It was alright. The speed was the big killer though. It reminded me of the nineties when I'd click on two audio songs, go to sleep and hope they'd downloaded by morning. I presume they're going to have their own faster side chains or something soon enough but doing anything at that speed is just ridiculous. Especially when BTSX exists.Paging Invictus... Empirical has a talking point to contribute for your trip to Utah. This point is extremely important and cannot be overemphasized.Mastercoin has some problems but that talking point would damage the industry as a whole and attract regulators. It doesn't help our community if Mastercoin is destroyed in a scorched earth manner.I don't agree with how that crowd sale was handled, I voiced my concerns when it happened, and I also don't agree with some of the decisions or confusion over whether or not to monetize. There should be no confusion about whether or not to monetize because that is something to decide in the beginning when you can monetize without a lot of competition.Evidently, you are responding to the thread title and not the text of this post. The "talking point" I mentioned presents a positive contrast between the speed of transactions when using Bitshares and Counterparty, having nothing to do with Mastercoin. Utah, for anyone who doesn't know, is where Overstock is based.

A settlement which happens automatically in 10 minutes it's huge.
Quote from: trader on August 01, 2014, 02:37:13 pmIs anyone else tired of seeing the tonne of coins that say that they can do decentralized exchanges? Everyone is promising it including Mastercoin, yet we havent seen anything real yet. Check this out:http://wiki.mastercoin.org/index.php/Decentralized_exchangeQuoteThe Master Protocol enables the peer-to-peer exchange of any cryptocurrency or token with any other cryptocurrency or token.Really? So why is Mastercoin tanking, and why are people still using bter.com and cryptsy if Mastercoin can do that? It seems like some people just like to blow a lot of hot air.I tried using the counterparty wallet for the first time this week so I could sell half my Proof of burn XCP and buy more BTSX.

Down at 25 on coin market cap, it looks like they are no longer a real contender.
