Re: I know a bit of cryptography, what can I do about it?

I am a junior programmer and I know only cryptography basics, e.g. what hashing can be used for, how you encrypt your communication channels with asymmetric cryptography, message signing, what certificates are for, some PKI stuff, etc. Maybe in future I could audit cryptocurrency-related software, now I am playing with security things as well.

But the point is, I am not proficient in all of these things, just a beginner. I didn't even fully grasp the way bitcoin protocol works, I can tell you only about pieces of it.

I really would like to contribute to cryptocommunity, I can dedicate my time to any of activities I mentioned(except cryptography: I can learn much about it as long as it doesn't transform to mainly mathematical stuff).

And particularly, I'd like to do it all for money. Is there any project you can think of I can participate in?

If you think this topic should belong elsewhere, let me know.

I think you can go to services board and look if there is something there that you can do. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0
There are sometimes people who offer some bitcoin to developers, for certain services. Maybe it will interest you.

Additionally, you can go to this Reddit Community, Jobs4Bitcoins https://www.reddit.com/r/Jobs4Bitcoins/

However, I will recommend that you do not waste much of your time working now.You are young, and the most important is that you develop your skills now (and make much more money later)
