Hi Xnova,  one question and one suggestion.

question: When Multi-sig function will be finished?

suggestion: Is it possible to add message function on counterwallet?  i think it is and useful and needful function. After the buyer sending a message to the online shop owner , the owner can distinguish the money for which order.

Let's donate BTC to Counterparty / Counterwallet development (the button on counterwallet), and claim a powerful vps for crypto projects a year : http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/29x3gl/i_want_to_help_bitcoin_projects_so_im_giving_away/

+1

There's all ready an open chat, but it would be useful to send a private message too. One approach, of course, would be to implement a message system internally in counterwallet. Another way would be to specify recipient(s) of a Counterparty broadcast (this is not possible now, or is it?).

E.g. in the list of broadcasts I found this; "SEBUH Will be shipping out all miners in first batc". This broadcast could be sent to all holders of SEBUH, so when these open counterwallet next time they would see it. Because the blockchain is public, everyone else could see it too though, so privacy will still be zero unless a message can be encrypted somehow.

Possibility: May Counterparty Broadcast become the Bitcoin equivialent of Twitter?

Suggestion: leave enough BTC to cover at least 1 set of fees when a user gets a new asset.  It's a pretty poor experience to get an asset and find out that it can't really be transferred immediately.  Fees for 1 transfer will improve usability, and after it is used, a message could be displayed that further transfers will require depositing more BTC.

Will the protocol have a built in random number generator? It would also be possible to play rock paper scissors against the protocol itself...

Whom are you suggesting should leave the fee when a user gets a new asset? Or are you suggesting that a user should need to have twice the BTC dust  at his address in order to create an asset, so that he'll also be able to send it in another transaction?

Multisig support is mostly implemented now, but will require an in-depth security audit (which will be done by Peter Todd, most likely) before we push the code even into the develop branch, as it touches some pretty sensitive areas (e.g. validity checking of transaction inputs).

Regarding the messaging functionality, that's something we'd need to talk about internally. Generally, we are overall rather flexible with adding features if there is enough community support behind them. However, our scope for Counterparty is to be a financial platform. Messaging may be able to play a role in that, possibly, but we need to discuss it some more, and see a high amount of community demand for the feature...

Is there some way we can setup some sort of distributed voting system to assess the demand for particular features?

Any advice?

Hi Xnova,

Thanks for the quick reply.

For private messaging function, you'd better voting for it.

I think it is important, let me explain.

For now , ecommerce are so hot. There are a lot of shipping carts, such as magento, zencart, opencart, prestashop, shopify bigcommerce etc.

So many shipping carts, it is impossible to make xcp payment gateway for them.  even though the shop owner want to accept xcp, btc and other assets, but the shop owner don't have enough Technical strength to integration it.

if buyer send xcp to shop owner account directly, the shop owner can't distinguish the transation for which order. For example Client A send XCP, client B can tell shop owner that he send the xcp and let shop owner send goods to him.  

Shop owner can't distinguish who is the real sender.

If there have private  messaging function, the buyer can send shop owner a message, such as " my order id is #123".  thus the shop owner can easy to distinguish which orders are paid and which are not.

The shop owner don't need to add any script.  it is so easy.

Maybe some one say "we can use signed message”, signed the message and send it by email.  
But i think private message is better than sign message.

if there have more than 1000 online shops accept xcp or other xcp assets , counterparty will have a bright future.

Chrome auto log out and get message "server is updating". Maybe need only wait.

We had to implement a hotfix in counterpartyd on production. The counterwallet servers are now rebuilding on the blockchain. Should take about 30 minutes at the most before things are ready for login again.

How is this not already possible today via email, or twister? I'd rather not Counterparty have a bunch of arbitrary messaging, being a Financial platform, and those messages being on the blockchain itself. 

Two main issues:

1. The shop keeper could just as easily tell the people to email him their address to match the payments, if you took this approach. With email, it uses tools people already know, and is available to everyone, rather than only to people using a counterparty wallet with messaging support implemented
2. this approach is poor in the first place. We will have a merchant API soon where purchase support can be built right into shopping carts, to give a much more integrated approach. The overall experience will work like something like bitpay (e.g. via gyft, or some other service that uses it)

Messaging is very easy to implement in Counterparty. In fact, it's already possible: you just encrypt messages with the recipients public key before broadcasting them! It's just a question of UIs and our development priorities. Our primary goal is universal financial freedom.

With regard to voting for features: Absolutely! Of course, we can do this today the same way you did. We definitely are going to implement a protocol-level voting system though. (Voting systems get complicated quickly, however. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow%27s_impossibility_theorem.)

After that, we'll develop proof-of-stake code self-modification, so that users can vote trustlessly on magic numbers in the protocol (such as issuance fees). (Now that's a DAC!)

How to do deal with it?

Click the links to find out!  In short, it is a currency created by Let's Talk Bitcoin, a podcast run by Adam Levine which is long-running and successful (i.e., it has sponsors, i.e. people or companies who pay to have their advertisements placed in the podcasts).  People who contribute content to the podcast (on-air talent, behind the scenes/production members, etc.), and to the LetsTalkBitcoin ecosystem in general (forum members, etc.), are rewarded with LTBCoin for their contributions.  Let's Talk Bitcoin sponsors will be limited to ONLY being able to purchase advertising with LTBCoin.  In this way, a market is created for purchasers of LTBCoin.

E.g. let's say that an ad on the podcast costs 1000 LTBCoin.  Prior to the creation of LTBCoin, the cost for an ad on the podcast cost $500.  Somebody wanting to place an ad on the podcast will now have to purchase 1000 LTBCoin on the open market (which is basically the Counterparty DEX, although other exchanges could pick it up as well).  This creates a rough value of $0.50 per LTBCoin.

New LTBCoins will be distributed for several years, although after that distribution period, all coins will have been distributed and the LTBCoin economy will rely on recycled coins (sponsors send coins to Let's Talk Bitcoin to pay for ads, and Let's Talk Bitcoin distributes those coins to contributors).  Since LTBCoin lives entirely on Counterparty, there is no mining and essentially no cost to the LTBCoin creators or holders.  (Other than BTC transaction fees, of course.)

I believe that this is a fantastic idea, and that it could well see widespread adoption throughout the digital media universe.  Basically any site which has: A) Contributors and B) Advertisers can create their own coin and follow this model.

I was thinking the distributor.  I don't know the details, but when an asset is distributed the very first time, a user gets BTC dust: if the dust was bigger so it included a fee, a user would be able to immediately transfer the asset.

Hi All.

I wanted to share a post I wrote up called "How to Secure LTBcoin (or any Counterparty Asset) with an Offline Paper Wallet"

http://letstalkbitcoin.com/blog/post/secure-ltbcoin-paper-wallet


This post details the steps needed to backup a Counterparty Asset to a paper wallet.  The examples show LTBcoin, but the process applies to any Counterparty asset.
