Wanted: Someone experienced in merged mining technology

Hi all,

We at Mastercoin have a task that requires someone familiar with the details of Mining, specifically merged mining.

How much would be a reasonable bounty in your opinion?

Document a rough plan to migrating off the Bitcoin blockchain into a new altchain

A lot of people don't know this is possible, but it is. Mastercoin isn't a specific technology, it's a project that can switch backends/infrasturcture if needed.

I think we need to brainstorm about this a bit, and see whether this can help us combat some potential future scalability issues / changes in the Bitcoin protocol. This ticket is for creating a wiki article or whitepaper documenting this scenario.

We decide on a certain block height in the future. The decision is done via decentralized voting of course.

Then we start a new dedicated alt chain which is entirely premined by holders of Mastercoin. Tokens on the new chain are initially owned by private keys of MSC holders.

Edited, instead of looking for "a core dev" only, we're actually looking for anyone qualified to review and plan merged mining.

Yeah yeah, the originally bounty wasn't for "core devs" only.
I edited this thread accordingly, it's a miscommunication, that's all.

If you can get this going man, it would be a big success for Mastercoin.
