Just a warning to buyers: XCP burners (basically early adopters) have formed a cartel (chk xcp thread) and jacked up the price artificially by 10x-15x times. Please don't accept these prices as the coin is still a prototype and isn't worth that much yet. They are a greedy cartel

IMHO it's still cheap! It's the first that achieved a runnable dist.exchange!

Sir BiggestFish, I am sorry but I made a deal in private with one of the seller, you can withdraw my buying proposition.
Sorry for all the trouble, and thank you for your time!

You are welcome to address Nxt thread with these accusations, they will be more correct there.

XCP is one of the most fairest distribution to the moment, with a very small amount of majority holders, according to taint analysis:

Speaking of the XCP itself, it already provides much more then anything promised by competition at the moment.

It's a true BTC - spirit community driven effort, and it will only pick up in steam.

Selling 500 XCP for 5 BTC, buyer sends first or good escrow.

I accept small fractions of 100 XCP = 1 BTC each.


In the near future it will be 1 BTC = 10 XCP

UPDATE: please remove my sell order. Sorry for the inconvinience. I realised that selling now is wrong, since its the first worlwide dist.exchange implementation and could easily reach 1 XCP = 1 BTC.

I'm willing to pay 2btc for 800 xcp.  PM me if you are interested.

Lol. People selling their XCP for so cheap

Is the Dex actually implemented and running bug free?

The Dex is actually implemented and running fine. There have been sample trades made on the exchanges. (There are some minor issues with rounding of numbers, e.g., 1.99999 vs 2.0, however the developers are working on it).

I just want to remind burners that your 1XCP worth 0.02BTC now whatever compared with Mastercoin.Don't sell now.It will give you bigger surprise soon!

I think my offer of 800 XCP for 8 BTC is fair market price.

.01 btc/xcp puts the XCP market cap at 26,487 BTC

26,487 BTC market cap puts Counterparty as the #10 crypto on http://coinmarketcap.com/

Right above Protoshares and right below Quark.

Hmm. I'm surprised. From the amount of finagling its taken the mastercoin dev's I had come to the conclusion that it was a rather complicated undertaking.

Hi, one of the (early) testers

The decentralized exchange is, and has been, working for weeks now. http://www.blockscan.com/order_match.aspx

Alot of people might lose money in the long run

Ok, but how do you trade BTC/XCP pair without a third party/escrow. Do you still have to trust the issuer ? Is there an "issuer" for an XCP/BTC pair ?

Install bitcoin, install the counterparty client, place an order:

C:\counterpartyd>python counterpartyd.py order
usage: counterpartyd order [-h] --from SOURCE --get-quantity GET_QUANTITY
                           --get-asset GET_ASSET --give-quantity GIVE_QUANTITY
                           --give-asset GIVE_ASSET --expiration EXPIRATION
                           [--fee_required FEE_REQUIRED]
                           [--fee_provided FEE_PROVIDED]

GET_ASSET would be XCP and GIVE_ASSET would be BTC if buying XCP. Expiration is in blocks.

Submit, and wait for an order match. Then use btcpay to pay for the order.

There, completely trustless and decentralized.

The asset "BTC" is just an asset name though right?

These aren't actual Bitcoins you're buying then.  You would be buying an asset named "BTC" in the Counterparty system?

EDIT: nvm, you can actually directly trade BTC for XCP

You are just buying an asset named bitcoin. With the mastercoin implementation you are actually exchanging btc for msc.

So xcp has an asset exchange, not a Dex.

Counterparty trades actual bitcoins ('BTC') for XCP, and it has a much better order matching system.

Damn that's crazy.

Mastercoin is offering a 300 BTC bounty for such a feature, and it still isn't fully implemented.
