In the _create\_dividend_ call, you can choose to pay **any asset** as dividend:

- dividend\_asset (string, required): The assets that the dividends are paid in.

Yet in the quantity description, it says “quantities of **XCP** rewarded”, which should be “amount of **dividend\_asset** rewarded”

- quantity\_per\_unit (integer, required): The _quantities of XCP rewarded_ per whole unit of the asset.

Please change the documentation accordingly on: [http://counterparty.io/docs/api/#create\_dividend](http://counterparty.io/docs/api/#create_dividend)
