A Bitcoin Business Foundation

[charleshoskinson]

I'm soliciting feedback for a bitcoin business foundation. What would you guys like to see for a non-profit group representing the needs of businesses in the bitcoin community? What should the mission of such an org be? How much would you pay to join and also what services would you expect for membership?

In fact, I have a foundation currently active offline in beijing.

I found a fact that most developers need less money (fiat or btc) than proper ideas.

A reliable bitcoin related business needs several factors combined:

Trust worthy (which is the hardest to find)
Competent (in a specific area)
Well-rounded (cross-demain knowledges)
With faith to bitcoin (speculators are dangerous)

Conclusion? Merely a foundation is not of solution.

A foundation is the starting point to bring the community together to solve many of the business adoption problems. At the very least it starts a dialogue to discuss the common problems everyone is facing and to propose solutions. It isn't a silver bullet rather a first step
