Hey Everyone

I'm from the Coinding team, we're one of the bitcoin companies at the 500 startups accelerator and we're looking to bring bitcoin tech into gaming to empower game developers.

This week we're doing a hackathon with $5500 in prizes to challenge game developers around the world to integrate block chain technology into videogames.

We built a bitcoin API to facilitate its implementation into most game developing frameworks (Unity, GameMaker, HTML5) so that we can get some fresh talent on board without necesarily needing to know all the nuances of bitcoin development.

To participate or learn more go here:

Good Luck!

Hey, I like the idea. And the way your API is documented!

Nice work!

EDIT: I guess the credit goes to Apiary though :)

It can be any game. You can even use the data from blockchain just to generate the world, it doesnt matter, just have to be related. For now, you can make inapp purchases just not for iOS games (working on that)
