally avoid.

More media involvement would be great. I assume that the security audits will be interesting to a number of news outlets. There are other things in the pipeline that are also interesting, such as Counterwallet. If anyone has contacts with digital currency media, please let me know. We are, of course, reaching out to media on our own and I am not implying that we are simply waiting around hoping something happens.

----------

Some additional thoughts that I have regarding moving Counterparty forward.

Moving project strategy and technical discussions to the Counterparty forums and using this thread to address questions from people who are new to Counterparty would be helpful. Do you think your post will encourage new users to buy XCP? People come to this thread looking for information most likely. I don't think they care about either of our views on project marketing tactics or a discussion on something very technically related. Not to say either of these things are unimportant, just that this is not the place for it.

New users probably want to know simple things and to have simple questions answered by a polite and efficient community. Growing the community starts right here in this thread. Forwarding the project and working collaboratively on Counterparty should be done at Counterparty.co so that we can keep our most valuable and visible marketing asset as clean and as welcoming as possible.

Donations of time and money are beneficial.

POLL: How to Deal with Stolen BTC on Poloniex

Question:    Preferred Method of Recovering Funds

• Pay back over time with exchange fees   - 74 (36.6%)
• Sell shares of Poloniex, dividends paid from exchange fees   - 113 (55.9%)
• #1, Plus Return all balances and tax BTC withdrawals by percentage of funds still missing   - 15 (7.4%)

let it be XCP

[kdrop22]

Just a note: due to the Poloniex BTC hack (not related to XCP), most buyers have withdrawn their BTC from exchange. So, trading will be down for another week or two, so don't panic exercise patience and take a long term view.

This is why I want to use the DEX. I just wish we had a GUI for it. Is there any estimate for when we can expect the GUI for the DEX to be ready?

[halfcab123]

I was thinking maybe it would be helpful, XNOVA, that the web wallet implementations be customizable and that we can possibly purchase subdomains, or something of the like, to allow shareholders to have an asset specific UX.

[halfcab123]

I found it humorous, on the GITHUB docs, that as an example, the value of 1 XCP = 2 BTC  

Order

An ‘order’ is an offer to give a particular quantity of a particular asset and get some quantity of some other asset in return. No distinction is drawn between a ‘buy order’ and a ‘sell order’. The assets being given are escrowed away immediately upon the order being parsed. That is, if someone wants to give 1 XCP for 2 BTC, then as soon as he publishes that order, his balance of XCP is reduced by one.

i suggest add a appraise Options in Wallet or other place
for the company who use XCP IPO,then people can see this company or people Whether Honesty

[halfcab123]

So is there any difference at all between XCP and any other user created asset ? And if not, then what does that mean for the value of XCP ?

Someday we will look back and laugh even more when 1 XCP really equals 10 BTC. And all the CAKE will be gone.

They probably not going to support XCP, but what's the strategy behind this ?

Making sure people use their crap and give them exposure. You really had to ask the question?

[Matt Y]

Only XCP can be used for making bets, paying betting fees, paying asset issuance fees, and calling back an asset.

The biggest use case will be bets, both simple Win/Loss bets and contracts for difference. XCP is the only asset that can facilitate bets is because no other assets can be escrowed and distributed by the Counterparty protocol.

I think Omniwallet can definitely host XCP and benefit both communities. This is open source software and I would definitely recommend that the Counterparty devs reach out to Mastercoin and offer to have XCP hosted on their wallet.

The benefits to both parties is a bigger slice of a bigger pie.
