Title: Develop for an Alt Coin and Want to Let the World Know Why it's Cool?
Post by: charleshoskinson on May 13, 2013, 08:14:39 PM
The Bitcoin Education Project is looking for devs of any alt coin to record lectures for our free crowdsourced course developed in partnership with Udemy:

https://www.udemy.com/bitcoin-or-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-crypto/

Ideally, lectures should be roughly 10-20 minutes long serving as an executive summary of your alt coin, I'd recommend following this format:

  • When the currency was developed and by who
  • The philosophy behind the fork
  • Key features like how the blockchain is the same/differs, how new coins are generated and distributed, transaction verification, etc
  • Orgs and forums involved in your alt coin
  • Where people can go for additional info

Either PM me if you're interested or post in this thread and I'll PM you with contact info.

Our course was recently in forbes magazine:

Thus this is an opportunity for you to broadcast to the world your alt coins.
