oh, I've no idea about how that is coded. All I know is Counterparty allows not only asset/XCP trading, but also asset/asset trading.

Correct. Besides being easier, it's also cheaper to trade on the DEx with XCP if I recall correctly.

What if the core devs shorten the OP_RETURN again?


OP_RETURN is a clean solution and Counterparty would like to use it for that reason. It is not required.

Counterparty escrows tokens immediately when an order is placed. Since it cannot escrow bitcoin, the BTCPay transaction is required and Counterwallet takes care of BTCPay as long as you keep it open while your BTC-selling trades are live. Therefore it doesn't take more manual work but adds some uncertainty to a trade as it's not very clear if/when your order will be matched.

Token to token trades are final as soon as orders are matched so would be better if trading from XXXX to YYYY where the XXXX/YYYY pair doesn't have as much liquidity as either the XXXX/XCP or YYYY/XCP pairs and time is of the essence.

2. It's going to be built on Counterparty and as part of the Counterparty platform.

On Counterparty network or on Counterparty code?

On the Counterparty network. Not a fork. As much a part of Counterparty as possible.

Is there a link to words of Patrick Byrne regaring this issue? People that know how business is done won't believe that a CEO agrees to lose even a small part of the control they have. For XCP holders it may mean only 2 things:

1. Patrick will buy 99% of all XCP to remove even a small chance that other XCP holders could manipulate the market.
2. XCP won't affect Medici at all and hence will be unusable here, more likely trades will be done directly in BTC and in the best case XCP will be used to pay transaction fee (subject to 7 tx/sec limit).

Phantom addressed this earlier in the thread. Search the last few pages or so and you'll find it.

1. Wouldn't he need to do the same for dollars then?
2. It's easier to use XCP on the DEx. Transaction fees on the Bitcoin network cannot be paid in XCP.

Regarding the first point, Overstock buying 99% of XCP, or at least a very good stake :

1/ Why wouldn't Patrick Byrne buy every XCP possible, especially weeks before Medici is released, or before a new issuance. Others companies are planned, he will be the first to know, and the more documented.
Did you notice that every XCP under 0.0050 have been bought last weeks ? I can't see any rational argument against Overstock accumulating XCP.

2/ It is not the same as buying dollars. XCP supply is limited and deflationary, on contrary of Dollar. BTC comparing to XCP is a better comparison, and obviously, it was right to buy BTC in the earlier stages.

3/ He said he would create a multi-billion company, as big as Alibaba. As somebody wrote, with this kind of ambition, I would hazard nothing.

The real hurdle is that liquidity is low, so buying a minor stake could cost a huge amount.
Furthermore, the only (honnest) way to buy at cheapest prices under the radar, is to release no significant news for weeks.

Price speculation ... Interesting:
http://www.cryptocoincharts.info/pair/xcp/btc/poloniex/alltime
http://www.cryptocoincharts.info/pair/xcp/btc/bter/alltime
Did it start on Poloniex in March or was it traded somewhere else before?

So XCP hasn't had a single rally yet?

there is a bounty for about 1 BTC to translate counterwallet into chinese (was 1 btc but seems like the bounty software converts everything into USD which I am talking to them about)

One good thing that will come out of this that BTC cartel will realize that XCP is actually enhancing its usability. We will have less of Lucas Jr. types trying to police the transactions.

Not only the Bitcoin developers, but the whole community will soon start to realize and understand the value, the possibilities and the flexibility of the Counterparty financial tools network.
Besides- Counterwallet with its built-in extras (p2p betting and exchanges) is probably the most user friendly and secure crypto wallet on the market.
Simply said, Counterparty will get very popular. It only needs some additional advertisement to get there quicker.

Actually Eligius (Luke Jr pool) is the first to process OP_RETURN 80 bytes transactions.

Is that already in place?  From what I understand that those changes would take a while to be implemented by Eligus

More info regarding off-chain -> on-chain part would be welcome. Ripple works good enough without a blockchain, so the solution looks feasible. How often is it planned to unload the data to XCP? Will Overstock be the only party controlling the servers? What TPS rate is planned in the beginning? A lot of questions, more tech info regarding the architecture would help a lot.

[00:30:38] Coinstructors: yes like secureae
[00:30:40 | Edited 00:30:56] Ruben Alexander (Bitcoin Magazine): I am only posting that link in terms of the "insider trading argument".  I have heard that article isn't accurate.

no. not a fork.
[00:31:54] Jonathan Briasco: Right, definitely no fork. I'm in direct contact with Robby, Adam, and Evan; I can say that qualitatively
[00:31:56] Coinstructors: as they sed 10 ins blockchain for assets is not going to work

[00:35:10] Coinstructors: will be big vvolumes of tradng  per secnd
[00:35:27] Jonathan Briasco: If you'd like, please feel free to give them my email address and I'll be more than happy to answer their questions: jonathanb@counterparty.io
[00:36:11] Coinstructors: you can anser my to my qeustions as i handle the technical side
[00:36:29] Coinstructors: we can do a conference call later
[00:37:28] Nick Rathman: not every single transaction needs to be on the blockchain. if its just a platform they are building, most of the trades etc. could happen locally, and then push out to the blockchain periodically or something, idk
[00:38:08] Jonathan Briasco: Nick: Exactly, I think we'll see a few services aimed at the finance sector that offer off-chain trading, the results of which then get pushed out in a given block
[00:38:15] Xavier  Hawk: just chiming in, not affiliated with CP, @coinstructors.....The Blockchain is great as a time stamping tool. Trades can be done securely off blockchain...and recorded on chain. there are numerous ways to go about it
[00:38:26] Coinstructors: therefore you need a centralised chin to do that
[00:38:44] Xavier  Hawk: or Bitcoin
[00:38:55] Xavier  Hawk: and its not centralized
[00:39:10] Coinstructors: any latency
[00:39:15] Coinstructors: is not good
[00:39:17] Jonathan Briasco: One major advantage to Counterparty, I think, is that it makes HFT almost impossible, at least on the main chain
[00:39:53] Coinstructors: can cp handle 25 TPS
[00:39:56] Xavier  Hawk: Transactions can be done in 1000ths of a sec off chain, and then ledgered on chain
[00:40:34] Xavier  Hawk: either way...thats me chiming in. hope it helps. cheers
[00:40:52] Coinstructors: bit therefore its not on the blockchain
[00:41:08] Coinstructors: to date no crypto has been stessed tested fo this
[00:41:28] Coinstructors: hence regulators will use this
[00:41:33] Coinstructors: against overstock
[00:41:59] Jonathan Briasco: Coinstructors: Overstock is working directly with the SEC and FTC to make this happen, there's a lot of support for it at the governmental level
[00:42:30] Coinstructors: I know that
[00:42:32] Coinstructors: already
[00:42:32] Jonathan Briasco: I think your objections are based on the old way of doing things, because this isn't a good way to do things from the perspective of a financial monolith
[00:42:34] Nick Rathman: I could imagine something where it tries and match up and handle trades in the local database as best it can, and then push stuff out to the DEX for the rest of it
[00:42:38] Coinstructors: as i a speaking to the sfc
[00:42:42] Coinstructors: eu
[00:42:46] Coinstructors: side as well
[00:42:53] Jonathan Briasco: Well if you know that already then why are you talking about regulators moving against Overstock?  Tongue
[00:42:54] Coinstructors: they wat instant chain
[00:43:16] Coinstructors: i have already spoken to judd at overstock
[00:43:42] Coinstructors: im not speaking againt overstock
[00:43:45] Susanne Tarkowski Tempelhof [ Ƀitnation ]: so STOKED for you guys CP great work and thrilled to be part of the CP token family (soon!)
[00:43:48] Coinstructors: if they pull it off better for me
[00:43:59] Coinstructors: I have 7 companies wanting to do the same
[00:45:02] Jonathan Briasco: Excellent, you should get in contact with us over at vennd.io to automate your asset sales  Smiley
[00:45:27 | Edited 00:45:51] Coinstructors: but eu side is not the same as the US side
[00:45:30] Coinstructors: not the same
[00:45:50] Jonathan Briasco: That's very true
[00:46:27] Coinstructors: and the US changes its underwear like a anything else but todays
[00:46:37] Coinstructors: same as EU
[00:49:09] Coinstructors: all thats going to happen is very simple a web portal on a blockchain or fork
[00:49:24 | Edited 00:49:34] Coinstructors: addeing KYC and AmL
[00:49:43] Coinstructors: you get rid of bankking costs
[00:49:50] Coinstructors: but not the brokers
