Announcing a contest to write the weekly blog.  I will try this out for a couple weeks and see if this is something that can be worked out by folks in the community.

The award is 0.5 Dev MSC  (from the Dev MSC allocated for Head of Communications) for the blog post that gets the most hits.

See rules here https://trello.com/c/gbrOtwVK

I reserve the right to change the rules at anytime to ensure fairness and quality content.

We are increasing the bounty for adding MSC support to an existing, established, crypto exchange.
The bounty is being increased from $2,000 to $10,000.

I want to take this chance to remind anyone that all bounties include a proportional amount of Dev MSC in addition to the fixed dollar amount.

There are several ongoing attempts to add MSC to the alt exchanges ... only the first one will get this bounty.

Great opportunity everyone - we are looking for a CTO!

https://trello.com/c/ydovvlia/65-rbb-cto

Key responsibilities

To execute on our vision and implement the technical solutions, utilizing the developers we have on our team, as well as hiring more developers as needed. The scope include overseeing several projects, including the various Master Protocol web, desktop and mobile clients, the mastercoin.org website and related assets, and other projects.

This would be a joint coding/management position, at least at first. We need the CTO to have hands on experience with the various projects that we are developing. and spend about 30-50% of his time actively coding (at least while the team is small enough to justify it). The rest of his time should be spent on technical, project, and people management, including hiring more developers, managing bounties, and spec development.



Note that I would strongly consider J.R for this role if he were to become available full-time for Mastercoin (this was in fact the trigger to his post about selling MSC). Still, this doesn't mean the position is locked in, and anyone is encouraged to apply.

Required Experience
1. Experiences of successfully managing teams of at least 5-10 people  is required, or other relevant proven track record is required.
2. Experience with scalable software architecture, web, mobile and desktop development
3. Strong Bitcoin background - a must.
4. Recommended: Prior experience as CTO

How to apply
1. Study up on Mastercoin
2. Please send your resume & cover letter to ron@mastercoin.org plus ping my on skype at ripper234
3. Recommended - send us your plan of "what would you do in your first month on the job"

Just a small correction - this isn't in fact a Role Based Bounty, but rather a one time bounty.
I synced with Taariq today and explained the details.
