- Fairmint/LP: "max_mint_per_address" and "pool_quantity" are now normalized
- Corrected the Bitcoin transaction fee calculation

Release:
github.com/CounterpartyXCP/c…
Bitcoin assets, in fact, did not start with Ordinals.
Though truly, the Counterparty community did and still view Ordinals as very exciting and interesting.
We now have protocol level Counterparty Inscriptions that can also be valid on Ord, so theres that!
This could be the most forgotten protocol in crypto history
Counterparty put assets and NFTs on Bitcoin in 2014
9 years before Ordinals
No premine
No ICO
People burned ~2,125 BTC into an unspendable address and got ~2.65M $XCP back
Founders got nothing
Robby Dermody, Evan Wagner and Adam Krellenstein built a metaprotocol that lives inside normal Bitcoin transactions
Day one they already had a fully onchain DEX
Bitcoin Core then cut OP_RETURN to 40 bytes so they had to use bare multisig and got blamed for UTXO bloat
Mastercoin raised ~4,740 BTC in a crowdsale
Counterparty just set BTC on fire and kept building
After years quiet, core came back in 2024 with a full rewrite
By 2026 they’re shipping AMM pools and inscription-style metadata on Bitcoin again
Everyone acts like Bitcoin assets started with Ordinals
They didn’t

Counterparty tooling getting stronger! 🧛♂️🦇
We are revamping @CasaTookan. Your collectible wallet designed for Bitcoin/ @CounterpartyXCP / EVM Web3 browsing.
With better EVM compatibility, wallet import, and more.
What is the one feature you would like to have on Day 1 ?
12+ years and counting!
. @CounterpartyXCP shipped user-issued assets in 2014.
No foundation, no token sale, no roadmap. Just a protocol that kept working.
Most things launched since have not lasted a cycle.
All for me? 🥹❤️

Imagine burning 2,130 BTC in 2014 so that in 2026 the whole thing could have a $9M market cap.
The oldest asset-issuance layer on Bitcoin. Proof-of-burn genesis. Rare Pepe's home. Home of the first NFTs before "NFT" existed. Market cap: less than a Miami condo.
Never has so much history cost so little. 🔥🐸

What if your great grandfather could bust a kickflip and land bolts?
That’s pools and launchpads on Counterparty. $XCP
Seems fun! 👀🚀
xcp.fun is soft-launching on Bitcoin! A new token launchpad, powered by @CounterpartyXCP. All-or-nothing mints, liquidity locked, no platform custody. And if the launch doesn't graduate, your XCP are _automatically_ refunded. Join the fun now!
