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

[Anotheranonlol]

I am holding my XCP forever. Vote XCP at btc38.com, one of Chinese biggest exchanges.

XCP is ranking top 2 currently, need 35 more votes.

http://www.btc38.com/trade/vote_for_trade_en.html

+1, XCP/CNY trading pairs on btc38 would be great.

A major flaw is relying on their server software to generate the passwords in the first place and can't even generate your own passwords or truly control your own wallet as you mention in #2.

Do you mean this in the sense of "the server provides the code" or "the server generates the password for you"? I believe you can enter any combination out of 12 x 1626 words based on this wordlist: http://pastebin.com/9bZ1fvAU.

That's correct, not sure what this guy talking about. It's not a flaw and not reliant on server software, the mnemonics/password generation is handled client side. Counterwallet is Compatible with electrum seeds, of course you can pick your own from that list as you said. 12 word passphrase is better entropy than average user would input for sure.

blockscan is getting better

Counterwallet is Compatible with electrum seeds, ...

Electrum's wordlist contains 2048 words and the other one is also not a simple subset -- while not even looking at how the keys are derived: this is unfortunally not the case.

I don't think I remember that being the case before. But just checked electrum

Yes, you're right

This is great stuff.

Just found this interesting foldingcoin for protein folding scientific research using Counterparty protocol.

Yes, its a very interesting and worthy idea. To me, its these types of coins that should have value because their mining is actually accomplishing something (3D modeling of protein folding simulations)... along with the coins that have utility in and of themselves, like XCP, of course..

Maybe they can partner with some sort of field-related vendor. I would spend 10,000 folding coins to get a basic, personal genome analysis. That's a lot because I've been "folding" for about 2 weeks and I have 563 coins total.

I think this is worth doing, they've said they want to try to start adding quality coins rather than doing the voting thing and getting loads of just released crapcoins and scamcoins, so I think XCP would stand a very good chance of being added.

I hear the moolah.io thing have bad reputations lately

Any news from Bittrex ?

Just a thought, anyone working on a prediction market about global events, stock prices, or anything like that?

Hi there.

I am trying to use vennd and when i start it it fails. So I ran the configuartion tester and it says:

"

Code:

my_user@myserver:~$ groovy-2.3.6/bin/groovy vennd/ConfigurationTester.groovy
org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:

                                  ^

4 errors

"

I tried using 3 different versions of groovy but they all gave the same error.
I also checked the xcp and btc clients and connections, they all work fine as i have even issued a test asset with that wallet moments earlier.
I am using bitcoin and counterparty on testnet.

vennd is a key project for the counterparty ecosystem and so your help will be very appreciated.

Glad to see XCP achieved grate progress! My XCP form burning has been staying in my wallet more than 6 month. LOL!

I think we need a way for users to make their broadcast feeds public and accessible, without creating their own page:

To quote user Weex from http://forums.counterparty.co:

You're talking about a directory of broadcast feeds? That would be really cool. Each broadcasting entity could have a page listing all of their broadcast feeds, the individual broadcasts, their logo, a link to their website, etc. I actually think blockscan.com is the best candidate for adding this since they already have broadcast feeds.

So glad to hear someone is listening to my immature criticisms (inside joke).

Yes, there should be a way to have a complete and bet-able feed completely within Counterparty without relying on an external feed.  I am located in a jurisdiction where I think that running feeds would be construed as running a casino or some BS, and therefore I do not want to have to set up a website (which would be tied to my name in one form or another) in order to set up a feed.

I proposed a block hash lottery on github, where few would win a lot. I think this would take advantage of the true potential of XCP escrow.
