On a positive note here are the trade volumes of the leading Bitcoin 2.0 projects within the last 24 hours:

1. Counterparty   154 BTC
2. Bitshares-PTS 152 BTC
3. Namecoin       149 BTC
4. NxT                 143 BTC
5. Ripple               84 BTC
6. Mastercoin       38 BTC

I'm not sure if they include DEX Txs
Still interesting though, considering Counterparty has "near-zero" coordinated marketing at this time,
whilst I'm sure the others have sizeable budgets for such undertakings. Smiley

Counterparty is vastly superior and not based on developer greed. Thats why.

Only 'small' issue with XCP, is our lack of exposure. Only 2 nerds and 3 geeks know about it, and we can see tons of inferior coins (functionnality-wise) getting an insane value, just because of the hype. This is the only potential point of failure of XCP as of today.
Are the devs waiting for all the main tools to be up and running to start some real marketing and advertisement ? No one really knows... Like we don't really know what is going on with the current code-audit, supposing to happen now until the 19th.
Well, I guess you can't write code like crazy (recent number of commits is really huge) and have the time to write blogs and crap Smiley

Hmm blogs .. maybe we should talk about what initiatives average people can undertake to get some advertising going. I'm still planning on putting my video together, you can see an example, the cloudroid video.. the shorter 3 min one on youtube.com/halfcab123
