[WOW] $10,000 bounty for gifted mobile app developers

[NLNico]

An app where you can trade bitcoins is not allowed in the iOS app store by their rules. Even wallets are removed, like Blockchain.info. They are really strict with this, so your app will not be allowed or removed afterwards.

Blockchain's solution is a very limited app store version and a full version for Jailbroken iphones:

Due to restrictions from Apple the bitcoin wallet functionaility is not available in the app store version. However it is still available for free download with limited features.

For Jailbroken iphones the app is also available in TheBigBoss.org Cydia Repository

This is what both Gargo and Lotus mean.



I am personally focused on Android so I forgot this for a moment.

   •   Display graphs
   •   Update information in real time
   •   Show the tickers
   •   Allow users to place buy and sell orders, including choosing the order type (e.g. market or limit)
   •   Display the user’s account

iOS
The application must be implemented in Objective C and use the hitbtc API available at http://hitbtc-com.github.io/hitbtc-api/ to the extent described in the task. The application should be compatible with all devices running iOS 4.0 and higher. The app must support both the Retina and standard resolution screens.

you are funny. You will wait for iOS version infinitely with such contradictorary requirements.

I suggest you delete buying/selling and change the last requirement to iOS 6.0 or higher.

Dear Gargo!

We are flexible and willing to consider any ideas which may help us make the Requirements and Challenge Rules more convenient for developers. Constructive suggestions inspire us.
However, if we delete buying/selling it will not be trader app anymore, what contradicts main idea of the app.
As for changing the requirement to iOS 6.0 or higher, your advice is reasonable. We will update this requirement soon.

Thank you for being so attentive to details.

thanks for your fast answer. Let I explain.

If an app contains trading functionality then it may be installed only on devices with jailbreak. It could be installed even on all devices using Enterprise developer program, but it costs 300$/year and has some serious limitations.

I said about iOS limitations because old Xcode 5.0.x supports iOS 6/7, Xcode 5.1.x supports iOS 7 only, earlier versions doesn't support iOS 7.

Let me clarify. In fact, Hitbtc is initially a currency exchange. Hitbtc is not Bitcoin-based project and it’s not a wallet, like Blockchain.
All we need are your ideas for Hitbtc exchange app, and we undertake the matters of submission this app to App Store.
Thank you for your attention.
