Hi I'm involved in a cryptocurrency related project and we are looking for someone that can work magic with javascript and jQuery.
We are also hiring an experienced C++ developer.
We aren't ready to release details of the project but it is very exciting.
We are funded and based in the SF bay area. We strongly prefer people local but can make exceptions for the right person.
please email jed ! open coin dot com if you are interested. Please send links to things you have done preferably outside of work/school.

This Jed, by the way, is the original creator of Mt. Gox. And this project and offer is very real.

OpenCoin? I hope this not a competitor to Bitcoin, but instead a complement to bitcoin.

It isn't related to opencoin.org
We are going to change the name before making the project public.

If it doesn't complement bitcoin this thread needs to be moved to Alternative Cryptocurrencies. |

If it doesn't complement bitcoin this thread needs to be moved to Alternative Cryptocurrencies. It doesn't pigeonhole well into any of those categories. |

I would say it compliments it. One thing you can do with it is exchange bitcoins for fiat without the need of a centralized market such as mtgox. Which will be very useful for bitcoin.

Sounds like a ripple implementation. Maybe using Open Transactions. We need this! EDIT: Maybe you guys are making a new coin, sort of like MintChip which is irreversible and allows exchange of bitcoin for mintchip/CAD and thus fiat. |

So are you going to compete with Mt. Gox or are you working with them. Seems like after you sold Mt. Gox there would be some sort of non-compete agreement.

Even if it succeeds as much as is imaginable, it's still not going to make exchanges obsolete, just change their business model a bit. |
