Thank you JahPowerBit for his impressive BootleXCP wallet workWe would like to thank
JahPowerBit for his amazing wallet work with BootleXP and his upcoming wallet launch. We have forked our own BTT_XCP version of the wallet to create an Asset Trading Wallet. You may check out our initial
Repo fork here. We have scaled down the wallet functionality to essentialy focus on digital asset sales and physical redemption. Yes. Our trading wallet is ugly as it is our first born. however, we think asset trading is immensely difficult and we will be looking to incrementally add new wallet features that benefit dumb, lowest barrier to digital asset trading. If you have any thoughts/criticisms, we warmly welcome them.
If you like JahPowerBit's work, please donate to his efforts. We have donated 150XCP in thank yous!Proof of Donation here:

Temporary Counterparty Issuance Fee ReductionWhy is a temporary reduction in Counterparty fees important to the Counterparty ecosystem? It reduces the cost of business model testing for companies seeking to build on the Counterparty protocol. With our first customer above, we are forgoing all our XCP issuance fees to help them launch their first digital coin purchases with BitcoinTangibleTrust. The reduced counterparty fees will make this and other marketing promotions less costly so that we may survive before our burned XCPs run out while searching for a business model. We support the community in the issue of SPAM assets and expect that our use of noninteresting names will be disincentive for Spammers to hoarde asset names. We look forward to an implementation of Proof of Stake voting as the new method for fee issuance.
