I think this is genius.
Call me naive but this is a really nice idea. Reminds me of flattr except it's automated. The idea of having bounties to various project issues and setting up a commit/pull-request payout could be a real incentive for a lot of people to contribute to actual open source software.
Bitcoin is just the icing, makes this really well integrated and anonymous too. I can't wait to see where this project leads us to. Maybe an actually fully decentralized open source employment career?
- mateuszf 13y agoOne thing I see as a problem here is that anonymity enforces very careful code reviews focusing on security imlications of the changes.
- matthudson 13y agoI think that can be a feature as well. Also, are the contributors anonymous in the sense that you have no way of knowing the identity of the contributor? Or, anonymous in the sense that the contribution originates from a particular pseudonym?
