Ok understand now. There was a description in clearwallet "burn" so i thought that is the same but it isn't.

No it is not a non-argument, if it was a non-argument then OP RETURN would be used. Therefore discussing this topic is in no way ludicrous.

It is a shame that people are so dogmatic that they can not see that the use of counterparty on other chains shows how good counterparty is, the utlitly of it. I might add that since the counterparty code is open source that projects that use it would be on topic, unless this is a pure XCP topic, which it does not read as.

The data are prunable, etc., but the 1% miners' fee is only for orders selling BTC.

Ah my mistake, I must have accidentally left that out. Updated.

Pretty sure this is what's getting us all the love and adoration from Viacoin folks...

Patrick Byrne: Bitcoin Will Immensely Disrupt Financial Industry

None of that is relevant.  I'm not saying there is no value added.  I am merely stating the primary motivator behind the coins' existence.

Note that he Ironically said later that He is not tied with Clearinghouse, just a simple consultant.
He is panicking or what ?

By "copycat" I simply mean that the code is 100% copied from Counterparty and a few adjustments made to get it to work on the new blockchain.  Much in the same way that Litecoin was code 100% copied from Bitcoin and a few parameters changed (block time and mining algorithm).  Obviously people think there is some value to Litecoin, but that doesn't keep it from being a copycat.

The strength of Counterparty lies in being built on Bitcoin.  Its weaknesses also come from being built on Bitcoin.  If you want a better decentralized exchange then move to something built from the ground up to be a "Bitcoin 2.0" technology, like NXT or Ripple or BitSharesX.  (Hell, even just come out with a clone/copycat of them, they are all open source, right?)

Starting up a new coin like Viacoin with the sole purpose of having Counterparty run on top of it is asinine.  A Bitcoin-based PoW blockchain is really not ideal for a Decentralized Exchange.  Counterparty is kludge enough to make it work (and that IS a compliment), but if the Counterparty devs were wanting to build a decentralized exchange from scratch, I bet that they would NOT start by creating a Bitcoin-like blockchain to base it on.

Bitcoin is the 1,000 pound gorilla of Crypto-currencies.  It is worth 40x Litecoin and 240x Dogecoin.  It is what people think of when the word "crypto-currency" is mentioned.  Counterparty being built on Bitcoin, and having direct interoperability with Bitcoin, is its major strength.

I said it was asinine to create another blockchain just for use as a basis for a Counterparty clone, like Viacoin did. Doge already exists and has value, and it has relatively fast block times.  I think that Dogeparty at least makes a bit of sense.  Good community, blah blah.  Still though the guy(s) who made Dogeparty are receiving a lot of attention (and possibly some wealth) for basically copying and pasting Counterparty code.  That was pretty much my point.

I'm not saying that the PoS problem has been solved, but I do think that Ripple/NXT/BitSharesX all have managed to find ways to be both secure and performant.  I personally dislike Ripple and NXT (both of which I think are scammy), but I like and am invested in BTSX.  "Everything is just a derivative of other things and given fancy names" exists in any DEx (including NXT and Ripple) because, well, that's just the way it goes if you want to maintain a decentralized, trustless environment.  Even then, the system requires a bit of trust, but the trust is limited to a single vector.  And again, this points to the great strength of Counterparty: its ability to natively use BTC without any redirection or derivatives.
