Counterparty Newsletter - November 2022


Check out some recent news below:

Community Updates

Counterparty.io updates The Counterparty.io/projects list has recently been updated. Feel free to browse and visit projects using Counterparty. You may find something new that interests you!

New additions this month include:

  1. Barnyard Club is the lightly curated directory for humble farmers on Counterparty looking to continue farming after the successful completion of Bitcorns as well as novice farmers looking to share art and experiences around the barn. Farming is important to everyone, so a low barrier to entry and excellent support for new or first time creators is an important part of our ethos. The Farmers Consortium may be calling the shots but the farmers that participate from around the world are the ones bringing the wholesome art as food and non-GMO produce direct to your table. Join us in the Barnyard and become a member of the Club.

  2. Pepe.wtf is an all-in-one platform for Rare Pepes, Fare Rares, Fake Commons and Dank Rares. It aims to be the center social hub of the Pepe community, providing easy-to-use tools for and frictionless Pepe exploring, buying or selling.

  3. NFT Relics Explorer provides information about sales and open offers of assets on XChain and OpenSea. It also features a timeline detailing creation of various NFT projects on multiple platforms including Counterparty

If your project isn’t there, and you’d like it to be added - please contact projects@counterparty.io with a logo and a short description.

FAQs to help Watch out for a new resource coming soon to help newbies improve knowledge and provide answers to commonly asked questions. If you have any suggestions for questions, please drop us a line at support@counterparty.io.

Development Updates

Xchain.io updated - CIP25 Improvements Implementation The Enhanced Asset Information Specification (CIP25) has been implemented within xchain.io. This allows asset owners to specify contact information, multiple media types, DNS records and social media account details.

At the end of November 2022 xchain.io will no longer display content of the HTML field without user consent - this is to reduce chances of a nefarious action being taken by the embedded HTML/javascript code.

Eclipse Wallet Beta! A new chrome extension Eclipse Wallet has entered beta. fabrique.xcp has developed an extension to work with Counterparty assets. Features currently include, import a wallet using a passphrase, import addresses using private keys, issue assets, review transactions and asset details directly from your browser.

At time of writing, the Chrome Extension store is still processing the submission, but if you’d like to see it in action there is a download and instructions available from Fabrique’s Github page: https://github.com/Hakkonen/Eclipse.

CIPs exist to give the development and user community a voice in the future of Counterparty features. More info can be found at https://github.com/CounterpartyXCP/cips. If you have a great idea for improving the Counterparty experience, please get in touch.
