Detect Counterparty/Colored Coin transactions

[LivInTheLookingGlass]

Possibly not feasible with current setup, but needs investigation.

[LivInTheLookingGlass]

Access to the data field of the transaction will likely be necessary. This probably cannot be done (efficiently).

[LivInTheLookingGlass]

Impossible until blockchain.info updates their API, or I move to a different one entirely. Closing for now. :(

https://counterpartychain.io/api

May be possible!

[LivInTheLookingGlass]

Step 1) Add node
Step 2) Make ajax call to https://counterpartychain.io/api/transaction/{TXID}
Step 3) have success check if the "success" property is 1
Step 4) if it's 1, change the node color to purple
Step 5) change source color to pink, destination color to white

Pros: This is a cool feature
Cons: This might murder performance if I'm not careful

[LivInTheLookingGlass]

Looking at data: this murders performance (doubles CPU utilization) for almost no gain.

I'll publish what I have now in a seperate branch, but I won't be putting it on the main unless it can be optimized much further.

Colored coins API

These could be handled by two web workers. It would still increase transaction latency by several seconds, but it would be a good way to start.
