What are your favorite projects?
You forgot a few very important projects:
Vennd - www.vennd.io
Medici
My favorite is Vennd because it is a very simple idea which is being executed very well and is setting a high standard for quality and a good example for other services wishing to interact with the Counterparty Protocol.
All of those are based on the Bitcoin blockchain, correct?
The issues are: coin-based and small data.
My suggestion is an event-based blockchain is necessary. Ok. So who pays for the data storage? See my other posts.
I’m a fan of FoldingCoin(if you have a GPU, start folding with them!), LTBCoin and of course the Medici announcement is huge.
I almost forgot, blockscan.com is a great tool for Counterparty and has a very productive and responsive developer.

Does Medici have a website yet? I’m writing a list for CounterparrtyNews.com (under development).
I don’t think Medici has a website yet and in my opinion it probably won’t have one for a while. It would be prudent to perform a certain prerequisite amount of regulatory research and interaction before launching the website/offering.
Does anyone have the time/skills to create a Counterparty Protocol Ecosystem Diagram showing how all the various projects relate to each other, depend on each other, build on each other etc…
A very interesting Vennd.io article - http://bravenewcoin.com/news/vennd-powers-next-gen-crowd-funding/. It mentions a few more projects…
Projects currently in development are:
- FoldingCoin (www.foldingcoin.net).
- Permacredits (http://permacredits.com)
- BitNPlay (www.bitnplay.eu),
- The Dream Channel (www.thedreamchannel.net)
- bitSIM (www.bitsim.co).
Hi All, thanks for the interest. Yes both BitNPlay and The Dream Channel will be related to Counterparty. More specific information will be revealed in the coming weeks.

Nice list but how are BitNPlay and The Dream Channel related to Counterparty? I can’t find any articles/info about their integration. Is it discussed in Facebook mainly?
Also, the http://www.permacredits.com link leads to a broken Coindesk link.
Indeed, they may not be related to Counterparty. I just assumed that they might be since they are related to Vennd.io.
BitNPlay does have it’s own currency/asset - Greenbit. But that doesn’t seem to be a listed asset on Counterparty currently.

No problem, thanks for all the awesome work! Looking forward to hearing more in the future.
Have you thought of making a decentralized version of Vennd? Where the operation of a Vennding Machine is handled by multiple entities rather than one instance? That might tie in nicely with the Proof of Stake side chain that I am fleshing out here - https://forums.counterparty.io/discussion/418/the-crossparty-protocol#latest.
BitSIM is the one that inspires me most. It will be possible to trade and create XCP assets and functions using any cellphone. People even in remote and very poor places will be able to actively participate in global finance for the first time (in human history…).

More news to come…
Really quick attempt at a block diagram of the ecosystem. I’ve left a lot out (sorry!), but it’s a start. Does anyone have the design skills to create and maintain a decent visualization of the Counterparty ecosystem?
How can a thread like this exist without mentioning that we can already trade with Gold and Silver? https://www.digitaltangibletrust.com/
The list updated with brief descriptions :
- BetXCP and XBet.IO are betting platforms utilizing Counterparty’s trustless escrow.
- BitSIM is a smartphone platform under development.
- DigitalTangible is a precious metals dealer that issues gold and silver tokens backed by bullion.
- FoldingCoin is a coin which comes into existence by folding proteins – medical research at Stanford Univeristy.
- GEMS is a social network under development.
- Koinify and Swarm are crowdfunding platforms.
- LTBcoin is the token of the Let’s Talk Bitcoin network.
- Medici is a stock market platform under development.
- Permacredits is a currency for the Global Permaculture Movement.
- Storj is a decentralized cloud storage system under development.
- Vennd is software that enables automatic conversions between Bitcoin and Counterparty assets – a sort of vending machine.

Woah, there is a large amount of quality projects building on top of Counterparty!
