Bitcoin for Forum Posts: Want to Hire a Developer

I run a MyBB based discussion forum and I want to give users additional incentive to post and discuss within our forum. Bitcoin and cryptocurrency as a whole seems to fit this model perfectly as it allows us to give users very small increments of a dollar. Frankly I lack the technical skills to develop something of this sort and I would like to try and have it as airtight as possible in regards to not running the risk of theft. I am looking to hire someone for this project and they will be free to distribute/sell their software once it is installed on my forum, there is no exclusivity agreement.

To prevent spambots and spam abuse there will be limits [which will have the option to be configured in the ACP or file config] to how much people can earn in a day. So here is an example:

User Post Requirement: 25 Posts [Number of posts required to earn points.]
Daily Post Limit: 10 Posts [Number of posts a user can earn credit for daily.]
Bitcoin Reward Amount: .0001 [Just as it says on the can.]

I'm thinking that maybe storing a fictional amount of Bitcoin/points and then when a user initiates a withdraw [.01 minimum] I receive a PM with their requested withdraw address and I send out to Bitcoin manually.   


Interest in helping out with this project, input on methods and usability, or just general comments welcome.
