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

Sadly, yes, this is what appears to be happening, I like the idea behind Counterparty and was initially interested, until i did a quick workout of the maths and you're right, most burners got between 1000-1500 XCP per 1 BTC and are immediately looking to turn that round to selling you 100XCP per 1 BTC. I can understand a markup being added but not a 10-15x markup of their brand new XCP, looking to offload immediately making a massive profit. Please convince me otherwise.
