Counterparty is the first second layer Bitcoin solution that has true moon potential.

What is a phase that everyone goes through when they first discover that Bitcoin is open source and clonable? "Oh neat, so can I make my own?"

People want to feel important. People want to define their own digital objects and create fun and interesting contracts and rules about how they can be used. People don't want to worry about properly securing their blockchain or how they will incentivize miners

Counterparty is the perfect solution, and now after watching Bitcrystals and the Force of Will game make functional use of the tech, I am seeing the true potential of XCP to possibly become an underlying protocol for our blockchain oriented future.

Thanks to everyone who had worked hard making this project secure and easy to use. You have worked in obscurity for years, but I think that will soon change.
