#weareallhodlonaut Fundraiser
The Counterparty community has stepped up and taken part in the Scarce City fundraiser to support community member @hodlonaut with legal fees to defend his allegation that Craig Wright is not the identity of pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.
According to Scarce City’s “Hodlonaut Donation Collection page” over 2 BTC had been raised in total, with over 0.5 BTC (estimated) of that total generated by Counterparty backed lots.
Hodlonaut is due to take the stand and defend his allegations starting September 12. More details can be found on the website: https://www.defendingbtc.com/

Development Updates
Counterparty 9.60.0 released! A new release of Counterparty had arrived. Version 9.60.0 introduces new features for Oracled Dispensers (CIP24) and Reset Token Divisibility for Unused Assets (CIP03), as well as the usual bunch of bug fixes and updates.
Oracle dispensers allow you to price a dispenser in a stable fiat currency (currently USD, JPY and EUR), and regardless of the fluctuation in Bitcoin, a dispense will occur when the matching value is received.
Reset Token Divisibility is now possible if you are the owner of the asset, you own 100% of the supply and the asset is not locked.
For more detailed information on how to update your Counterparty Federated Node, see the news article.
Counterparty Improvement Proposals (CIPs) CIPs exist to give the development and user community a voice in the future of Counterparty features. More info can be found at https://github.com/CounterpartyXCP/cips. If you have a great idea for improving the Counterparty experience, please get in touch.
