Bounty for open source ByteCoin/Monero pool

[tacotime]

Hello,

zone117x has expressed interest in creating an open source ByteCoin/Monero pool:

<zone117x> hey I looked at it and it will require substantial refactoring of the codebase and there are many other pressing features needing to be implemented in NOMP
<zone117x> so its pretty low on the priority list.
<zone117x> those who are very eager for specific NOMP feature can place a bounty, and if I accept it then I'll drop the current features I"m working in order to get it implemented
<zone117x> I don't operate any pools myself so pool ops take my open source code, make money off of it, and very few people donate a small amount
<zone117x> so the harder to implement that a feature is, the higher the bounty to get me to implement it. otherwise I'll imeplement it on my own time
<zone117x> currently there are probably months worth of features higher priority to me than getting that type of coin supported
<zone117x> if there is substantial interest in getting that type of coin supported then those who want it should contribute to a bounty

I am already offering 1000 MRO for this, but I'd like to start a bounty list for such an implementation.  If we get a substantial amount, we can start collecting funds to an escrow and get this pushed out.

From Smooth:

I will be collecting the funds for the pool bounty. It sounds like we have nearly enough.

The donation address is:

I am only accepting MRO donations at this time. If you want to donate using something else, you will need to convert it.

If you want to be able to get a refund in the event the bounty is not paid out and the project is cancelled, you will need to post or PM your TXIDs and an MRO return address. Any funds received but not accounted for in this way will be donated to some other community cause.

I will post updates of the amounts received.

I have created a BTC address for pool bounty donations:

Code:

Please do not use this address for any other purpose.

I will not assume return addresses are valid. If you wish to receive a refund if the bounty is cancelled you must provide a return address to me. Any donations not accounted for in this manner will be used for some other community purpose if the pool bounty is cancelled.

2000 MRO

[David Latapie]

25 MRO. I know, I am not playing in the same league but this shows you don't have to have that much MRO to contribute! And remember; your remaining MRO will be worth more (much more) if more people are interested.

FYI, MRO is presently valued at around 20000 satoshi apiece; so 4045 MRO means 0.8 BTC at present price - and once the pool will be done (and later, the GUI wallet), expected a tremendous increase (read: don't sell your MRO once you receiv your bounty, you'll regret it later).

Had a conversation with zone117x on freenode. This is the target of $2500 (~5.5 BTC) for him to work on this: https://www.bountysource.com/issues/1967409-support-for-cryptonight-algo-based-coins

Our current 5000 MRO is valued at ~1.8 BTC at 0.000360 BTC/MRO (recent trades). I've contacted DStrange who's handling the BCN bounties about combining the funds. Since they stand to benefit, they should contribute as well.

They've already collected into BCN and BTC addresses. tacotime, please set up an MRO collection address.

[dnaleor]

I don't have much MRO. Willing to add 20 MRO
