Title: What bitcoin-related projects and works are we lacking? Post by: Malin Keshar on April 30, 2014, 08:22:42 PM Can be anything, from core developments to utterly non-computertech things. I'm thinking about pick at least 1 btc related project to work.
My opinion: 1) Site that one can offer and accept work for btc, like some freelancers sites around there. I know there is a section about that in the forum, but we lack some specialized features that professional freelancer and/or adversing sites have, like personal profiles and categories of jobs. 2) A technical book about how bitcoin works and can be used to make things. Like we have books about microcontrolers, programming languages, arduino, computer networks, game making, etc... 3) Guides to people with knowledge make make their own bitcoin-related stuffs. For exemple, their own simple offline wallet, so one can know for sure that it has no backdoors. Or how to make exchange related stuff, like trading bots or an app that will warn you if certain market conditions are meet. 4) An economic analysis about btc: his nature, what is similar and different related to other investiments, long and short terms possible impacts in economy, latents markets that might grow if btc gets more accepted, and all other stuff. I think it is hard to see at this moment, because the BTC people are IT and technical people, not people with great knowledge and study of economics, and the big economists hardly can understand, or want to understand, bitcoin.

2) See Andreas's book https://github.com/aantonop/bitcoinbook 3) I think this is a bad idea because bitcoin requires a high level of security and a fair number of coders aren't able to produce bug free code which can't be hacked. Professional, audited, open source software is the way to go. |
