    hello everyone. When setting up a dispenser, the fee is 45cents (give or take) but when i try to create im being "told" that i need 0.0025 BTC ($105) at address. Why? Surely i only need the amount to cover the trades? 😐
  • @Unch4ined #97570 02:11 PM, 29 Sep 2021

    Is it possible to send xcp from the command line (using counterpartyd I assume) without requiring a full bitcoin node ?
  • @jdogresorg #97586 03:47 PM, 29 Sep 2021
    counterparty-cli requires counterparty-lib... counterparty-lib requires a working addrindexrs... a working addrindexrs requires a working bitcoin client.... you don't have to run a full node if you don't want to... but, you do need to either build and encode the transactions yourself (like RPW does) or use api.counterparty.io to talk to a counterparty server to generate the unsigned transactions for you

    Still, if you're interested in a given card, just ask on the trading chan, it'll be more effective than xcp emails or smth. Message will go around and eventually you'll be contacted . some deals are going through private escrow ( eg: theo from nftauction )

    its a total mystery, as the wallet i sent it to, was a "Virgin" wallet also, which makes me think the address i sent it to, is a main wallet address because after that it was then sent to another address (within same wallet).

    Our meetup just make a tutorial how to issue an asset using Counterparty. This is with Testnet.

    This one?

    Correct

    Is there an image anchor function built into counterparty yet? I couldn’t find one just playing around so far
  • @XCERXCP #98014 07:02 PM, 30 Sep 2021
    Just in description and Imgur. Haven’t watched video yet so not if that’s what you mean.

    Or can use json file.
  • Good points thank you

    Just trying to find a way to tie an image / URL to the TXID

    Just started playing with this so I am very new to assets on the timechain

    Hello everybody, early hodler here from the time back when XCP devs would rebuild Ethereum's virtual machine on Counterparty in one night to one up the upstarts that was the motley crew called "Ethereum Foundation", that got overexcited over their "Touring completeness" and high profile board members, of which almost none stayed on after the initial fanfare was over. Well, a lot of things have happened and a different contender to the smart contract throne has made the race, then what many, including myself, at the time believed. A sure fire success with a head start on its competitors called: Counterparty!
    Turns out Bitcoin wasn't ready to host smart contracts for a lack of scalability and reluctance to innovate and develop what was necessary to do that, so a new chain would have to be built for the sprawling ecosystem that is now Ethereum. Now to my question:
    With developments on other chains as a template of how successful and scalable systems can be designed and the Lighning Network growing by the day and delivering after 8 years what is needed for a scalable smart contract based ecosystem to the Bitcoin blockchain: are there any plans for Counterparty to fulfill its promise and become the ONE protocol to bring all the utility of smart contracts and Defi to Bitcoin we always wanted?
    (or are we basically happy with the rare Pepe phenomenon and wait for it to fizzle out with the next bear market, sinking XCP with it back to obscurity?)

    Sorry if I went a bit overboard in the end but Im just really excited to see all right ingredients here right now for Counterparty to fulfill its promise after all these years and becone the number one network for higher applications on Bitcoin.

    I thinks that's gonna be a no but others can give you a longer answer I'm sure
  • @jdogresorg #98037 10:37 PM, 30 Sep 2021
    Counterparty IS a smart contract on the Bitcoin blockchain, and it has been working well for the past 7+ years. We have no plans to bring the EVM online. There have been some discussions of a writing a non-turing complete virtual machine, which we might do in the future... but as for now, we are focused on incremental improvements to the Counterparty protocol including oracled dispensers and updating dispensers to allow for payment using counterparty assets

    Proof-of-concept VM Development

    So i’ve recently started to develop a minimal pure python Virtual Machine tailored specifically for counterparty. I’m starting this thread to keep note of development and design decisions, and also to get input from the community regarding what should the VM do. FAQ Why not use EVM? EVM was designed with ethereum blocktimes and specifics in mind. CP has already a lot of groundwork regarding tokens, bets and a lot of useful functions that don’t need to be recoded in a smart contract. Isn’t...

    From what I can gather the plan is to fund JDog to further the infrastructure of counterparty. Unless I’m wrong there is nobody working on counterparty. Participants in the rarepepe phenomenon are the only people sponsoring the only active dev in the counterparty space. It looks a lot like fans of the rarepepe project are acting as the counterparty board, voting which projects they want pursued using their own money to fund JDog. Am I wrong here?
  • @jdogresorg #98043 11:11 PM, 30 Sep 2021
    I am creating initiatives to fund various components of counterparty via BLACKBOXES (bugfixes, general fund, server hosting, quit my job fund, etc)... myself and Javier have been working on Counterparty the past few months and have made some improvements, and that will continue in the future.

    I think this furthers my point. For anybody returning to counterparty from the beginning, what you see here IS counterparty. JDog and the community that supports him. Maybe I’m just a JDog maximalist

    church of Jdog.

    Counterparty is the community here... not just me... i'm just the dude keeping the lights on and doing what I think is best for the community to move things forward.

    I see and I am grateful that you held the torch up all those years. I also understand that the Rarepepes are a lucky shot for Counterparty since it brings attention, community and funds to the project. All I am asking is: are you confident this will suffice for a continued development into the future and throughout the inevitable bear market, which will collapse the current hype that are NFTs at least until the next crypto bubble 3-4 years down the road? Would it not be better to broaden the scope of the project and rest it on two or three more use cases? This would undoubtedly require more developers part-/ or fulltime and funds to pay for the development. But if you are ready to lead the team and share some responsibility, than I am sure millions are available for a proven and thriving project like Counterparty that can track its beginnings even further then 99% of coins alive today. It would certainly better the chance for Counterparty to remain relevant in the future, when the evolved crypto economy turns to Bitcoin as a L1 to do what is being done on Ethereum et al. The only reason why Ethereum emerged as the dominant platform for the Defi economy is because Bitcoin couldnt do what was necessary. I think with the Lightning Network it is now possible and many projects will at least branch out to the safest, most liquid and popular chain there is, which is Bitcoin, Counterparties home. Do you see the chances here as well?
  • I am happy with the slow-and-steady path that Counterparty has taken the past few years making incremental improvements to the protocol.... I am not a big supporter of trying to cram a bunch of brand new experimental features into the platform before it is clear that there is demand for said features... the value of Counterparty is having tokens on the strongest chain, not trying to be some "do-everything-to-chase-the-hypecycle" type of project
  • @jdogresorg #98053 11:52 PM, 30 Sep 2021
    I see lots of cool potential for us to do some very cool things with oracled dispensers and updating dispensers so you can pay them with any counterparty asset.... that is where I am focused next, after misc bigfixes and getting all the current features of Counterparty working properly (still broken around the edges in some instances)
