I am willing to pay 5 2.5 1 BTC for anybody who would write an article and authorized me to publish it under the public domain. Pitch an idea to me and I will think about it. If I like your idea, you will get a 4 days deadline to write your article and 3 days deadline to finish your final draft.

I am one of the most reliable employer on the market. As of May 24th, 2011,  22 articles out of 29 articles on BitcoinWeekly were somebody's writing or drawings that I paid for. The rest were written by me.

See http://bitcoinweekly.com for all the articles that been published on the site.

At the moment, I am looking for articles dealing with:

1. Cryptography
2. Bitcoin economics
3. Stories. Especially business stories detailing your exploit and your failure in the bitcoin economy.
4. Technologies.
5. History.

So, as you can see, I like all things to be related to bitcoin. It's not a full fledge magazine in technology or whatever.

If you like the magazine, don't forget to donate bitcoin to me at the address I listed on Bitcoin Weekly website. Those donations help pay for the magazine's very existence.

On the subject of economics, I could write about the concept like the social taboos around money and the practical inconvenience of paying anything less than about $5 with conventional tools like credit cards or PayPal which make it difficult to have a microtransaction-based economy (ie. people pirate songs to avoid the pain of paying in itself, not because they are that stingy about losing 99 cents), and how Bitcoin offers a way to fix this.

Argumentum ad lunam: the fallacy that because Bitcoin's price is rising really fast the currency must be a speculative bubble and/or Ponzi scheme.

Sounds good. Gimme a draft at hackerkiba___at___gmail.com by March 29. The earlier you finish it, the earlier I can review your article and see if I like it.

If it's weekly and they don't make the deadline wouldn't that just push it back a week?

Don't get me wrong, deadlines get things done.

I decided they don't make sense anymore. However, I would like one article per week.

Instead of using the Unlicense, you should use CC0. CC0 is much more legally strong for non-software works.

Cryptography is the study of compiling the password and crack password technology science. Study the objective laws of password change, applied to prepare password to keep secret, called encoding communication study; Applied to decipher the password for communication intelligence, called deciphering learn, floorboard cryptography. And Bitcoin is peer-to-peer (peer to peer) - based on network - anonymous digital currency. Peer-to-peer (peer to peer) - - mean that no central authority control money remittance channels. Instead, these money transfers task is conducted by the network nodes collective management. Anonymous means trading parties can hide your true identity. His advantage: no trust middlemen, can easily for Internet remittance. Third party can't control or stop your trading. Bitcoin transactions, and credit card almost free online payment system usually charge 1-5% of transaction costs, plus other various cost up to hundreds of dollars. Avoid the central reserve bank of bad policy and instability caused by safety hazard. Bitcoin system limited monetary inflation is evenly distributed (by the CPU in the entire network, decide to) rather than by the bank. Bitcoin is a monopoly by Satoshi Nakamoto make open source projects, currently in development testing phase

Ying, this is not how The Bitcoin Weekly works. I am not looking for generic article on cryptography or how bitcoin works.
