Ok, I see don't such post from Phantom. And the links from Snoop and pankoguIo are pointing to counterwallet.in , sketchy site with no ssl, not sure who would fall for that .
Probably the same sockpuppet trying to scam right ?

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

I wouldn't be clicking on any of these links unless there's an actual confirmation post from PhantomPhreak, cityglut or xnova instructing to do so. Even then, why? The bug and the signature 'fix' don't sound remotely plausible. XCP price rise (and the fact many holders are secured only with a seed on a web-wallet, not armory cold-storage etc) will make it an attractive target for script kiddies |

yes incognito mode is the way to go when using counterwallet.
as a rule, big chunk of coins should be stored with counterpartyd, and transfer only small amount to counterwallet for everyday use.

Wow...i suppose impersonation style hacking was only a matter of time huh? I think they call it "social engineering"?

I'm on my 2nd counterwallet wallet. The first one I was using it on regular mode browser and it may be normal behavior (due to bitcoin core of change addresses) but when it started creating new addresses I didn't create; I immediately opened a new wallet in incognito mode and have only logged in on this new wallet in browser incognito mode. I have not seen new addresses being created. |

+1. I'll add that XCP can be stored on any bitcoin address (in any wallet) as long as you have access to the private key. |

Reposting this since apparently according to some users, "this new contracts feature has not even been proven to exist"...
The result is hosted on GitHub ( https://github.com/CounterpartyXCP/counterpartyd/tree/contracts) and open for public testing. Today, you can take Turing Complete Ethereum code, or write your own, and run it on Bitcoin with Counterparty. Anything that one could ever do with Ethereum, one can now do with Bitcoin and Counterparty.

Yes, as long as you can view the private key. To gain access to the XCP again you should sweep the private key within Counterwallet. I recommend you practice with a very small amount first. |

1btc turning into 10k is nothing. NXT turned 1btc into a couple million if you bought at ICO and held.
speaking of... what was the NXT ICO price? i just got involved in crypto leading up to last bubble... litecoin/peercoin/namecoin was still cool, heh and the NXT UI looked like crap :-p 21BTC collected at IPO, now around 51000. Peaked at around 120000. |

Just to clarify.. I can send my XCP to *any* Armory BTC address, print the backup and be completely safe? I read the tutorial on offline addresses but I wasn't aware that any address is fine. |

First of all, that graph is a horrible simplification. Secondly, XCP hasn't seen a real sell-off yet. Only now are any people who might sell it if a hint of bad news comes establishing any sort of position. I think to this point it's been people who did their homework.
Yeah, it's true. XCP is very hodl in strong hands. A substantial amount of burned coins are still in their place. |

First sellers ($25-$10) have buy with cheap price huge amount coins and they have make lot of money already and they building sell walls also...? |

I have a basic wallet question if anyone can help. If I have an Electrum offline cold storage wallet for my BTC, can I use one of those wallet addresses for my XCP?

You can use literally any BTC address as long as you know the private key (so you can import it into Counterwallet). |
