This looks like a cool project that could potentially work on counterparty.

Seems some users have lost faith in open source side of project but watching this gives me extra hope that this is one of the few competent crypto projects in this space, (active for over 2 years, that's not to be sniffed at) still the most active 2.0 platform, still the only Bitcoin based smart contracting platform and still a project with a tangible value proposition. All of the team are proficient, moving in professional circles and targeting professional markets, not anonymous and in a early mover position to be well funded on Symbiont side of things in relative stealth mode with their disruptive tech. Whether or not that translates to continuing traction on the open source side remains to be seen but iMO it worked for red hat Linux et al and there is no other project like it in altcoin space other than Bitcoin itself with simultaneous chance of vertical integration so I'm happy to be a part of it.

Also looking forwards to the results of the coding competition!
