Re: [ANN][XCP] Counterparty - Pioneering Peer-to-Peer Finance - Official Thread
Is there any way to refresh asset balances in Counterwallet without logging out/in?
Balances updated in real time, but you can try to switch between balances and "exchange" tab or any other if your balance not updated long time. Log in/logout is most ridiculous variant to update one page. 
We'll be looking further into this in the next few weeks. The underlying server changes should help with stability here (i.e. the software is designed to automatically update balances, but something is happening to disrupt that).
