Interested participants and bystanders can learn more at hack.ether.camp. The competition is hosted by Ethereum’s block explorer and contract analysis tool . The winning app creator gets $50,000 in Bitcoin, Ether, or any other major cryptocurrency of their choosing - at current market rates, that would be about 74.5 BTC or 4,500 ETH. Not too shabby! The competition’s second season, submissions to the hackathon will be reportedly judged by a 13 member panel featuring prominent experts from the Ethereum and Bitcoin communities. A trailer provided by the competition is embedded below. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-seaman/50000-ethereum-hackathon_b_11068074.html |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrNS4I9dbxAManfred Karrer, the founder of Bitsquare, the first working decentralised bitcoin exchange, visited us in London to launch his continental tour. The presentation wasn’t a classical product introduction, but focused on topics which are more in the conceptual and political realm: – Why is decentralization needed for a privacy protecting Bitcoin-Fiat exchange which does not require registration (no KYC/AML). – How to build a decentralized exchange (how to make it secure) – Which features of Bitcoin make it possible (MultiSig, atomic transaction solves who pays first problem). – How Bitsquare protects privacy (P2P network over Tor hidden services). – Bitsquare’s DAO model (decentralized ownership). http://www.coinscrum.com/2016/05/05/members-club-ep007-manfred-karrer/

Bitcoin’s Competitiveness In Kenya [an exposé] tl;dr Mobile money transformed Kenya. Rural Kenyans prefer to pay more, but have Mpesa’s convenience (Mobile Money competitors are cheaper). Fees could reduce drastically, if Bitcoin is used. Safaricom sees Bitcoin as competition, but competition is good for the poor end user. Western news about Kenya can be misleading. Foreigners starting a business in East Africa tend to have a better chance of success if their model is not solely based on the local market. http://www.coinscrum.com/2016/01/12/bitcoin-competitiveness-in-kenya/ |

It was a great pleasure to host two of Bitcoin’s best known foster parents, Gavin Andresen (Chief Scientist at The Bitcoin Foundation) and Mike Hearn (Vinumeris/Lighthouse), at Toynbee Hall. They shared their latest thoughts (45 mins QA session), and, no doubt, reminded us that, given time, Bitcoin can indeed prove itself to be more than capable of fulfilling its early promise and much more to boot. I hope you enjoy: http://www.iamsatoshi.com/coinscrum-qa-gavin-andresen-mike-hearn/ |
