I'm trying to understand all this. What is the difference between counterparty and clearinghouse? And why would one choose one platform over another? Are they both compatible with btc? A good friend of mine told me to come here and check out clearinghouse, he said that is the platform his company is actively looking at implementing into their business (a gaming company) much like how overstock is doing with counterparty.
The main difference is which block chain each system is on. Counterparty rides on Bitcoin so benefits from the best network security and longest track record. I don't know what tweaks Clearinghouse has made but it is conceivable that they have some features that don't know xist or aren't enabled for Counterparty.
