Title: $100 Bounty for a snapshot status of XCP (Counterparty)
Post by: jjaquarius on March 10, 2014, 04:56:22 PM
The Mastercoin Foundation is gearing up for some big announcements and we're giving away Bitcoins for helping us out!


We would like to know what is new in XCP.
We will pay 100 USD (in BTC) for a snapshot status of XCP-Counterparty project.

 The research should detail what and  to what extent each feature is implemented.

If you are familiar with Bitcoin and the Crypto Ecosystem, this is a perfect opportunity to investigate what progress is already made.

Anyone wishing to contribute should contact judith@mastercoin.org and specify what he/she is going to research, in order to get an approval for the planned effort.

4 completed documents will be selected for consideration

The winning document will be announced on this thread and bitcointalk.org
The winner will be rewarded on April 01, 2014
Bounty starts: now
Bounty closes: Monday, March 25, 2014 at 12.00 Midnight (GMT-8.00)

Thank you everyone for entering, and please post your questions and ideas here or http://mastercointalk.org/index.php?topic=225.0

Short Version Snapshot
Every feature in the Counterparty protocol has been implemented/working for awhile now...if you run it with the command line. 
The BoottleXCP GUI is one alternative to avoid the command line.
The web wallet is still being tested. 
More details can be found from this post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=395761.0

If anyone wants to give it a try and get some FREE XCP, please post your address in the following thread:
https://forums.counterparty.co/index.php/topic,118.0.html

Or just PM me there on the official Counterparty forum.

Here's what will happen:
 1. I will send you 100 CAKE.
 2. Once 10000 CAKE have been given away, I will issue an XCP dividend to all the CAKE shareholders.

Long Version
I also plan to try a CAKE dividend with Mastercoin someday.

Development update

New screenshots are up at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/738w1f3kgqik1za/ymr1VCWUv6

At this point we are looking to do a beta release on testnet early next week. Progress is going well, but we want to fix as many bugs as possible before we release to make the public testing process as smooth as possible, as we are still anticipating finding plenty of bugs, especially as more data is created on testnet and visualized.

We will also be formally soliciting shortly for a full-time development position to help with Counterparty and Counterwallet development. Interested candidates must have top-tier web (Javascript, HTML, CSS) and Python skills, and a strong interest in the project and a passion with the technology. The role would start out with bug fixing with Counterwallet, counterwalletd, and counterpartyd, and then move from there into working with Phantom and I on full feature development (we have a lot of cool ideas in the pipeline). We also have a need for Selenium-based test suite development around Counterwallet (using their Python webdriver), as well as counterwalletd unit test development.

Oh, and Mastercoin: You can send the $100 to address 1NgYmv5nnsVTGafV9JnR9e7mDvTDeJLfaq. Thanks! :D
