Title: How much would it cost to hire bitcoin developer Post by: MrKain on April 28, 2013, 01:49:50 AM Hi, I'm building a project, and would like to hire a bitcoin developer to integrate into my service - I can use bitcoind via rpc/json just fine - but am unhappy with the wallet system that it comes with. Basically, I need to hire someone who can talk bitcoin protocol, so that keys/accounts etc are kept seperate to the bitcoind software - ( im assuming this is where rawtransactions come into play ?) Anyway,, how much would I be looking at to hire someone ?

Title: Re: How much would it cost to hire bitcoin developer Post by: DannyHamilton on April 28, 2013, 05:41:50 AM I've got 25 years programming experience. I've worked with BASIC, Pascal, C, C++, Java, Javascript, HTML, PHP, CSS, Bash, Ksh, AWK, SED, MySQL, Oracle, Informix, MS DOS, Windows, SCO Unix, Apple OSX, and various forms of Linux. I've got a good understanding of Bitcoin, and I can adapt and pickup new skills quickly if you need.
I could probably offer 10 hours of development per week on a project that will take less than 60 hours total. I'd be wanting $250 per hour or the equivalent in Bitcoin. I suspect you'll find other programmers that will help you for less. My time is valuable to me, and I've already got a full-time job that I can live off of, so I'd need the incentive to put in the effort.

I'd ask 20 an hour or a down payment of 1000 dollars, your choice
I think we need to make a few concessions to catapult bitcoin into the future. |
