Re: [ANN][XCP] Counterparty Protocol, Client and Coin (built on Bitcoin)

Let's say I want to put out a broadcast with a fee of .01 (or 1% of the bets made on the broadcast) - it would look like this:

python3 counterpartyd.py --rpc-password=PASSWORD broadcast --from=ADDRESS --text=TEXT --fee-multiplier=.01

The text of a broadcast is a string. If you want to publish a value later on, then the syntax is:

python3 counterpartyd.py --rpc-password=PASSWORD broadcast --from=ADDRESS --text=TEXT --fee-multiplier=.01 --value=VALUE

Does that help?

I don't understand why there are two commands nor what they do.

For the first command, is the fee of 0.01 something I have to pay?

For the second command, do I need to pay for each update I make? If so, do I pay in BTC or XCP? Finally, where is this information stored? In the bitcoin block chain OR does counterpart have its own block chain?

Thanks.

Anyone?

The first command is just a limiting case of the second command. fee_multiplier is the fraction of every bet made on your feed that you get paid in fees. All of the data are imbedded in the OP_RETURN output.
